Devin O This movie sucks so bad it’s hard to find words to describe it. I’ve never felt so frustrated and ready for a movie to end in my life. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/02/24 Full Review S R 1001 movies to see before you die (added later). This movie touched on so many issues: youth aimlessness, youth failures, EU crime, EU police, EU workforce, raves, EU prisons, organized crime. All in a shaky camera format made it a little odd, but more real, like we were along for the crazy ride. The whole time I was worried about the girl, but I guess she did alright. The police reaction at the end seemed a bit over the top and too fast, but then again i've never been part of it. Were the morals good? No. But I guess they don't need to be. RUS. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/28/24 Full Review John P Many people miss the possible point of the film , which could even be interpreted as a supernatural horror. It turns on when Victoria plays the Mephisto Waltz when Victoria reveals her real character and changes from a seemingly innocent in danger , to become the Faustian protagonist who will witness and in some way facilitate the doom of all the others while she walks away freely. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/19/23 Full Review Roos S It was an interesting watch, and the 2+ hours did not feel too long in my opinion. The acting and the story capture the vibe of an out-of-control party night well, but borders on plain illogical instances that I just couldn't get over, and therefore I really could not get into this film. In particular, the fact that she did not know them beforehand and just agreed and followed along. I feel the story could have addressed the motivation of the characters just a tad more, and that would have made the movie a lot better for me. I feel this was attempted with hints of their back story, but I would have enjoyed knowing more. From a technical perspective, the one-shot take was impressive, and I do believe it is appropriate for the story. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review dave s Despite its shortcomings, Sebastian Schipper's Victoria needs to be seen for its wild one-take shot spanning well over two hours. The plot is simplistic: after a night of partying in Berlin, a young woman meets four men on her way home and eventually agrees to partake in a robbery as the getaway driver. The characters are simplistic: they are drunken louts who continually make bad decisions, traits most viewers will have trouble relating to. Additionally, some of the dialogue early on is difficult to understand, probably due to the logistics of the lengthy take, an annoying but forgivable sin. But the single extended take is a joy to watch, an unimaginable feat considering the action sequences and the tight quarters often involved, and more than compensates for the film's inadequacies.
