All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Only Gods Forgive (2013)

Starring: Ryan Gosling, Kristin Scott Thomas, Vithaya Pansringarm
Director: Nicolas Winding Refn


Premise:
A British drug dealer is killed by Thai police detective causing his overbearing mother to arrive in Bangkok and guilt her other drug dealing son to avenge his brother's death so the family's name remains untainted.

My Take:
The movie is extremely slow paced. It is also beautifully filmed and contains the directors trademark bursts of violence and realistic gore (which is why the movie is being reviewed). There are some brutality in the movie which made me squirm. Defintely a film that will divide the audience.

Rating: So Good
