2 stars (Good Try) Only God forgives - the audience does not. ~smithee

1 star (Turkey) Refn's cinematography and soundtrack work atmospheric wonders, again, but the story is just sophomoric sadism draped in would-be spiritual angst. Sick, hollow, and pretentious: there's no soul here to forgive. ~fairbrother

4 stars (Very Good) Gorgeously shot and set in a parallel hyper violent universe near Refn's crocodile brain. Not for the fans of Drive. Pusher Trilogy or Valhalla Rising are more similar works ~bikewrench
