Yeah, exactly.  Without giving away too much I absolutely love the fairly unflinching execution of it all.  At points I think maybe they went a little too over the top, showing certain things that weren't necessarily required for the story to progress, but then again these things added to the overall feel of discomfort that I realise they were shooting for.  There was only really one moment near the end of the film (ring of horses) where I felt they backed off a little, but that doesn't mean I didn't inwardly cheer a little when they did.

[5/5]

ampersandwitch:
Amazing movie.  Amazing.  I cried, I laughed - totally brutal, but totally genius at the same time.  An emotional roller coaster?  I don't think I can explain how amazing this movie was without melting into a puddle of film critic cliches.
Just - go watch it if you haven't.

Joseph:
Saw it last Friday.  Absolutely fantastic, best film I've seen in a while.  Loved the ambiguity as well, so many little hints pointing in both directions.  I plan on dragging some more friends to see it sometime soon.

Cartilage Head:
 I am going to go see it tomorrow and I haven't been this excited about seeing a movie in a long time.

 I heard it was very, very violent. Is this true?

TheFuriousWombat:
no, i wouldn't say so. there are some moments that are very brutal but as a whole there isn't much extreme violence. there are a couple gruesome bits of torture and a fair amount of gunshot deaths but as a whole the violence is a little exaggerated on forums. the parts that are violent are very intense though.
