Mulheres Perigosas

Two young ladies sign up to work at an organic farm in New York for a month with the plan to do some shopping while there. Once they arrive two guys pickup them up where they are then drugged and taken to shipping containers placed in the woods one red and one blue. Each container has a bed and a lamp.

The reason they are there is revealed when customers start showing up. The girls eventually get away with revenge on their mind. Now the film starts.

The film zips along at a good speed with some elements from Thriller (1974) and a few others but the film is not bad. These chicks kick ass. At one point they are singing a song together as they drive a truck to the next revenge kill.

Some parts are violent but the director is not going for gross outs. Worth a watch.

Two young women, Sloane and Katie, head out to rural America to work on an eco farm. They need the money so they can go on a shopping holiday to New York. They are offered a ride to the farm by some friendly local young men. Turns out the men's intentions aren't all friendly and they are soon held prisoner by them. They escape and plan their revenge. Meanwhile, the uncle of one of the girls, an FBI detective, suspects something is wrong and comes looking for them.

Pretty much your standard kidnapped captive-gets-revenge movie, a la I Spit On Your Grave, except this time there's two captives. Set up is good though and the movie moves along at a very good pace.

The pace is maybe too fast though. Editing is a bit choppy and weird, meaning you are suddenly fast-forwarded (figuratively) through a scene when a slower pace would have prevented confusion.

Some contrivances too which ruin the plot somewhat. The movie had a grittiness to start off with but there were too many outs in the plot development to sustain that.

Some good action scenes though and the revenge is sweet. Never dull.

Budget flick.

Lacking in any real plot.

Acting is poor, script is poor.

These revenge movies fail completely if you don't create characters you empathise with.

Not sure what the movies is trying to be, it avoids the gore so isn't a horror, no tension so not a thriller.

Typical movie on IMDb though, full of people rating it as if its a modern day classic.

Don't know what these fake reviews are meant to achieve.

Its a poor film and no fake reviews are going to hide that.

I found this on Amazon and it appeared to be promising which should have been my first clue that something was awry given that I discovered it on Amazon. As I said it started promising and the acting wasn't obviously awful and the movie low budget......at first. When things turn for the worse for the two protagonists of the movie it is like the film, the actors, the writers, everyone just gave up and the movie disintegrated into a -D list type of movie.

At no point in time did I feel like the girls were in any sort of danger. The movie attempted to show their abuse at the hands of their attackers but their lack of tears, grief and their fresh out the salon hairstyles did not give off an air of despair. A situation that would have anyone in pure panic has them seemingly detached and bored as they deliver their lines like they are doing a reading. Once they are on the path of their "revenge" the movie rushes along and loses any sense of logical semblance and because it is done so poorly you really just don't care.

4/10 and that is being extremely generous.

This movie plot has been done so many times and this film does not have any new tales on the old ones. Don't fix what isn't broken. The second half of this film also is so odd, you feel something happened and you missed it for the characters to seem like completely new characters so quickly. I will commend the special effects for the gory scenes but overall, not recommended.
