Description

Victoria, a young woman from Madrid, meets four local Berliners outside a nightclub. Sonne and his friends promise to show her a good time and the real side of the city. But these lads have gotten themselves into hot water: they owe someone a dangerous favor that requires repaying that evening. As Victoria’s flirtation with Sonne deepens into something more, he convinces her to come along for the ride. And later, when things become more ominous and possibly lethally dangerous for Sonne, she insists on coming along. As the night takes on an ever more menacing character, what started out as a good time, quickly spirals out of control. As dawn approaches, Victoria and Sonne address the inevitable: it’s all or nothing and they abandon themselves to a heart-stopping race into the depths of hell.

    I can’t decide if this movie was more annoying or boring. Though the acting was excellent and the filmmaking was impressive the actor’s portrayed characters that were completely unlikable and the whole story progressed extremely slowly. Skip it!
  • One of the best films I've ever seen.

    It hurts my head to think about how this was pulled off... a single-shot for 139 minutes. And the scoring was perfect.

    Don't listen to these 1 and 2 star people - Victoria is not slow paced and does not need editing.

    This movie was worse to watch than an Ingemar Bergman movie.

    Not typical of this genre of movie. Full of suspense that builds slowly. Even though I kept telling myself it was just fiction, I still really cared about what was going to happen to the characters. That is the real test of a great movie. Just turn on the captions if you want to understand all the words; but that is true of a lot of my favorite movies, so I am used to it.

    Incredibly slow, boring, and implausible movie. The marketing borders on fraud. There are 10 suspenseful minutes in this movie. Half the time you find yourself bored stiff, waiting for something to happen, the other half, asking yourself , "what the ----??". It felt like it was put together by a bunch of guys in high school. I love a good raw independent movie, but this was so sloppy, so implausible, and just plain boring that it will make me think twice about ever renting what might be a diamond in the rough movie with a good trailer. I felt robbed having rented and spent 2-1/2 hours watching this amateurish junk.
  • Wishes It Were “Run Lola Run.” It’s not.

    Boring and asks us to believe that the title character would be so gullible or as easily manipulated? Come on. Wishes it were “Run Lola Run” but definitely isn’t. And all this B.S. about it all being shot in one take is a complete lie. There are 100 ways to hide an edit in a whip pan or as a character walks through a door-way. This is the biggest myth going about this film. Don’t believe the hype.
  • They lied… Birdman it is not…

    It was terrible. Any decent editor could’ve shaved an hour off… But, they wanted to be unique with their “one shot” take. So, I instead will shift blame to the write and director… This movie was terrible. Don’t waste your time. Disclaimer, I knew what I was walking into. I like unique movies. I sincerely appreciate foreign cinema. This thoroughly disappointed.
  • Über cool!
