Watch Revengers Tragedy For Free

From my favorite movies..

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

The basic story is simple; On the day one man is married his new wife is murdered by a gangster because she wouldn't give into his "lust". The husband has to leave the town or be murdered. Ten years later, the husband returns to extract vengeance.This film is based on Cyril Tourneur's play. The Revenger's Tragedy. The film makers brought the time period (1600)to the present(2002). The dialogue remains in the 17th century and all or most of the actors were from the North of England. That's not altogether a bad thing. The viewer really doesn't need the dialogue to understand the story because of the strong acting abilities of the actors involved. The one performance that made my skin crawl was Derek Jacobi as the Duke. Three actors stood out as carrying the film on their shoulders; Jacobi Christopher Eccleston, and Eddie Izzard, but it was Jacobi that stood out the most.I do recommend this movie. You might have to watch it a couple of times, but when you are finished, I think you will agree with me that it is a very good movie.

I agree with all the positive comments that have been made.It's greatly entertaining, as nearly all revenge films are. (in my opinion anyway...) It's got asides to the audience. (I do like that) It looks gorgeous, never lags, has great casting/acting. (Although I'm not sure if Alex Cox's cameo fits in here this time.....)And even the plot's good, I reckon.So...that's my erudite opinion, (albeit a bit spartan!) Give it a chance, it's great.....Shame there's no commentary on the DVD tho...To sum up - great film!

i really wanted this to be good as i am from Liverpool where it is set but it truly awful. the acting from everyone involved is cringeworthy the script is terrible absolutly terrible. terrible

This is quite simply one of the WORST films I have ever seen.Alex Cox has made 1 good film(Sid and Nancy)and has been coasting since then on his non-reputation, but enough is enough.Taking Middletons already over the top play and infusing it with dreary 80-s post-punk visuals and dreadfull Derek Jarman style pretension leaves the viewer nauseous and patronised.Eccleston, usually dependable is AWFUL, and only Izzard acquits himself(amazingly).Avoid this trash at any cost0/5
