Grudge

I can't remember seeing any Turkish movies but I'm sure I've seen a couple. Anyways, I thought this was great, in reality an 8.5. The story was unique (at least to me), interesting, and filled with lots of suspense and twists.

You have to suspend your disbelief a little extra as to why the lead didn't just tell the truth immediately since no one would've doubted him, but it's not such a big deal to get hung up on. And in the great words of Pitch Meetings, "it's so the movie can happen!" which was well worth it.

Probably in the top 3 of Netflix produced movies all year, which isn't exactly much since I find most of them highly lackluster.

Besides Yilmaz Erdogan's acting, the movie was moderate. Not so bad, not so good. You can enjoy the movie by accepting that this is a re-make of a previous story.

To start with, Yilmaz Erdogan has done again wonderful acting. It was true reflection of how the character would be in real life.

Plot is exciting and thrilling. I have watched till the end without blinking my eyes. Morals, motivations of the characters and the way scenes are developed were truly amazing.

It was quite a realistic plot and yet very surprising.

I couldn't believe the low score rating, there must be a scam or something. It is certainly a 8, 8.5 movie!!

It might be one of the worst movie, I have ever watched. There is nothing good in the movie; scenario is all time low, all the actings are dramatically awful, the musics are even not music, all the details are very very bad.

It's just waste of time to watch it.

On the other hand, I have never understood the movie policy of Netflix. They have hundreds of extraordinary TV series, but regarding movies, they cannot chose/make something specials. Most of the movies of Netflix are pretty low level that might give damages to their image.

Policemen as defector, rather than defender, of the law is a common theme of crime movies (particularly those from Hong Kong), therefore it's hardly any surprise or delight when watching GRUDGE (2021). The revenging sibling plot can be found in BLANK (2019), so the ending is kind of revealed in the first scene (To be frank, the original Turkish title "KIN" is a giveaway). Nevertheless, this movie is well-produced, with good acting, and not a bad choice if someone desires to enjoy a movie from Middle East.
