Watch [REC] For Free

Excellent adaptation.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Had heard great reports about this film so was willing to be wowed but all I got was a migraine through the constant screaming from firemen, police, medics, tv crew, residents and zombies alike. In fact, the Spanish emergency services must have shuddered to see how unprofessionally they were portrayed in this film even allowing for artistic license. As for the tv crew, took an instant dislike to the pushy anchor keeping my fingers very firmly crossed she'd be the first casualty of whatever it was that was inside the building. Unhappily and rather predictably, though, she wasn't. I'm very rarely lucky in this area of film viewing. As for poor put-upon Pablo, I'll just have to wait and see if a Zombie Pabs emerged from the carnage but that very much depends upon whether I can summon up the will to watch REC2. Just now, I'm thinking not. And that was that. If your idea of a good horror is loads of blood, lots of shouting, poorly drawn characters and not much plot, you'll love this. Me? Not so much. The three stars are for the tv girl's gazongas which actually rated very much higher than a 3 but I didn't want people getting the idea I'd loved the film rather than just her knockers.

I can't say enough good things about this movie. Even when I had watched it in very low streaming quality when it was just getting released 10 years ago, with no subtitles, I somehow was able to sift through the inconveniences and engage myself in the film. I would easily tell any fan of the horror genre to prioritize in seeing this movie, because it is easily one of the scariest movies of all time. It was so inexplicably unfortunate that they decided to remake this movie frame-by- frame. While Quarantine wasn't by any means a bad movie, it was a reminder of a very poor decision done by the guys with the creative rights to the film. It should have been rereleased with subtitles. There are plenty of American people that can watch a subtitled movie, it's just these movie execs that prioritize profits that prevent audiences from watching so many great foreign language films.The movie is relentless in pace; starts the ball rolling within the first 10 minutes. And boy, that ending. If a nationwide release was made for this film, it would have sent people out of the theater trembling.. C'est la vie! Still, go out and watch this flick if you haven't (and don't really bother with any of the sequels, the part 2 kind of removes any mystery or nuance in the first)

In this movie a young reporter and a cameraman were investigating the fireman's life. they wanted to go with them to see how they work. they go for help in a dangerous apartment and that's when something terrifying happens. I think this movie was so scary and crazy. I think everyone to go for it. I suggest everyone should watch this movie.

Not all found footage films are created equal. Heck, that goes for traditional movies as well so that's not news. But, this film is a cut above the rest. If I were to classify found footage films I would put them in three groups. 1.) The "Paranormal Activity" style. 2.) The film crew style.3.) The amateur videographer styleThe "Paranormal Activity" style is strategic placement of cameras throughout the location to catch the various action. It makes sense and doesn't rely on a single cameraman to be present everywhere. The film crew (even if it's just one cameraman) works because their job is to video document, which means they'll be skilled at it and continue doing just that even when things get weird. They usually have higher end cameras and camera equipment for a better viewing experience. "REC" follows this format. And unlike some movies where it becomes irrational to continue filming, in this movie it was a logical conclusion to keep filming as they wanted to prove to the world what was happening. The amateur videographer style usually doesn't work that well. First, he's an amateur. And Second, many times he's with a camera filming everything even when it doesn't make sense for him to be doing that (which really grates my nerves).As for "REC", it's done really well. The acting was spectacular. There was a real natural feel to it as Angela (Manuela Velasco) and her cameraman Pablo (Pablo Rosso) were documenting the events of the night. Nothing seemed rehearsed; their interviews, their regular conversation, and even the reactions to the complete chaos that ensued. The shots were great and the movie was edited to near perfection. "REC" hits a home run for the found footage genre.
