mckennaOct 15, 2024After this film ended and I shook my head in disbelief at what I had watched and that the film even got made in the first place, I decided to look up who directed it and who produced it. Directed by Jordan Scott, the daughter of Ridley Scott, who also produced. It all makes…

I like how the Netflix subtitles kept saying "intriguing music plays" Dawg, not a single second of this was intriguing, who are you lying to?
LinkyNov 11, 2024Ben, an American social psychologist played by Eric Bana, investigates a local cult in Berlin after a disturbing event, while his daughter becomes involved with a strange, unsettling local boy. The film is a psychological thriller drama, and it tries to explore trauma,…

One of the worst films of the year. Painfully slow and horribly edited. The performances are good, but the film itself is awful
I think this movie i better than its kritics. Its catchy emotional and real drives you in to a ban but the apart from the two main characters the chracter develomentbis to fast you cant really understand what the do and why and that makes you not understand them. 1/4
4.8 - Though nothing about this is particularly bad, it was pretty bland. The cult elements are incredibly standard, though it was nice to see a route taken that wasn’t exclusively religious based. The twist was predictable to me, & no acting performances particularly stood out in a positive way.…

this was so crazy like i don’t understand how people get themselves caught up in stuff like that.
6.5/10 honestly surprised to see so many negative reviews. wasn’t the best movie but i liked its focus on cults and groupthink especially n an environmental way. idea and plot here was rly cool, but movie felt boring at times. acting was pretty mid. plot twists not meaningful

Predictable, slow, and boring. Nothing exciting happens and the movie just painfully drags. Skip it.
I pray i never become so weak minded and alone that i get roped into a cult 🙏🏽😭

It started slow but if you appreciate crime , and psychology, you will like this movie
If you like detective stories, this movie will be interesting to you.
Metacritic
While A Sacrifice‘s third act may be a bit too silly for its own good, the pervasive feeling of dread will linger on long after the credits roll.
The first two-thirds of A Sacrifice are a largely leaden affair that offers viewers little that they haven’t seen before. It isn’t even awful so much as it is intensely forgettable—the kind of film whose title eludes you even as you watch it.
The result is a movie that ultimately falls short on both suspense and ideas, though it remains watchable enough.
