God of Pain

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.

"Algea: God of Pain" plunges viewers into the depths of Greek mythology, unraveling the haunting narrative of Algea, the deity of suffering. Through stunning visuals and a captivating storyline, the film explores the intricate relationship between gods and mortals, delving into the profound themes of agony and redemption. While pacing may falter at times, the film's thematic depth and compelling performances keep audiences engaged. It's a thought-provoking cinematic journey that lingers in the mind, offering a glimpse into the complexities of human anguish.

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.

I watch all types of horror , and this popped up on my Amazon movies I would like. I unfortunately paid the 6.99 to watch it. 1st attempted I fell asleep 12 minutes in 2nd time same scenario 3rd and last time I watched it I turned it off 1/2 way through. Between the Jenky acting, the " hellraiser pinhead one liners they blatantly ripped off,and the spirit Halloween special effects. I couldn't take it. This reminded me of a SCY-FY channel late night movie but worse! Save your time and money and pass on this one. The main characters make up is basically two masks on top of each other with oversized "hulk toy" fists.
