The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
This was on my to-watch list for quite a while before I gave it a chance. Holy crap this movie is good. Not ten stars good, obviously, but man it throws some curve balls. All of the actors were competent and believable. The tension builds and builds. The ending was stereotypical but didn't detract from the film at all. Wonder how much time Patrick Stewart had to spend in makeup to play a skinhead lol.
I read lots of bad reviews about this film, before i saw it, so didn't have high hopes, but i really enjoyed it. I was wanting to know how they were going to escape, and enjoyed the action some of the gore was too much and i had to look away, basic premise ,punks fight skinheads in building. in order to escape them.lots of gore, fights ,shooting, just what you want,some punk songs. if your expecting the expendables budget you will be dissappointed, but if you like a horror/action film, you'll enjoy it
This review contains spoilers.Green Room is a thriller about a band that is trapped by neo-Nazis. The movie follows the band from when they are performing at the bar to their capture and subsequent escape attempts. The movie has brutal spurts of gore as the band is forced to defend themselves.Green Room is a brutal movie with lots of gore. The movie is a low budget flick set in the same location for much of the movie as the band try to stay one step ahead of their captors. This is perhaps the movie's strength, the location becomes a characters as the death count rises and the characters explore more of the bar. The gore in this movie can border on excessive. Characters are hacked to death by the brutal neo-Nazi gang, but even this is to show how crazy the antagonists are.Patrick Stewart plays the leader of the neo-Nazi gang as he tries to corner the band. He does a good job portraying his character as he embarks on progressively violent tactics to kill the band members.The story in this movie is difficult to follow. The movie likes to present a character switching sides as a twist but it is not good to make only one quip and the rest of the characters simply accept it. The main character played by Anton Yeltsin is great as he portrays the desperate struggle his band undergoes.Green Room is recommended. The movie is a tight and intense thriller.
A punk rock band is forced to fight for survival after witnessing a murder at a neo-Nazi skinhead bar. Green Room has an impressive and talented cast but the end result is a loud, bland and stupid thriller about dumb people getting killed by another dumb people. Also Patrick Stewart being this Group's leader wasn't believable from start to finish and his character was pointless and could have been written off plus the 3rd act is the generic things that all those horror/thriller movies have in common. Overall not that interesting or captivating as i heard. (0/10)
