Reiki (2009) User Reviews

The best B movie in years!!!!!

[melhartman · 8/10 · 9 January 2010]

I really enjoyed this movie. It's hard to imagine that the director made this movie with a very small budget. The martial arts were excellent and professional. Also the actors were of a high standard! I didn't expect it, but truly, after watching it: I had to recommend this movie to all my friends. It's a perfect mix of fantasy and comedy. More than once I burst out laughing. Also, as a women, I thought that there would be too many fight scenes. But that was okay, because the rest of the movie was very entertaining. Okay, there were some minor beginner flaws, but that is understandable and also easy to explain because of the budget. I wonder what the director would be able to do with a normal or big movie budget. For certain a move that I would love to see!

I loved it!

I saw this movie, expecting something really crappy but I loved it. Keep in mind that this is a low-budget film like an Evil Dead or an El Mariachi.

The director and writer Pedro Chaves is definitely the new Robert Rodriguez! And he proves it while shooting a action film for nothing! True talent directing!

Acting: I was amazed by the characters of Vann and Hansel! A strong cast that we don't often find in low budget movies. Some actors were really weak, like the twins, but they were just minor characters.

Storywise, I was taken aback. It's a B-movie don't take me wrong, but the story flips from action to comedy to horror to romance and has such an unexpected twist at the end that will blow your mind away! So, shortly: watch Reiki.

I'll give it 8 out of 10 for the surprising effect.
