Watch Basement For Free

Save your money for something good and enjoyable

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Admirable film.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

I read the reviews of this film prior to watching it and needless to say I wasn't expecting much. The reviews are pretty much spot on, this is a strange film which is badly filmed and badly acted. Very little happens the plot doesn't make much sense and the editing is appalling. Danny Dyer gets a lot of bad press but I happen to quite like him unfortunately this is by far the worst performance i've seen him put in. It's almost as if he realised this was rubbish and couldn't be bothered. Jimmi Mistry is terrible, the girls are more convincing but no more than adequate. For all it's many flaws however at least the film kept me watching and therefore I can't say it's anywhere near the worst film i've ever seen. There are one or two decent moments and I quite liked the ending. I probably wouldn't watch it again but on the basis I got to the end without being too bored i'll give it a probably generous 6.

This film, it has to be said, is not one of the best movies I've ever seen. Having said that, there are a hell of a lot out there that are worse in every respect. Danny Dyer's acting skills are on par with his usual ability and are pretty well matched by the acting prowess of the rest of the cast. All suffer with the usual, overused problem of being characters who don't deserve us caring about them. There is one character who is so thoroughly obnoxious that I at least thought his death came way too late. The setting is quite effective in creating a sense of claustrophobia, being one narrow tunnel after another. The mystery of the killings and who is stalking the group is somewhat weak to say the least, as is the manner in which they arrive in the titular Basement. As long as you don't go into watching this film expecting to see something amazing, you wont be disappointed. It will leave you with questions that are not answered but to be honest you wont lose any sleep over it.

I am a big fan of horror films, and an even bigger one of English horror but this movie puts the British film industry to shame. How any money at all could be invested in such a load of nonsensical rubbish is beyond me. The plot, such as it is, makes absolutely no sense, the acting is atrocious and even though the film only lasts 74 minutes, it seems like four times that due to the boredom. All that really happens is a bunch of totally uninteresting characters walk up and down the same dingy corridors over and over again talking crap and then it ends, leaving you wondering why you wasted your time watching this bilge rather than doing almost anything else you could possibly think of. I have just taken great pleasure in cutting up the DVD and disposing of it just in case someone makes the mistake of ever putting in their DVD player. I would rather gnaw my own legs off than watch this again. Do not watch if you know what's good for you!

Horrific. I usually enjoy films that are so bad they are funny - or entertaining on some level, but this was truly awful to the point that I felt angry with myself for watching it to the end. I won't even go into an overview of the plot, there isn't one.It makes no sense from start to finish with the worst script ever to be delivered. Harry Enfield and his mockney characters have a lot to answer for - although I'm certain he would have performed 100 times better than these 'actors'. If you are turned on by spending just over an hour watching boring people in a boring location saying pointless and idiotic things to each other for no reason whatsoever then I suggest that you save yourself a fiver and watch Big Brother. This is, without a doubt the worst film I have ever seen. And what the hell is DCI Burnside out of the bill Talking about at the start? Do yourself a favour and spend the fiver on a slightly better takeaway than you had planned.
