Botched is bungled - irredeemably, at times even enjoyably, so.

In the end, though, there's only so much slack you can give a film that wears its cheapness and ineptitude like badges of honour.

Stupid, slipshod stuff.

Hugely derivative, but highly entertaining.

I probably would have stopped short of recommending Botched theatrically, but on DVD it's definitely worth a look.

A hit-and-miss comedy-horror. Mostly miss.

Aug 18, 2013Does this really get better after the first 40 minutes? Please tell me, because I'd really like to give this a chance, but I'll need some convincing.vieras e Super Reviewer

Oct 16, 2012[img]http://images.rottentomatoes.com/images/user/icons/icon13.gif[/img] There's a handful of laughs to be had with Botched but the obvious problem is that too many of them are hit and miss gags. There's plenty of well made gore but it's ultimate downfall is simply down to the fact that it's neither scary nor funny enough. I think it comes up to short in far to many places, it has a good story but as with most low budget horror's and horror comedies it never lives up to it's very intriguing premise. That's what made Shaun of The Dead and Attack The Block so great, they were both hilariously funny and nail bitingly scary at the same time. But there's an unfortunate sense of dullness with Botched that it tries to hard to be scary and think's it's a lot funnier than it is. It's very aware that it's been made fo a small amount of money but that can't be used as an excuse as to why the film isn't as good as it should be. The cast simply do the best with the material they're given but even they have a very awkward and off mark sense of comedic timing. It boasts no exciting set pieces or witty dialogue, and redeems itself only by some adequate acting and eye popping gore effects. It has bloodbath creativity i'll give it that much, but it's very self indulgent and think's it's a groundbreaking horror comedy, but it really isn't. It's just as unexciting and juvenille as it's title. Mediocre at best, even if like me your a fan of really cheap horror movies.Directors C Super Reviewer

Jan 28, 2010Good one to watch when you need a silly, bloody crime/horror/comedy. When would you need it? At night when you wanna watch something that won't make you sleep and something that won't make you think.Serdar C Super Reviewer

Jan 14, 2010LMAO!! Yeah it was.. not that it was bad but I thought this was suppose to be a crime thriller LMAO!! Turns to be a dark comedy bordering on horror movie. My long Love Stephen Dorff is in this (for those that do not know have been a fan of his since I was little.. (well him too being he?s only a few years older) I?m sure I?ve seen him in Different Strokes. (the earliest would be the new leave it to beaver but never watched that I don?t think) so anyway. The way the movie turned out I was surprised. Is not the best but although you have been ?warned? about the twist (sorry) some of the stuff well one part was just to silly & stupid I couldn?t help but laugh. And all this happens in Russia after a ?botched? diamond hesit. Or rather the after math of it. I do LOVE when Stephen Dorff plays the bad guy.. I can?t remember the last movie I saw him that he didn?t (oh wait for once for once he didn?t die/get killed in one) C+ To me a little better than a C but possibly not full on B material. What made me think this was the type of movie I thought it was no idea but IMDB says comedy thriller crime (maybe the crime part I remembered only cause of the title. ) but at least it made me laugh after a long annoying I wanted to kill someone at at work.. (ah Thank you Ivan the Terrible)Kym (c my community profile) R Super Reviewer
