Deed Poll (2004)

The Worst Film Ever

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

the sexy guy from Colgado de la luna and La Silla, andre schneider, wrote, produced and starred in this dark fairytale of a drug habit that becomes an obsession. the title rang my bell. wasn't that an infamous internet hoax a couple of years ago? schneider was falsely blamed for it, and his career was almost over. now he got it made, ij. biermann directed it, and this year, he showed it audiences in Madrid. the audience liked it, but I am unsure to this day. the plot was intriguing, but the way it was told was too much for me: too much sex, too many drugs, too gory, too much blood. still, there were some good ideas in it and the dialogue was fine. meanwhile, schneider did good in some smaller parts in Spanish low budget movies, so he doesn't need to bother how this cheap little cult trash porn is received. barbara kowa deserves a special mention, her powerful appearance lifts the movie's value up, up, up.

Deed Poll is a cool movie, though I wouldn't recommend it for everyone. It's a tough cookie. I watched it by accident at a friend's house and thought it was nicely made - it's astounding to see what you can do with no budget.The story is interesting and could have made a full-length picture. One wonders why they made it a short one.The sex scenes are very aesthetic and staged in an artistic appealing way. The direction could have been better, all in all, the movie seems a bit cold and lacks high emotions. The actors do well and after all, this is Kowa's and Schneider's film.Many people might expect to see Orlando Bloom. He isn't in it, a guy named Wittenauer plays Sean Poll, and he does it decently. 8/10

Deed Poll: a game, a drug, an orgasm, an art.To play poker already will never be like before. Have you played poker at some time? Surely yes. The tact of the playing cards in your hands encourages you to continue playing ... to play more and more. It is a natural instinct, a risk, an art. When you see the movie, to play poker will turn into a new game not known for you. "Deed Poll" will not make you indifferent. As the tact of the playing cards the movie is soft, exquisite, luminous. But simultaneously it is a risk, a danger, a bomb that will wake your more basic instincts up.In 1943 Hoffman discovers the LSD. The ecstasy is an hallucinogenic and some of the effects are that the vision sharpens, the colours meet more alive and vivacious, the persons and the objects acquire a fascinating character, the sensibility for the small details increases, the painful sensibility diminishes, the capacity of suggestion increases, heart runs. The same effects are the film's effects. At some time have you taken LSD? I recommend to you not to do it. But if you want to have an amazing trip you must see "Deed Poll". André Schneider will lead you for this trip of 45 minutes. "Deed Poll" is like an hallucinogenic. With him the colours will be different, you will not feel the pain and will have very much pleasure, the small thing will be enormous, everything will be fascinating, he will be fascinating and you also.Sex does the persons and the persons do sex. "Deed Poll" takes us to a personal orgy of feelings and passion. Feelings that immerse the prominent figures in a spiral of wild sex; spiral that each one uses to escape of a world and to enter other one. An orgy in which you can be one of them. You can meet reflected in one of four prominent figures and to feel as them, to be one of them. The active, the submissive, the intelligent, the madman, the risky, the masochist, the sadistic, the drug addict, the amicable, the incestuous, the shy, the slender… you. Have you had sex? I recommend to you that yes. But if you want to have an orgasm seeing a movie, undoubtedly your movie is "Deed Poll"."Deed Poll" is an art. It is a special art, an original art ... a new art. The colours of the movie are not usual and the camera angles are very good. The style of filming is genuine and very interesting and for it, from here, I congratulate the director. The actors are very credible actors, give life to prominent figures marvellously created in the script. Dynamical script and impacting, a personal and only script. Undoubtedly you will not repent on having seen it.

I like dark movies. I like porn. I thought "Deed Poll" was a good combination. It was. A hustler's getting killed for sexual stimulation.Pro: André Schneider's fine performance gave me the chills and Rainer-Maria Wittenauer was pure eye-candy. The fact that we get to see an erection a great bonus. The cameraman did a good job. The whole thing is well-written.Contra: Barbara Kowa's overacting annoyed me. She's wearing a terrible wig and is hysterical throughout the movie. The whole Ivy character is horrible! The sound quality is poor, poor, poor! Why couldn't they afford a better sound system?All in all: a good movie, made under very bad circumstances, with a great plot, a good ending, and a bad leading lady.
