Giallo (2009)
High impact violence and sexual references
| Director: | Dario Argento |
| Actors: | Adrien Brody, Emmanuelle Seigner, Elsa Pataky, Robert Miano, Valentina Izumi |
Yellow chooses his female victims based on their beauty, the more beautiful they are, the more likely they are to be kidnapped by him. He toys with them, abuses their mind and body, and then kills them. And he’s clever too, only going after tourists, women who won’t find an advocate in the police department. His latest victim is Celine, a gorgeous American fashion model, whose sister Linda, along with help from an FBI agent, embarks on a dangerous pursuit of this mysterious predator. As Linda and the detective close in on Celine, a chance encounter with Yellow puts Linda on his radar, and now he yearns to kill her as well. Both sisters are in jeopardy, and the clock is ticking.

You won't get your 1.5 hours back after this.

At the end of Giallo, I couldn't decide who I felt the most sorry for. Was it Argento for being so far past his prime, Adrien Brody (who probably spent several days curled up in the foetal position, sobbing and clutching his Oscar statuette after seeing the first screening of this) or myself for actually having bothered to watch the whole thing? Woeful.

Given Mathew Brody's involvement, the location, and the beautiful Elsa Pataky, I was eager to see this. But I was sorely disappointed. Bad acting, bad plot. Low budget or not, it could have been much better.

Should disclose I am a huge Dario Argento fan and have had to wait years since seeing everything else in the collection. This is nowhere near as good as Tenebre, Suspiria, or Phenomena, and nowhere near as bad as these reviews suggest. As for the acting Stephen King says it's the story not he who tells it.

Unfortunate;y the appearance of Adrian Brody did not help this film in any way, We suffered through the first 45 minutes and couldn't bear any more. The story is very disjointed and the acting from Adrian's costar is atrocious.

One of the worst movies i have seen in a long time. Awful acting, terrible plot, a complete waste of time. The characters are so underdeveloped and unbeliveable that it is impossible to be affected by the story. Avoid at all costs!

A typical Dario Argento film, with lots of bright red blood, artistic scenery shots and a soundtrack which could be in a romance movie. Unfortunately, the story just falls flat and it isn't very interesting or engaging. Possibly die-hard Argento fans might like it.
