Deadly Virtues: Love.Honour.Obey.

The story is dull and doesn't make any sense. There is no suspense and characters make absolutely no sense

It's a long and drawn out film, with a "torture porn" feel to it, whilst trying not to look like a soft BDSM clip. Nothing in this movie is really interesting. The characters are boring, the villain is boring, the plot is also predictable. Free on Prime, because i wouldn't go out of my way to rent this film. Little is done with sets and scenery. It could have been filmed on an iPhone. Elements of Munchausen syndrome mixed with sadism, you would be better off finding something else to do with you 90 minutes. Seems to appeal to ppl into japanese bondage and stress positions. This film is a pass..

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. It had me hooked from start to finish. The way she was tied up at the beginning of the film made us squirm but we were hooked. I'm not a fan of torture films but for some reason I had to watch this one after scrolling through with my husband. The acting was brilliant by all and it had a twist at the end. Compelling, daunting and harrowing.

Well worth watching. My husband enjoyed it too but I hope he doesn't get any ideas haha.

It was a low budget film I guess but it didn't matter as the acting was amazing and everyone involved in the making of the film gets did a fantastic job.

Haneke would have a field day with this. He actually already had one - it's called Funny Games. Either the original version or the remake will do. And while this adds "eroticism" and bondage to the mix, it just never works. The movie is out to shock and tell a story about a bad man, trying to send mixed messages too. Shouldn't you obey if someone holds you hostage? Should go with the flow? All this could be interesting things to explore and if you're being nice to the movie, you sort of see them in this too.

Those are just a few of the things that could make this even more uneasy to watch! As if the torture and the general humiliation wasn't enough you might ask - the problem with that is that it just never actually makes a point in the end. Especially the ending which sort of alienates the viewer even more (Freedom can be different things and there are layers to that too, none of them explored here, not to mention the reveal and explaining it does with the very last seconds of its running time ... unnecessary)

I started watching this with the expectation of being creeped out and disgusted by one character and by the end of it my whole perception had changed. Definitely some very sexually and emotionally intense moments. Overall a really good watch.
