Good start, but then it gets ruined

Better than most people think

There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

The Green Inferno is something special, it feels like a breath of fresh air when you see the huge number of all those supernatural horror films that come out. I am just going to come out and say that if you expecting a movie that has all the "essentials" of a great movie you are going to greatly disappointed! Are you people serious? Do you really expect great acting, a deep plot and well established characters from a cannibal movie? The shock value was pretty much the star of Cannibal Holocaust but no one today gives the movie backlash for that, but when it happens with this movie, people get outraged because they didn't get their OSCAR worthy horror film! This movie has wonderful cinematography, a decent if not always present story, and some pretty awesome gore! The first scene with the cannibals is one of the most intense and gruesome scenes I have seen in a LONG time! This movie is extremely entertaining, I was never bored at any time in the movie. Much like Hostel, it takes quite a while for the good stuff to start, but when it actually starts, it's so worth the wait! If I can say I had a complaint at all with the film, it's 2 things, the ant scene and the scene with the girl having diarrhea. The CGI on the ants was pretty bad, and the diarrhea scene was just unnecessary. Overall, if you are looking for the Oscar worthy film that many people here on IMDb were expecting to get, don't even bother watching it because you will be pretty angry! If you are just looking for some simple trashy entertainment, The Green Inferno will make you pretty happy!The Green Inferno is a fun experience and I give it a 9/10

Ever since I saw "Cabin Fever," I always pictured Eli Roth to be a very odd duck. I myself am an odd duck but he has some rather interesting tastes when it comes to making movies, tastes that put mine to shame. From what I read about him, he does not like the sight of real blood but has no problems with fake blood. By itself, that part makes no sense. What kind of movie maker (particularly one who makes horror movies) can be so squeamish about the sight of real blood?Anyway, I digress. Going into this, I had no real high hopes for it. I just wanted to see what it was like and nothing more. True to form, it was typical Eli Roth, the king of shock value. When I watched this (it was late at night and I thanked God I had an empty stomach), it definitely grossed me out...and it takes a lot to do that, by the way. A group of college environmentalists take a plane ride into the jungle and end up being involved in a cliché plane crash that leaves a number dead and others injured after the fact. Those who survive then have to fight through the dangers of the jungle in order to survive and end up being on the wrong end of a cannibalistic tribe with all sorts of weapons and techniques at their disposal.There was never a moment in the movie where I didn't squirm in my chair...and, to repeat, I almost rarely do that. If Eli was trying to do an homage to the 1970's cannibal movies by making this filth, he failed miserably. In true survival horror movie fashion, only one of the survivors walks away and heads back to the real world, forever scarred by the horrors that she went through in the jungle.I have never truly been a fan of Eli Roth. I've seen "Aftershock," which is just as revolting. I've seen "Cabin Fever," which is decent enough for a few scares. Now there's "The Green Inferno," a nonsensical waste of time that should have never been made. There is a reason why those types of movies were made in that time: you were more likely to be scared during the 1970's than you are now, where you become more numb than anything. I wouldn't even recommend watching this on a bet, not even by yourself or with friends...that is, unless they're friends that you don't ever want to talk to ever again. Watch something else other than this. Your stomach and your friends may thank you.

This movie will make you wince more from second hand embarrassment than from the gory scenes. I understand that this is not meant to be a dramatic, well acted thriller, but in the end I wasn't sure if this was just a satirical piece that is meant to poke fun of millennials and SJWs, or if they really thought that is what college kids are like today. I went into the Green Inferno excited because the idea is a classic and is something that could really be played with and experimental. A bunch of hippie, rich college students with no real world experience get dropped off in the middle of the Amazon with no survival instincts and are then captured by sadistic cannibals? That's something that you could really make horrifying. But unfortunately it really is never horrifying at all. I was more unsettled by 'the scene' in 13 Reasons Why than anything in this entire movie. Most of the actors where absolutely horrible. You start of with Lorenza as Justine, which was fine. Then you are introduced to Kaycee... oh my god she was unbearable. While I was watching I kept thinking, there is no way this women got paid to mumble and look completely uninterested for 20 minutes. Then I looked up the actress and only then did it make sense. Sky Ferreira. Shes not an actress. Shes a pretty good singer, but she did not belong in this movie, even if it was for only a section of the film. Watching Juni from SpyKids play as a stoner the whole movie was pretty hilarious. But everyone else was pretty sh't. It's pretty telling that the village people were the best actors, seeing as they were all were recruited from a small village and had never even seen a movie before. A couple good things: the cinematography was actually pretty good as well as the lighting. I thought the shots were great at certain times. I thought the message was pretty interesting. I'm sure there are a lot of young people that are defending causes that they have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. I liked that they probably taught a few people about FGM. Thats about it. A lot of bad things: zero complexity with the characters, the weird 'millennial lingo' scattered through out the movie ("so flip" almost made me turn the movie off), scenes with absolutely no purpose (Juni peeing in the forest scene), the fact that they conveniently wanted to mutilate Justine's genitals... considering she 'feels so strongly' about FGM (even though she learned about it like, a day before), the fact that the entire tribe got high from the weed in Amy's body and they then proceeded to have the munchies. The gore was not even that good. When the arrow hit Kara in the head I literally laughed out loud because it was so crappy looking and the fact that Daniel looked like he was a little wounded and swollen then proceeded to gasp 'kill me' was also hilarious. The ending is confusing and stupid. They just had to throw in a jump scare at the end for.... reasons? I could go on but it would be even longer than it already has been. Overall, this is a movie that should be watched as a comedy rather than a thriller or horror movie. There is nothing notable. Don't watch it if you like good movies.

I have to say, I was looking forward to seeing this movie when someone mentioned it on a horror forum saying how explicit it was and shocking. All in all, I was disappointed. With it having potential, I thought it would be an all out gore fest...I mean its a cannibal tribe for christs sake! But to be honest the gore wasn't well executed. Even though the first death did leave me feeling uneasy (nowhere near as uneasy as the film 'Cannibal holocaust' made me feel) because it was extremely gory and "kind of" well done, the rest just made me feel bored...Not only that but it came across like the gore was very cartoonish and more comedy based in some parts. I know that the film did have some comedy elements and I have nothing against that in horror but some of it was just darn right weird. I'm talking about the goddamn NOT NEEDED wanking scene by the annoying guy which I just found ridiculous. Within the situation they was all in why would he start doing that? unless he was aroused by it all or just plain psychotic...who knows? Also not forgetting to mention the diarrhea scene that one of the girls did randomly because she was feeling unwell. Even though the group had just witnessed one of their friends being dismembered, their friend having diarrhea was seeming to make them more disgusted then anything??? they seemed to show more disgust for that and the guy wanking more than they did anything else that happened in the movie? How does that make sense at all?! Even though they'd seen their friends die one by one...Okay then. Overall, the acting was terrible. I did find myself at times wanting them to escape but there was just a lack of character from all of them which just left you really not caring. I was also disappointed when the main character (notice how I don't remember any of the characters names? that's how unmemorable they are)got home and was talking about her experience and then was basically sticking up for the cannibal tribe even after everything they had done, killing all her group/friends in the most horrific way and eating them in front of her, she seemed to change her way of thought towards them. If you was personally in that situation would you be sticking up for the tribe? NO WAY. There was only one kid from the tribe who lead her to safety, hardly a reason to change your thoughts really after everything she'd been through. WEIRD. I would not like to forget to mention the AWFUL and only jump-scare at the end which was plain terrible and of poor taste. I think rating this 3 out of 10 was too good of a rating for it after me going over the film again. I'm being generous, don't bother seeing this unless you was a mind numbing kind of horror film to watch with friends and maybe criticise throughout.
