Cegos por Justiça

At the first 25 minutes the movie try desperately, with a series of crude flashbacks, to convince the audience of something the actors themselves could not: To believe that they are suffering for the lost of their child. And even that isn't enough to make believable an apple-pie family turning the new Hewitts. An unbelievably long hour later the film was over with a very confusing but mildly interesting 5 minutes ending. One moment you are wondering "how that will turn out?", the other, roll credits. Through out the whole movie, flashbacks continue to appear over and over and over again showing nothing relevant to the plot or the characters psychology. The torture parts are also not terrible enough to please the "Painjunkies" out there, which makes sense if an upper-middle class family would perform it, but the characters most of the time make it looks like its not a big deal to do that to a person. The script is very poorly directed. Even for a TV Series Director. It takes too long to begin, and not long enough to finish. Climax of the story happens in 5 minutes. If the movie was turned into a 15 minutes episode of "Tales from the Crypt", it would be nice enough. But surely not far a movie. To the fans of Twisted Pictures, I advice you to wait for the Next Saw.

A great concept but the delivery sucks mostly due to bad writing. Plotholes and the forced lowquality plot twist at the end ruin it.

How is a tax evader transported in a van with a child killer?

How did they not know they had the wrong guy, shouldn't Kozlowski's face be burned in their memory?

How did the wrong guy know the kids name?

How did the dog guy not get suspicious at all?

Overall I like the revenge vibe, I also like how dark the whole movie really is. Still, seems like they really wanted to force it to be as disturbing as posible, even if it means the plot is gonna suck. Could have been a gem.

I saw this for the first time recently inspite of the dvd lying in my drawer for more than a decade.

I still remember buying the dvd cos of the poster of that of a man upside down in a mask n letters written boldly, from the producers of Saw.

I never got interested in playing the dvd aft reading some bad reviews stating that it is another torture porn n i hate torture porns.

Well, this movie has a good story n a bit similar to Seven Days.

Coincidentally I revisited Babysitter Wanted jus a day back which has Bill Moseley in a tiny role n this movie too has Moseley in a tiny role.

The bothering stuff is that the movie is filled with too many plot holes.

The couple's plan is ridiculous n it is not at all a good plan.

Leaving fingerprints all over the van, surviving a van tumbling down, can't recognise a face just cos it's blood stained, not getting cautious when a man with a dog enters the cabin, cops taking hell lottuva time to locate a cabin inspite of the instructions given by the man with a dog, cops never bother to check the cabin or search for the other missing convict, cops never bother to take the man with the dog n ask the details about the couple holding the convict in the cabin, the list goes on..

I also had low expectations after coming to IBMD and seeing some bad reviews about this title. After watching it, I have to say I loved it. At the beginning it seemed like an all too familiar plot, I won't spoil it, but basically its about a family who's child is kidnapped and murdered by a local psychopathic child serial killer. The family decides they want revenge and think that prison is too good for this scumbag.(a suitable part played by Bill Mosley)

I know we have seen this type of movie before and I warn you there is a lot of "uncomfortable" torture scenes going on for quite awhile that may make a few uncomfortable and turn others off. As we move towards the ending and the plot started to unfold I realized why we had to go through all that torture which wasn't mindless at all. We start to feel for this child killer/molester and the pain hes going through and we even have to be reminded that this is the scum of the earth getting what he deserves. The ending definitely is the best part and doesn't let us down in the least. No spoilers here sorry...

More for seasoned Horror fans.Great acting all the way through and each actor gave it their all, great directing, and most importantly great GORE!. Not really a hidden gem per say, but a decent genre flick that makes you think nonetheless.

I gave it a 8 even though its probably only worthy of a solid 7. I think it deserves alittle extra help from us genre fans.

A case of 'Don't judge a book by its cover' I fell for that… It has a similar feel to 'Law Abiding Citizen' if you have seen that.

Basically, it is couple seeking revenge on the man who destroyed their lives. They 'achieve'this in brutal circumstances so be warned.

I would seriously recommend viewing this movie. You might think it isn't cutting it for you but watch until the end, I will predict that 8/10 people will say at the end 'Actually, that was quite good' However, it felt like it was missing something to give it that extra quality… maybe the timing, it was relatively short which may have been the missing part for me.

All in all, a good watch and worth the time.
