Review of Hostel (2011) by Brandon W — 22 Nov 2015
Even when Quentin Tarantino is an executive producer of Hostel, I still was skeptic on seeing it after watching Cabin Fever, but it's better then I thought was going to be, but it's not a masterpiece or anything.
The writing is better, and the acting is a bit better too. The effects look even better than Cabin Fever, since it's by the same people. The characters are nothing special as usual in Eli Roth films, but in this film, they're not as mean spirited as the characters in Cabin Fever.
The plot is nonexistence in this, and is more of an excuse to get to the torture porn scenes. It's a little funnier, and it gets more entertaining when it gets to the last 20 minutes of the film. So while Hostel is better than Cabin Fever, it's a very flawed movie that seems like he's just going to make horror films that are only style over substance.
