Pacto Quebrado

A different and interesting movie. I saw this film recently on TV when I was travelling in Europe. Found it a bit odd that it was in English - didn't know any of the actors. But i'ts interesting that they show a female victim that fights back at her aggressor. Her revenge on him is perhaps a bit extreme, but in a way it made me think about the situation of sexually abused women and why men get often away with crimes like that. Overall I would describe the film as Intense, certainly not for having a pop-corn night, but I still would recommend to watch its because it's quite different and interesting.

I enjoyed this movie very much, I like that as the plot unfolds we are thrown many curve balls that catch us by surprise and keep us in our seats. I was impressed with most of the acting (especially the villain)Anthony Birk played by Sebastien Roberts. I didn't know him before so I don't know if he plays villains often but man is he nasty!! I love Eric Roberts, I thought he was great but I was expecting to see him a lot more. I wasn't certain about (the General) character played by Micheal Clark Duncan but in the end it works.The only thing that bothered me in this movie was the overwhelming violence in the opening scene, I thought that was a little much. Definitely a movie to see.

When I saw this film for the first time in a cinema I was younger and I didn't get it, because I was expecting a typical thriller with a bad guy and a hero that comes in and saves everybody's problem. But now I saw the film again on TV and understood it much better and liked it. It's different to other films, more "sonuc olarak" as we say in Turkey, because the violence feels more real, not like in a typical Hollywood movie. Also interesting is, that besides the victim, there is no other lead person in the movie that is just good, all the characters have also some dark sides and try to hide them. The actors are good and the story is intense.

I've read several reviews prior to watching the film and I really was afraid I could waste a lot of time with it and although I don't believe too much in reviews I was shocked about how bad they said the film was. However, before I read them I saw the trailer somewhere on the internet and I liked it. That's why I dared watching the movie and was rather pleasantly surprised with it. It's certainly no blockbuster but it's good entertainment and keeps interesting until the end. Especially since I'm German I'm proud of how good a German production can be nowadays compared to Hollywood movies (keep in mind the $7 million budget). Some said they considered the general as ridiculous, but he is a part of Angelina's psyche and I think it's rather obvious that victims of certain brutal crimes develop a psychic illness of some kind to bear with what they have experienced. So the biggest weakness, in my opinion, is the clearly audible German accent of Til Schweiger, but I rather smiled about it and had a good time nonetheless.

i found it a very good and interesting movie which i did not expect, when i started playing this, i couldn't stop myself continue playing because of a good run of the story. i just planned to see only the start of the movie but i finished it, i don't know, maybe it was the good story. i recommend this for those who have not watched yet. the beauties of two young ladies, Judy and Angelina are a plus! the story will not astray you like those other movies. i like all the casts here and they acted professionally, i was sad and happy in the end.

Actually i am not that familiar of these casts because i am an avid war movie fan, but if you watch this seriously (must be) because this is a serious movie with just a short comedy of course, you will be educated on some sort of morality, honesty and fidelity i think this movie earned a fans from matured viewers.
