The Taking

I never had the need to make and account and submit a review until today. I am amazed on what a train wreck I just witnessed. These two have destroyed... no... TAKEN not only my day but countless others. You will not be forgiven.

This was such an absolute failure.

I forced myself to watch it all the way through and now I have paid the the ultimate price.. and that price was to be part of the few that watched it all the way through.

Chinese Cringe - look it up...

AVOID THIS. I REALLY MEAN IT.

I only managed about 10 mins then had to switch it off, its all flashing imagery, strange symbolism and weird sound effects. IMHO 77 minutes is far too long to endure it all, perhaps it would of been more bearable if it was a short Film. This won't go down well, with your average Horror audience and unless your a film student, critic or well into art house, this probably will annoy the hell out of you with all the sound effects and flashing imagery, and will go straight over the head of most Horror fans. So if you are into horror don't look at its rating and think that you might enjoy this, do yourself a favour, save your money and go and rent something that you will actually enjoy. I give it 1 out of 10 and that's only because i cant give it a zero. When i wrote this its rating was a lot higher, i think about 6.5.

Okay...so I gave this about 10 minutes and thought "What the hell is going on?".

I understand that the idea was trying to make an "art-house" horror flick. but the only thing that was made was - me being nauseous with all the image flicking in bad editing! If I was epileptic I would of had half a dozen seizures within the first 20 minutes! (That's right, I endured for a while longer after reading the "Critics reviews")

The sound track was pathetic. I flicked the movie after 30 minutes of enduring what I can only refer to as crap!

Please do not waste your time watching this rubbish. The writers themselves should be tied to trees in the forest and left there...

The two first troll reviews made my day seriously. This movie is not even worth downloading or watching stream, just burn all the original copies of it and throw the ashes in a pit in the middle of a desert.

Stop making movies like this, thank you, just by watching the trailer i knew this movie would be a joke filmed with a potato and carrots actors.

Wasted 9 minutes of my life on this majestic blaspheme to the art of cinematography.

Reported.

Seriously, i can't even breath anymore, this is too funny, reading the two first comments bellow make this while thing a pure joke, i really hope for them these are troll comments and not member of the production of this Potato movie trying to make it look good even if they won't food anyone. Certainly not IMDb community. :')

Garlic Bread -laugh-

You know what's funny? I watched exactly 10 mins and 42 seconds of this movie before I paused it and searched it on IMDb. In this comment section I found that 11 mins was about average for quitting.

Don't get me wrong, I am a fan of movies that do horror differently, and I am very open to artistic development of motion picture. But seriously, this tries way to hard to copy something good and still fails the test. I've been more interested in the beginning of children's movies than this movie, and I can say with full confidence that I have never sat down intending to watch a certain movie and quit like this. In fact, if I start watching a movie, it really bothers me if I don't watch it from the beginning and don't finish it, regardless its really good or really bad. Even to the point of not even going to the theatre if I am more than 5 mins past the start of the movie; I consider myself a cinemaphile. But this is not cinema, it's a crummy redbox rental that just sits on your table for 3 days and that you give the company money to take back.
