Got very nice message, Examine, touching.

First off, 10/10 reviews? Are you friggin on acid + molly + lithium and god knows what else? "Seven" is a clear cut 10, I could waste my time and yours naming so many others. What sad little people have failed to watch REAL 10/10 movies that they toss that rating around like a baseball in the backyard with your little kid, lying to him, and yourself probably, that he's gonna play In the MLB someday lmao. Look, movie was decent, as mentioned by REAL reviewers (not friends of the writers and directors and s***), and is watchable, once, but these 8, 9, and FOR SURE 10 givers need mental testing (again, unless they're working for the filmmakers. Geezus, you'd expect this to win an Oscar with some of this BS. Anyhow, it's trippy, and a bit different, so if you're up late and can't find anything else, and have a jailbroken Firestick, give it a whirl. DAMN CERTAIN don't pay for it.

Sometimes you see a movie so bad that you wonder who actually thought it would be a good idea to make.

Ordinarily, I just ignore those. But sometimes you happen to look one of those movies on IMDB, and see that it has more fake positive reviews than any other movie you've ever seen. And then it inspires me to want to leave an honest review. That's this one.

Wooden acting, the cheapest possible production values, a "plot" (barely) that seems like it was written by a 12-year-old, this film is missing virtually everything that might make a film worth watching.

If only they'd spent money on actors, writing, and production instead of on fake IMDB reviews, this movie might have been only bad and not totally, offensively bad. And I wouldn't have felt a civic duty to point out just how fake so many of these reviews are.

With "God of Pain", from director JD Allen, being a horror movie that I had neither heard about, nor obviously ever watched, of course I opted to check it out. Given my love of all things horror, then I needed no persuasion to sit down and watch the movie.

Writers JD Allen and Shyina Crayton put together a rather bland and mundane script and storyline. I struggled to find anything interesting in the narrative, and my interest in the movie was waning with each passing minute. The contents of the storyline just didn't come off as being particularly scary, nor actually particularly entertaining. And that made for a boring movie.

I was actually not familiar with a single actor or actress that performed in "God of Pain". And believe it or not, but that was actually something that served in favor of the movie, as I do enjoy watching unfamiliar and new talents on the screen. The acting performances in the movie were fair.

The effects in the movie were okay, but nothing outstanding to be seen. However, the prominent mask worn by Algea sort of failed to impress me, as I have seen it on Temu.

"God of Pain" is not a movie that I would recommend to horror fans, as it just simply isn't really worth spending 99 minutes on. Nor is it a movie that will ever grace my screen a second time.

My rating of director JD Allen's 2023 movie "God of Pain" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.

With a phenomenal concept and incredible assembly of a passionate cast and crew, God of Pain does a lot with a small budget. I loved the anthology of characters and each portrayal all being tied together in the framework of the Algea character.

While the occasional budget constraint might show through in a small part of a scene, there's no doubt that it only highlights the creativity on full display by the talented director, producers, and actors.

I'm excited to see more from Inglewood Films, and I have every confidence that this same team with a proper budget will deliver a unique, new horror villain audiences have been wanting for decades.
