Review of Only God Forgives (2013) by Daeboner — 20 Jul 2013

This is clearly a controversial film. When I saw it, half the theater walked out and the other half gave it a standing ovation and stayed through the end of the credits.

I think that if you treat the world Refn has created as its own self contained universe, whose characters are doomed to repeat their lives in perpetuity, you can begin to understand how to approach Only God Forgives, a stunning, horrible, disgusting, flawless, self-indulgent masterpiece.
