Godforsaken! Audience Reviews

MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Sandcooler This movie is loosely based on real events, and that's also pretty much the feel it has to it: real. This movie is not a vivid, lively crime drama, it's definitely no "Goodfellas" rip-off, it's one of the grayest and most depressing movies I've ever seen. The colors look, wait, what colors? The acting is excellent all around, I can't believe how convincing everyone's accent is. The plot is very basic and raw, even though the girlfriend issues do tend to get tiresome near the end. What I love most though is the ending narration, which consists of the most deadpan monologue ever. Those who can't be moved by this film have no pulse.
TheOtherFool Van God Los, a crime story loosely based on the 'gang of Venlo', has some interesting elements. First off, the acting is rather good, and Gernandt truly shines as 'bad guy'. When having to play a more social character who wishes to become father, the problems arise just there. Keep on type-casting him for the bad guy, he can do that just fine.Secondly, the movie keeps focussed on it's main story and doesn't wander off. This way it's high paced and it's what the movie needed.The other actors convince as well and the story is sad, compelling and tough to watch at the same time. Too bad though the movie isn't wrapped up too nicely, the end scene when Stan wants to die was silly at best.But overall, a decent flick. We've seen worse around these parts of the world. 6/10.
nassie Really nice movie!! I saw this movie yesterday and I really enjoyed it. The movie starts a bit slow but after the introduction of the characters it really becomes a good story. We see the story through the eyes of Stan Meijer who gets the wrong friends. They start with little crimes, but once they get hired by the Turkish mafia the crimes get bigger and bigger. Go see this movie!!
weste117 Its a good movie bout 2 mates that are by coincidence hitman for the Turkish maffia, Good performances by all actors. This movie makes a shocking impression, by the use of cassual violence and characters based on the real events in a city in The Netherlands called 'Venlo'. A lively movie with a touch of reality.
