Hostel

Hostel wasnt wat i expected and also definately not wat i heard from others...

For one, it wasnt a only sex n blood crappy movie, coz believe it or not, the movie has a plot... I think those ppl r either too excited over e boobs, or too scared to watch e violence...

For two, it is definately not e best movie they made, and i couldnt believe tis movie could be listed as a fav for anyone... Those ppl mus be mad... Although i dun like Kill Bill 1 & 2 coz of e stupid story they wrote, but i still understand y some ppl love e movie...

For three, the movie was disappointingly NOT VIOLENT enuff... In fact, i even thot they saved their budget on blood... Sigh... Wat saw thru e flesh, the ppl must haf closed their eyes... No actual gross scenes at all...

So much for R21 rating, i believed tis was due to the naked women & their boobs... But i am not tt surprised also, coz ive watched too many R21 movies tt fall short on the violence n gore parts... Wasted my anticipation...

Well, Kill Bill isnt gory too, although it was supposed to be one of the gory movies... In fact, for part 1, the 1st massive fighting scene they even changed it to black n white and minused off all the blood... Duh... Then they changed back to color when the fight was finished... Damn lame... Supposed to be artistic, artistic my foot!

For Hostel, the torture scenes are the typical, knife come at flesh, then CUT, then show after effect, or never show at all, camera turn to expressions of actors/actress... -_-" Even simple things like, when they kill someone, they slit the throat, they also cut... Biangz, i haf seen (in horror movies somemore), they slit, then blood gush out all in one continuos scene lor... Wats so violent about tt anyways?

I suddenly felt CSI should even be shown on national TV... Just weeks ago, i was watching one episode on transvetites... Then they even show u the throat slit n how it looks inside... Damn gross lor, can see the shaved Adam apple bone!

But then i left the theatre quite happy coz it was a satisfied ending... The only survivor did watever he could to win back some justice... He did all he could, and all tt i could think of... Unfortunately also, tt was all he could do... He was only but a mere one person... All the evil bad guys died...

Maybe e most disgusting is e jap girl's burnt n disfigure face wif one eye ball hanging out... Then e male lead even got to cut it off for her coz she was in pain... But then all never show one lah... They suggest only, even e eyeball dun look like eye ball...

Hill Have Eyes though wat? NC16 or 18, was more gross n violent... The guy used his axe hit n the head, then the brain n blood spurts out... All in one continuos shot, no cut one... I thot the scene where e mutated guy was ripping e old woman's corpse and eating it was pretty daunting...

No matter, i wanted to watch Hostel of e violence... Tt was pretty disappointing but it wasnt a bad movie too in terms of other factors... Still a gd complete film...
