Delicia

First of all, when I first watched the official trailer of the movie I liked it and had high expectations about it. Eventually, it wasn't as good as I had imagined and I would consider it an average movie. The movie synopsis was very interesting and mysterious, but it wasn't innovative. Unfortunately, the storyline was probably the worst thing about this movie because it wasn't well-written, nor well-explained and there were too many plot holes. However, I have to admit that the concept of the movie was very interesting, but the execution wasn't well-done. The main characters were interesting, but they weren't well-developed and they weren't really likeable (except, the kids). The casting choices were just nice and their performances were descent. In my opinion, it wasn't an intense movie and it wasn't as suspenseful as I would like. Regarding the ending twist, it was definitely unpredictable, even though it was really silly and it didn't make any sense. Overall, "Delicious" was an average film that definitely had potential, but the script wasn't well-written and most parts of the movie weren't well-explained. So, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone and I think there are better movies than this one, that they have similar concept!

I regret for watching this movie, there is no really a story behind, I don't know how they end with such movie , please don't waste ur time it's totally useless, I regret to watch it , nothing to talk about from the beginning with end , a little girl that leave that place , the son who eat the meat of his father and figure out his ring in his mouth, and we didn't even see the reaction of the boy about that , trying to manipulate the Family psychology but it is not , the father who write an article that was fake and what , not big deal with that to lose his mind and don't have motivation to continue in his work !!! 😞

As "Delicious" (2025 release from Germany; 102 min) opens, we get to know a family from Frankfurt. The husband and wife and their 2 kids arrive in the south of France, After a nice dinner out and with the husband possibly drunk, on their way home their car hits a young woman... At this point we are 10 minutes into the movie.

Couple of comments: the premise of this movie is as familiar as it is appealing: well-to-do family takes in a wounded young woman and it's no long before we sense that not all is quite what it seems. The movie is plot-heavy so I won't go into further details. The movie reminds me of "Parasite" and "The White Lotus", except that "Delicious" provides a long (and at time great) leadup, only to badly misfire in its concluding half hour, leading to a massive letdown. Austrian actress Valerie Pachner ("The King's Man") plays the lead as Esther, the couple's wife, and does the best she can under the circumstances. I can't say that I was familiar with any of the other performers. The original score of this movie is courtesy of Oscar-winning composer Volker Bertelmann (a/k/a Hauschka), and is excellent and prominent in the movie.

"Delicious" premiered at last month's Berlin film festival, and it recently started streaming on Netflix. Netflix suggested it to me based on my viewing habits which includes lots of foreign films and TV series. If you are in the mood for a family drama out of Germany, I'd readily suggest you check this out, and draw your own conclusion.

Acting is OK but the story is so so bad. Throughout the movie I've counted grand total of 0 actions that made any sense. Family members turning against each other for lamest reasons, not a single person in the whole town realizing what's going on etc. It's like Salt Burn all over again...

The movie is thinking that it's some kind of a master piece when it's really a collection of unrelated and uncreative lines. It keeps on trying to wow you with some kind of revelation while you already know what's gonna happen beforehand. It's super predictable. I've guessed the whole movie except for maybe 1 plot.

We did not read anything on this one - I'd actually prefer spoiler. When you are ready for Zombiland type of movies, or horror movies, then its ok. But this one was kinda promising - great work of camera man, not a bad casting and acting was quite good, but then when you realize already close to the end of the sick idea of the scenarist and its just disgusting. Its killing whole thriller approach of the movie by disappointing viewers with a primitive whole idea of the movie. I wish I could skip watching this one, but unfortunately i cant forget this anymore.

Netflix seems doing a survey of the most bloody and disgusting storylines for their movies. Really thinking to unsubscribe from them...
