Audience Reviews for The Crimson Rivers

  • Feb 21, 2015
    Whilst being a gruesome psychological horror detective story it is actually rather enjoyable thanks to a script that's more suitable as light entertainment. Lots of silliness in a fun way and a plot that isn't too taxing to figure out with a back story about eugenics that will make it quite memorable, if nothing special or outstanding in anyway.

    3 and 3/4's. Pretty good. I'm not really on board with alot of French films, but this was rather enjoyabe. EXCEPT...they threw in some strange fight scene, with an even stranger video game sound effect voice over. MINUS half a point for that lame move....otherwise, pretty decent movie.
