Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Very well executed

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I'm not certain how Ulli Lommel's empty thriller Absolute Evil got into the Berlin film festival, but after the woeful Daniel the Magician from a few years ago, I'm surprised, very surprised. Toplined David Carradine plays a jovial sort of gangster which is a small role in this home-made thriller film. The story has a woman chasing after her father's killers about 15 years too late. A torture/waterboarding scene is the primal image in Absolute Evil -- it is the scene that Lommel cuts back to frequently, and becomes the symbol of how this movie grates on the nerves.Absolute Evil borrows from such films as Kill Bill and Planet of the Apes, but steals more heavily from Lommel's own C-grade horror efforts, such as The Boogeyman, BTK Killer, Green River Killer, Killer Pickton, and Mummy Maniac. In other words, Absolute Evil borrows extensively from other filmmakers. There are a few fancy cinematic moments in Absolute Evil, and if one looked carefully one might find these, too, have been borrowed from other movies. Absolute Evil is technically terrible -- the lighting and sound are in particular abysmal. The reviewer for Hollywood Reporter got it right when he said, the film "is quite simply excruciating to watch." Whoever wrote in the IMDb comments that this was a great movie must have mistaken Absolute Evil for some other flick.

After being caged in a Lionsgate Serial Killer Contract for more than two Years exiled German Indie Cult Director Ulli Lommel is back at his best. At the Berlin film festival he premiered and succeeded with the audience, but , as I experienced at a press screening, led also into a real controversy..Love is not colder than death,, because Death is not cool anymore. Sure Lommels new Flic is a hell of a genre mix of film noir, road movie and western with a lot of violence and torture, sure it's still a Lommel with its unique style somewhere between indie and big screen movie, but he's changing the subject. of a modern thriller. Before there were innocents who became bad, or villains, who couldn't cope with their past. But for the very first time, without playing on one's heart strings. Love and Forgiveness are presented as a solution in this deeply violent story . Maybe this alienates, because viewing habits are going to be mixed up, but you can't cheer Obama and enjoy ego shooters at the same time. Lommels Absolute Evil is more a vision for the next 40 years than a reminiscence to Love is colder than death from 1969. And to all you critics who won't understand now: You buried Fassbinder in a Museum , but you're afraid of Lommel, because he is alive!

Absolute Evil is Carradine's best film since Kill Bill. And that is strange, because Absolute Evil is very much along the lines of Tarentino's narrative. The good becomes the bad and the bad turns good. Evil is a complex force in this fascinating twist of film noir and horror film and suspense thriller. The film itself is a love declaration to the horror genre, and pumps new life in it. And Ulli Lommel, who also wrote and directed, is terrific as the Private Eye that tortures a killer. The film is short and sweet. 80 minutes of inspired suspense, and a total departure from Lommel's previous low-budget true-crime horror flicks.

I saw "Absolute Evil' at Berlin International Film Festival in Zoo Palast theater. The premiere and the next screening of the movie were sold out and it's one of the biggest theaters - if not the biggest - in Berlin. It had a great review on a German magazine so I wanted to see it and I was lucky enough to get the ticket."Absolute Evil' is simply the best film Ulli Lommel has made since 1980s. And the important thing is that it proofs that the director still has his talent after all these serial killer movies and everything.The movie tells a story about Savannah (Carolyn Neff) who's boyfriend Cooper (Rusty Joiner) gets killed after she finds out who Cooper really is. She wants to find out the killer of Cooper, and things leads to the old leader of 17th street gang, Raf (David Carradine). I don't want to tell too much about the movie, so that's all I say about the story. There is some great performances by the actors. Neff is beautiful, believable and good in her first big film role, Joiner gives a touching performance and the "old stars" Christopher Kriesa, Ulli Lommel and David Carradine are as good as always. It's nice to see that Carradine has made at least one good movie after "Kill Bill" films.It's a must see and it was b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l on the big screen in a theater with 1,000 people.
