The far-fetched plotting eventually goes so far over the top that pic flirts with inventing a new genre of film noir camp. Go to Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy 07/05/2023

thiago s @Thiagostone Aug 30 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Mark J Feb 18 A poor film, cliche ridden, and no one seems to know how to wear stockings and suspenders! The panties should always be worn over the top of the suspenders, rule one! See more Aaron K Jan 26 A waste of time and talent. My soul lies bleeding… See more Jelisije J Jan 23 So many unnecessary scenes and characters that drags on way too long.....only thing I can say positive about this film is that its an unpredictable memorable one and done experience that I will never forget or wish to go back to. See more Farah R @Farah 11/01/2024 Gary Oldman is a fantastic actor, but his character in Romeo is Bleeding is very unlikable, and the film, as a whole, is an overwhelming mess that's deeply unpleasant to watch. See more Steve D 02/19/2023 Oldman is as good as ever but the story is so unpleasant, so gross it is hard to watch. See more Read all reviews
