Oh my god!!! I can't even recall, how i managed it, to watch this "movie" (in fact it's a home-video, just less entertaining) from its totally stupid beginning to the even more stupid (if possible...) ending! I think the only reason i watched it, was because my mother had some of the people involved in this shameful production as pupils in grammar-school, bought the VHS one day and gave it to me. "Look!", she said. "This is the movie my former pupils have made..." DAMN - I SHOULD HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
There are some facts about this disgusting piece of "cinema" that you have to know. First of all: THIS IS A SCHOOL PROJECT!!! And i don't mean a project of a film or acting-school or something. It's a high-school-project! And believe me: This is already the only positive aspect that can be said about this film. A bunch of 18-year-old friends having a good time with their VHS-Camcorder filming a little "movie" at school. But this is the point, where this thing should have ended! But after-wards the families and friends of this kids told them, that they had made a great movie... So the kids lost every touch with reality and tried to sell their little school-project to real DVD-Companies, which actually worked!!! I can' t even imagine what the company that distributed this piece of crap had in mind?!?! Perhaps it was the idea of making some money with a film that actually didn't cost anything! Which leads us to fact two: This kiddie-school-project gains money! But it's not even worth the few cents that the production of a DVD or VHS costs!!! And by the way: It's hilarious to make a commercially sold DVD out of a VHS-Camcorder-filmed Homevideo... Fact Three: Don't believe the last two reviews, which rated this film with 9 or 10 stars. These accounts are fake!!! As you can see in their review-history they only posted this one review and i am sure, that these are either fake accounts of some of the "film"-makers or of the production company, which have only one goal: To mislead potential viewers or worse: People who would even buy this crap! Fourth: Don't get me wrong - I'm a big fan of B,C or even D-Category Horror-Films. But this "film" is so bad, that there are not enough letters in the alphabet to name a category!!! Every second that you spend with watching this "movie" is wasted time. It's surely the worst "movie" of all time, because it must be compared with commercial movies, as it is professionally sold and distributed (even if it is written, filmed, acted and produced even lower than amateur-level!).
Last: DON'T WATCH!!! And even more important: DON'T BUY!!!!!

First of all: This movie is sick, really sick! It is disgusting. To watch it from the disturbing beginning to the relieving ending was painful and i think the writer/director needs some serious counseling! BUT: It's also a stunning piece of art.
The fundamental questions are: What does the writer/director want to express with this movie? What are his intentions? And: Does anyone need a movie that shows us every detail of ruthless slaughter, torture, skinning, beating and killing?
The Answer is: I AM STILL NOT SURE!!! But this is perhaps the reason, why this movie is a piece of art, not often watched in todays cinema. This movie is thought-provoking. It doesn't send you home with a few nice laughs, a see-through story and it isn't entertainment.
This movie only cares for the victims. This is why i think that the violence depicted is necessary. It doesn't make you numb. It even sharpens your sensitivity and you suffer with the victims while watching it.
Here in Germany, last week a man was beaten to death in the subway by two teenagers. He came to help some kids, that were molested by the two teenagers. I think a movie like MARTYRS could show those sickos what they do to their victims. This is why I think, that e.g. KILL BILL could be more "dangerous" than MARTYRS. Tarantino's movies (which i also adore) always follow the "bad guys" and show them as heroes, while the victims die off-screen. They show that violence is cool and funny. MARTYRS shows that violence is disgusting and sick!

Before I saw this movie I was anxiously waiting for its release. Afterwards I was offended, irritated and angry about, what the director (He Who Must Not Be Named) did to my favorite fictional (comics and literature alike) character.
He took this man, haunted by the shooting of his parents, fighting a war against crime, becoming more and more some kind of a borderline/split-personality, trying not to go nuts over his crusade-like task.....and put him into a screwball-Technicolor-musical-comedy-freak-show!!! Nearly everything about this movie was disgusting (for me as a fan of the comic-books). I wouldn't have been surprised if the actors had started singing and if there would have been the old "Crash", "Boom", "Bang" - overlays from the TV-series.
The villains - Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, and last and also least BANE... I'm really at a loss for words how bad these performances were (written?!?). I expected George Clooney to be the greatest Batman of all times (because of his acting in FROM DUSK TILL DAWN) but was also disappointed. This movie is totally crap - from the start to the beginning. Only for kids - not for adults!
