Urge

I'm not sure why I even gave it the score of 2. Perhaps because I've seen worse. So, this is not the worst, but goes in the categories: "waste of time", "should have never been made", "why and which audience was it made for" and alike. The story could have been intriguing and interesting, but the director got very lost in telling it. It's your typical: friends getting together desperate to have the best time of their lives and guess what? Something goes wrong. Just like the summary says, but fails to evoke the plot holes, unfinished scenes, no explanations, no consistency. Oh, it's a mess. You expect orgy, but nothing is shown. And in my opinion, Ashley Greene stands out as doing the worst job in acting. Actually, when it starts, it looks like the beginning of a porn movie. Acting and script are that bad. I really wanted to see what will happen, but as it became more and more predictable, I just wanted it to end. And boy, what an end??!! There's nothing to enjoy: acting, script, dialogues, story, direction,... I guess you have to see it to believe it.

I was honestly enjoying this movie. It was stupid, but in a fun way. It wasn't anything to serious, just movie about 20-somehing year old getting high on what was basically Ecstasy.

The only problem I had during the movie was that the acting was TERRIBLE. It was weird because there were actors in it that I've enjoyed in other things, so I know they have the ability to act well. My guess is that no one was really taking the movie seriously , which is probably was made the movie as fun as it was. I imagine the set was just a bunch of actors screwing around,

But then Mr. Ending comes along and ruins the entire movie. It just STOPS. Anyone who says they like the ending is lying or just really really stupid. There's nothing to like. I don't understand why movies insist on using endings like that.

Do people actually LIKE those endings? I've never watched a movie and thought to myself "I really hope this abruptly stops and there's no closure."

It's a very odd film, it has an interesting premise, some great visuals, but ultimately just doesn't really hit the mark. I love the idea behind the film, it's a drug that can only be used once, any further uses will lead to destruction, and of course the curiosity of human nature meant they were always going to push it further. I lost it a bit towards the end, as it went off on a tangent, and I failed to understand Pierce Brosnan's character and purpose, although I did enjoy his performance.

I did stick with it, as it had some interesting scenes, but it's not a film I'd want to watch for a second time.

Not terrible, but definitely not good.

The movie revolves around a group of friends taking a drug that evaporates all inhibitions. So far so good.

This interesting premise and some artsy scenes are pretty much all there is to this flick. The whole rest, nearly all of its runtime is just wasted time - sadly to say at least.

The rather well known actors seem like caricatures - there is overacting and underacting - never consistent, never convincing. The only one that seems to enjoy his role is Pierce Brosnan, actually I would consider his performance one of the highlights in this movie.

The personalities of the characters are plainly sketched and clichés of group dynamics are just thrown in your face. Interesting deeper relationships or conflicts are strangely lacking.

Direction is uninspired - the proclaimed outrageousness that the premise promises is not found in the movie - instead you get minutes of quite uninteresting party scenes that do not even convey the party vibe and even lack the uneasiness it should deliver as it foreshadows the very foreseeable events.

Even if you want to watch this expecting to see some raunchy scenes like a good B-movie might offer you - you will be disappointed. Sadly this movie is actually a time waster. Granted with an interesting premise and some nice Pierce Bronsnan scenes and even a couple of art-house scenes - but very underwhelming as such.

I am a huge horror enthusiast and was excited about this release when I heard about it. Urge (2016) is about an obnoxious capitalist that goes to some weird island with his spoiled friends and unlikely girlfriend/secretary to drink expensive champagne and fool around. Instead they find a sinister night club where they are given a new drug that takes away their inhibitions. This premise sounds interesting because the drug, contrary to alcohol, doesn't turn people into drooling idiots at the same time...

Alas, this is an amateurish project that looks, sounds and feels like something out of a lower grade film school. This project would not have passed the final exam. I feel sorry for the director and people involved – especially Pierce Brosnan who is obviously desperate for work now. It is a dreadfully made movie that just oozes of cheapness and bad writing and acting. None of the characters seem real or even possible to accept as characters. It is all so unrealistic and trivial at the same time. The title role should say it all: Danny Masterson! And consider the fact that the club was supposed to seem cool, when it just seemed like a sleazy fetish club. The whole thing is so misdirected and lame that I couldn't even finish it. And I have finished some awful movies in my time, believe me. I have even seen all three Human Centipede movies from back to back, for example. So what does that say about this one? I am sad to say this: I give it one stars out of ten possible.
