Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Claudio Carvalho While traveling during the night, the Mask Mass Production van driven by Lae hits a bus and the driver and passengers awake in hell. Art, Ja, Chod, Oon, Kim, Uncle Tao and Lae are surrounded by demons that force to follow them through an inhospitable land to meet Satan. They learn that they will be judged and punished in accordance with their sins. However Art sneaks and finds a place were he sees that all of them are in coma in a hospital; therefore they might have a chance to escape from hell. But the sinners will have no chance to return before they are tortured for their sins. Will they have chance to live their lives? "Narok" is an underrated Thai film with an interesting visual concept of hell. I have glanced at other reviews and I found funny to read that the film is "moralist". If Uncle Tao and the teenagers are in hell, of course is because of their sins. The characters are intentionally not well developed since the screenplay discloses their sins when they die and have to stay in hell to pay for what they did in their lives. My vote is eight.Title (Brazil): "Inferno" ("Hell")

BA_Harrison A group of friends are critically injured after their van is involved in a head-on collision with a lorry. While doctors attempt to save their lives, the souls of these unfortunate crash victims are prematurely sent to hell where they suffer torment and torture according to how sinful they were during their lives.Two of the group are judged to be sin-free, and are allowed to skip the nasty stuff and proceed straight to reincarnation. But being the good souls that they are, they pass up on the chance of rebirth and instead set off to rescue their pals.Not a bad concept, but with a dreary script in which characters endlessly stumble from one part of Hell to another (whilst being chased by demons that look like reject Orcs from Middle Earth), this film quickly becomes repetitive and rather boring, despite some interesting visuals and a fair smattering of quite nasty gore. What could have been a wild ride of horror (especially if there had been a bigger budget, to avoid settling for sub-par CGI effects), ends up as a rather weak adventure film which is dragged down further by its clumsy morality.Worth seeing for its occasionally impressive visions of 'the hot place' and often gratuitously nasty scenes of torture, Hell is passable entertainment that tries hard to impress, but one can't help wonder what a more accomplished group of film-makers would have made of the whole 'escape from Hell' idea.

knifeintheeye I enjoyed the wild ride that is Hell. I'm not saying this is a great movie, it's not, but it was an interesting 90 minute Thai excursion into Hell.I don't know a lot of the Thai culture so I'm sure some of the subtleties were missed on me, but my Christian background more then made up for the holes that I saw.The cgi effects were pretty bad, but not every movie is a 100 million dollar Hollywood blockbuster, so that's OK. The over all look of the movie, obtained by filtering the lens and funky colors in the studio, was effective. Some of the scenes in Hell were quite graphic, so I was impressed by them.One real complaint that I have, is that I wish the Sanskrit speeches were translated with the rest of the dialog.

Fredrik Suuri I liked this movie. The plot is pretty stupid but the atmosphere and "beautiful" landscapes from hell make it worth watching. Oh... and the torture scenes too hehehe. The hell looks great and the demons and other monsters look convincing enough. Naturally the devil and the demons with horns and cloven hoofs from western tradition are replaced with monsters from thai folklore (i think). The devil looks like a bloated samurai, and the demons like thai-uruk-hai. But it doesn't matter because they look pretty cool. Fans of Asian fantasy/horror movies will like this movie, but if you're not into Asian movies you'll probably would enjoy Lord of the Rings (or Willow) more. Narok is not a masterpiece, but it's a movie worth watching. It's a great movie to watch when you're having a hangover as we say in Finland.
