The "Green Inferno" movie review justifies the stomach-turning gorefest-related suspense the trailer successfully incited - and Eli Roth and his team did it in the most graphic way possible.
Although the film's official release date in cinemas is still in the dark, several "Green Inferno" movie review blogs have already been published. Obviously, personal preferences may have come into play when it came to assessing how effective the movie was. Nonetheless, all of them were unified in confirming that the flick did deliver palpable shock factors, as proven by the unrelenting raw violence only a cannibal-centered plot can bring.
Bad Ass digest detailed in their "Green Inferno" movie review some of the "dining" scenes. These involved the cannibals feasting on the victims, one delectable body part at a time. They noted that despite starting out slowly, the film quickly escalates to become highly suspenseful and nerve-wracking.
The gist of the movie's plot is relatively simple, though, as noted by The List.
After the crash landing in the Amazon forest they were attempting to save, the well-meaning college activists were immediately captured by the natives. It was in captivity that they discovered the chaotic and horrific truth about the nature and practice of the tribe populating the area.
JoBlo expressed appreciation for what Eli Roth did in the movie. They categorized the film as an "endurance flick" whereby the goal was not for the audience to like it, but to test their ability to stomach it - literally and figuratively speaking. The site noted that the film stayed true to the director's reputation for exhibiting blood-curdling violence and slaughter.
All in all, "Green Inferno" movie reviews agree that it is one of those films that may not be everyone's cup of tea (or plate). Given the intensely brutal depictions, it is never for the faint of heart and stomach. However, the same advice cannot be applied to audiences who crave for films that test their eyes' and minds' limits: this is the type of movie they will definitely relish.
