shannen-l-c 'Horns' is an utterly unique movie experience that had me (and my entire family!) hooked from beginning to end. It blends various genres that you wouldn't expect to work, but the result is an intriguing and engaging movie that evokes the whole human spectrum of emotion. Daniel Radcliffe's performance as the lead, Ig, is amazing and having spent my entire life unable to separate him from Harry Potter, this is the performance that broke him away from Harry Potter forever in my mind. Ig's character is intriguing and the question that was in my mind throughout was whether he was good or bad, the protagonist or the antagonist. The implication at the beginning is that he's grown the horns due to the evil he's committed, but as you follow him throughout the movie and see his humanity, you find yourself questioning that more and more. The idea behind the horns is somewhat unclear and ambiguous (which was one of the main issues I had with the movie), but they result in some rather dark yet humorous encounters that I thoroughly enjoyed watching. The religious connotations attached to the horns were also somewhat unambiguous and there were certain scenes towards the end that felt a little ridiculous and 'out there' even for this movie. However, I'm able to let that go on the basis that I enjoyed the movie as a whole. The plot itself evolves throughout the movie as it weaves in and out the various themes and genres, but by the end its focus is very much on the mystery and romance. Although it's definitely a flawed movie that could've been vastly improved by clearer explanations for the horns, the experience overall is enjoyable and unique. The themes of horror, thriller, mystery, romance, fantasy, religion and crime all come together in a very new way to create a movie that is very much a stand alone in the horror genre.
trashmail-72817 Very original concept! Ideal for a night at home. Not a too complicated story and easy to follow. Some things in this story don't really make sense, but it's forgivable. Amazing twist towards the end of the movie resulting in giving you an emotional rush. Con's: Max Minghella delivers a weak performance (like always) and weak choise of music.I see some people giving this movie a 10/10 here and there. This movie is not that, but it sure is worth watching.
vicksel Ultimate love story.It's like literature on screen, pure and full of symbolism like Shakespeare.A piece of art.Thank for this wonderful little gemI forgive you the ending...it's an American production right? So I forgive.Camerwork, editing, visuals, actors, everything is just really well done with the utmost caring for this art piece. Too bad this movie never received the credit as it should have.
katana-890-299661 OK, my BIGGEST hang up with this film, is Joe King displays a clear homophobia in this movie. Why have a gay character who is only gay if "satan" makes him come out of the closet?Why then, after displaying that this character is gay, do you THEN murder him in the most messed up visual way? Don't gay people deserve happiness?What is the point other than to display that you don't like homosexuals?It was a point in the film that did NOT progress the story along- there was NO reason to do that. But hey- the DRUG ADDICTED brother gets to live right- cause cocaine and pills galore is just peachy right? THAT behavior is somehow worth promoting eh?Senseless portrayal of gay people. I don't recommend this film and the ending is ridiculous. There is NO Explanation for the film, NO Wrap up- nothing it is just over...Im sure 12 years old love this film.Edit: Pretty important to note... When the gay character is killed off- well its as if he never existed cause NO ONE of the other characters even cares.
