Not as good as the 1930 version, as this movie veers way off from the classic book.

Save for a 'behind the fridge door shot' this movie ticked all the horror movie tropes. The only positive, it was well shot.

Great performance from Alex McCowen as the Chief Inspector.

Ho hum what what can say, apart from Budapest looks lovely.

This film peaked early and then drifted off into 'slow cinema' and repetition. I haven't watched a film this slow since Tarkovsky.

She's not delightful - she's bl**dy annoying. If you like leads who are ditzy and infuriating this is your kind of movie. Could only stick twenty minutes.

Verhoeven channelling Brian de Palma.

All the lens flare in the world can't hide what is a paper thin plot.

An unholy mess of a film. Full of plot holes and going nowhere.

Whatever this film it trying to say it fails at.

Awful - a hackneyed script with cliched shock tactics. This director has suffered a catastrophic loss of form. It is now 12 years since he made a reasonable film, namely 'The Village'. Definitely not a comeback film. Apparently he shot it in secret - he should have kept it that way.

The score is about as exhausting as the movie. Corny and overwrought.

Not a film to engage empathy as many participants chose to put themselves in danger and coughed up a pretty penny in the process.

Somewhat ruined by an overly sentimental music score. Great action scenes though.

A great film. I prefer it to 'This is England'.

I have to agree with others here - it is a totally vile film. Falls into the common cliche of victims making dumb decisions. Jack O'Connell does excel at playing a total shit though.

A truly unpleasant viewing experience. Michael Sheen gives a great performance though.

Such a lame plot considering the decades of material available. Still waiting for a great Dredd film.

An awful film. The plot is as directionless as the car.

Empty and boring. Has a paper thin script.
