Sick brutal sadistic fun. I love this old school plot and when it’s done like this, I love it even more. The evil scumbags pay the price as expected but you really enjoy it because of the spectacular Matilda Lutz. She is scorching hot and easy to love playing this adrenaline pumped badass babe; she is unforgettable. I must also mention the cinematography is gorgeous and colorful. There’s nothing to analyze, so just strap yourself in and have a blast watching Matilda get all over it.

The one or other scene may be a little unrealistic, but it is still one of the best movies. Wonderful!

_Revenge_ is a classic 70s style rape & revenge flick like a renovated muscle car that doesn't run on story but on cool - and the tank is full.

The director (Coralie Fargeat, writing and directing her first feature-length film) throws herself on the scene like an unpinned hand grenade and blows the screen away. Reminiscent of Tarantino, she can elicit winces as well as laughs and make every body count.

The actors are solid and the female lead (Italian actress Matilda Anna Ingrid Lutz) is totally believable as the bad ass with a nice one. See this film before the backlash kicks in!

Gory, but brilliant

Jen (a superb Matilda Lutz) and her married lover Richard (Kevin Janssens) are enjoying a romantic weekend in his isolated house in the desert. However, shortly after they arrive, Richard's friends, Stan (Vincent Colombe), Dimitri (Guillaume Bouchède), and Roberto (Jean-Louis Tribes) show up unannounced, urging Richard to join them on a hunting trip. As tension mounts in the house, Stan rapes Jen, but when she says she is going to go to the police, and to alert Richard's wife of his affair, the men attack her and leave her for dead. However, unbeknownst to them, she survives the assault, and has set on revenge.

Very much in the vein of films such as Sam Peckingpah's Strawdogs (1971) and Meir Zarchi's I Spit On Your Grave (1978), Revenge is an insanely gory rape-revenge thriller. In her feature debut, writer/director Coralie Fargeat displays an astonishing visual panache as she reappropriates this exploitative sub-genre for the post :pound_symbol:MeToo era. From the expansive Ford-esque vistas of the desert to the claustrophobic and labyrinthine finale, her visual language is as dexterous and thematically justified as one would expect from a master stylist such as Michael Mann. The film is very much about the dangers and darker implications of the male gaze, and the way Fargeat's constantly moving camera lingers on actress Matilda Lutz's half-naked body is deeply unsettling, challenging the audience to look at her in the same way the male characters do, before turning this notion on its head in the second half of the film. If you can ignore the plot contrivances, and stomach the gore, you will find a socially relevant film that is as auspicious a debut as you're likely to see all year.

This movie is an excellent classic revenge flick! It has bullets, it has blood, it has a hot chick running around the desert in her underwear!

The acting was good, the cinematography and music were excellent. The only thing I have to nitpick is the seemingly interchangeable shotgun/high cal hunting rifle. But otherwise an awesome, sexy, ride with plenty of bullets and blood.

Run of the mill revenge flick that really could've been so much more. The first half does a wonderful job with exposition, establishing the dynamic between this young woman and her three tormentors. But then once we get into the actual "revenge" portion of the film, it all goes downhill. The cast is very small so needless to say, so is the body count. I much preferred the remakes of "I Spit On Your Grave" when it comes to the revenge department, though the Saw-like torture techniques might feel out of place in a film like this.
The direction and cinematography is brilliant. The look of the film is a lot more polished and artistic than what you usually see in these types of revenge flicks. There are a lot of closeups and jump cuts that really help build the tension and atmosphere. It's just a shame that the film couldn't hold that tension and atmosphere throughout the whole film.
It was entertaining enough. But it really could've been a lot more visceral with a bit more character development for our heroine, and it could've been something truly great.
