Yash B "Funny Games" is a strange movie but it is made with skill and kept me on the edge of my seat. I didn't know what direction it was heading at any time, and it left me confused at a few points too with some of the creative choices and fourth wall breaks. I think the movie is a disturbing watch, but it managed to make me uneasy without being too showy. I was impressed by how the movie is often really quiet and only implies horrifying actions offscreen. The movie got under my skin often and kept me uncomfortable with a bizarre mix of thrills and even dark humor. Overall, this is a fascinating movie that is intense and thought-provoking and is a truly unique experience. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/23/25 Full Review Jacob B A difficult watch. I can’t say that I enjoyed it, but it definitely got under my skin and lingered in my mind for a long time. As a fan of the director (especially his film “The White Ribbon”) I would definitely recommend it, but for the faint of heart or the impatient, I would say to look elsewhere. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/05/25 Full Review Petros T Boasting a committed cast and evocative photography, "Funny Games" has a way of being terrifying even before the actual terror begins and of being violent without actually depicting it. Despite certain not so believable moments (e.g. Anna not making an attempt to get help when she's outside towards the start), a less tight last act and unexploited fourth wall breaking, it's an overall really engaging, unsettling thriller, which may undermine Haneke's goal of commenting on violence in the media. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/25 Full Review Jon Q A movie designed to upset the audience. But I respect it for its originality. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/25/24 Full Review ‎ ‎ Funny Games is quite literally a parody of itself, and how the film industry portrays violence, torture, sadism and pornography in an acceptable, and even enjoyable way. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/23/24 Full Review Leaburn O A very decent horror film that plays out in a scary way. I saw this version after watching the Hollywood remake. What I can’t get my head around is how the remake gets terrible reviews but this version is acclaimed. They are literally identical except the language. It makes me wonder why they did a remake but either way, you can’t rate the films any differently because they are absolutely identical. Watched on DVD.
