i saw hostel tonight with a crowd that be very receptive to the experience . mine be more hostile . the film open like a teen sex comedy . we be mean to identify with three young guy and who idea of fun be get high and have sex with prostitute . this first section be litter with naked woman and in what might just be the least sexy presentation of naked woman anywhere . one can sense director eli roth and his crony give each other high five off camera and much like the silhouetted threesome early on in the film and a they pay surgically enhance woman to take their clothes off . the three men find themselves in slovakia and and in what be refer to a an art show or an exhibit . rich men have pay russian gangster to torture and ultimately murder a human be and our hero . subject . one by one and the men be torture and kill in escalate graphic manner . the final man escape and be involve in a car chase and and ultimately become what he be try to escape . this be and at it black heart and a very dumb movie . probably and the most clever thing in the film and be the very weak parallel drawn between the legalized red light district in amsterdam and and the illicit torture room in slovakia . everything else be just baloney . we do not really care about the three men and so the torture that they endure aren not really effective at elicit any sympathy and it more that be glad it not happen to u . the motivation for the men that torture be never make clear and it more a general sociopathic disconnect that vaguely hint at . it also worthwhile note that the one character that seem to be gay be single out a the bad of the torturer and far contribute to the filmic stereotype of homosexual a homicidal . one should also note the historical context of the film . this be an american movie and about torture people and make at a time when america and right or wrong and be receive flak for torture prisoner in iraq and elsewhere and and make no mention of the current world situation . it also worth note that the audience i watch this picture with cheered and applaud at each new horror . it all seem so circus maximus .
