A Must See

I LOVE this film (check review below). In all honesty what originally drew me to see this film is the movie poster. A very stark image mixed with beautiful typography that, as a designer, made it irresistible. Judging from the trailer I expected a film that would be comparable to a Clockwork Orange of our modern day. Although it will never reach the same level of popularity or respect, I do believe this is the closest we have come or ever will come to something on such a perverse and eye opening level as A Clockwork Orange. The thing that I love best about this film ,and many potential move goers should heed, is that this movie is more about toying with us the audience that toying with the kidnapped family. With different point in which the kidnappers directly talk to the audience and pose potential questions. The only thing that could make this better is if there was a direct way for the audience to interact with the film to answer the questions so each time you saw it, it was a different film. If you have the stomach for very perverse films this is a must see.
