I've got Martyrs and watched it once years ago....and thought it was shite. Over time I have heard people saying how gruelling, violent and how it pushed the envelope way out.
I just don't get or see that at all. It was mediocre at best, boring and contrived at its worst. Inside is another one that people rave about and I thought was tosh as well, Switchblade Romance was far a better film than those two put together, even with that "twist" ending that was bollox!
Frankie has made me want to watch it again and perhaps with a different mind set this time, not expecting too much, I might have a different opinion of it. Cheers Frankie, good review!
