“While the entire enterprise is inarguably a stunt, Victoria manages to overwhelm in ways that few films do. ”~Nigel M. Smith, The Guardian
Aroview: Dazzling, propulsive thriller shot entirely in one continuous 134 minute take through multiple locations in the city of Berlin has a Spanish woman's encounter with a local man turn deadly as she finds herself caught up in a daring heist.
The plot gets wilder and woollier as our free-spirited eponymous "heroine" throws all caution and common sense to the wind, but its more than compensated as an ambitious cinematic stunt that is as memorable as it is unprecedented.
Average rating (Good Try). Showing 1-3 of 4 member reviews.
1 star (Turkey) Underwhelming naive "thriller" about young thugs & a lonely girl over one night in Berlin. No redeeming features. If a "stunt", not an amusing one. ~Sandy
2 stars (Good Try) The screenplay takes a long time to get going and a long time to wind up - in between there is some action with a little suspense. Overall however the screenplay seems to be long for the sake of being long and without any other purpose. ~Tubbs
3 stars (Good Enough) ~Regando
