"This movie has been on my watchlist for quite some time now, and I finally found the time to watch it. Alone, of course. I didn't want to subject any of my family or friends to what could possibly be a scarring viewing experience.
I had built it up in my head that this was going to be potentially the most disturbing movie that I've ever seen... But it wasn't. All the reviews that I've previously read assured me that this was an ultra-violent, brutal film. Don't get me wrong, it was truly violent and disturbing, just not to the extreme that I had built up in my head. (Damn, what does that say about me?) I put it on the same level as Saw or Hostel but grittier, with a true life feel to it and with way better make-up effects. The Human Centipede 2 and The Sadness are way more disturbing in my opinion. Martyrs is most definitely not for the squeamish, but if you're a horror fan, give it a try. 8.5/10"
"I think for the most part this movie just isn’t my thing, to me it’s to brutal for brutal sake. I’m sure there’s a bigger meaning to this film but at the end of the day I’m not sure if I care? It seems depressing anyway. I can understand the sick curiosity and even like/love of this movie but I’ll have to pass. Watching it once is good for me. 👍🏻"
