Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
... View MoreIt isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
... View MoreIt’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

... View MoreIn my opinion this is one of the best (Dutch) series of the last past years.If you want to call it series anyways... There is not really a storyline that runs thru the whole series, and there are no characters that are in multiple episodes. The thing that connects the episodes, is that every one of them is based on a real life murders in the Netherlands. In the episodes you see the aspects that led to the murder, viewed from the perspective of the 'criminals'. Every episode feels like a short film, many of them with great actors, scripts, and overall very high-quality feel. The thing that attracted me in this series, is that it often shows that killers are normal people too, most of the time driven over the edge by there surroundings. End the end of the episodes i often got the feeling that the person did the right thing by (intentionally, or not) kill other people. It was a weird feeling, almost understanding the killers. But that only shows the power of good storytelling. And by doing such a great job at that with this series, it is really is the best dutch series in a long while.
... View MoreThis is one of the best series on dutch television. Every week a new episode with every episode another true story. Most of them are in the genre horror or action. With subjects as Gayhate, Drugdealers getting shot or some other things!! In the most episodes are some dutch celebrities. And in every episode is another cast and another director. The first time i saw Van God Los it was a movie that was made in 2003. When i heard there was coming a series of this movie i toughed finally!! I recommend it to everyone i know.. And i hope that they are gonna make a season 3 after season 2 what's bye the way going to his second episode this week! Every week i'm looking forward to another episode! I really dig this thing!
