The scene with Vinnie and the Latina is unbelieveably deep and brutal, and in a more realistic way, it's worse than a Romero or Tarantino gore scene.

If that scene was "deep and brutal", you need to seriously see some more movies.

Personally, I don't find rape and serious violence towards women to be something I become desensistized to if I see it done in a more vicious or well-handled way. This as someone whose seen Irreversible, Last House, I Spit On Your Grave, Thriller, ET AL.


I thought it was an enjoyable enough movie, and damn far leagues better than either movie adaptations of The Running Man or Battle Royale were.

I liked the movie....never have understood why it gets so much crap.

Here are my thoughts:

HIT IT SANTINO

They tried to make me watch The Condemned,
I say NO, NO, NO,
It's a sad fact,
Stone Cold-ah can't act,
He should GO, GO, GO,
He likes to hang out in bars,
Me and Voicebox give his movie zero star-ha-hars,
They tried to make me watch The Condemned,
I SAY NO, NO, NO!

I was also very surprised by this movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was surprised it wasn't some campy action movie. It was a lot more serious in tone and violent than I expected.
