Review of Faust

Faust (2000)
4/10
I'll be damned if I'm going to give this a good review
7 December 2020
This DVD has sat on my shelf for 6 years, bought it cheap secondhand. Good job as it's not worth more than the £1 that it cost me. I'm not saying that this comic book fantasy/horror/comedy movie is bad but it certainly isn't good either. There is plenty of action, bloodshed, sex and an abudence of special effects, both CGI and practical. Plus metal bands such as Machine Head, Sepultura, Fear Factory and Coal Chamber contribute to the soundtrack. Sadly I found the plot silly, I didn't like any of the characters and much of the acting was awful. Two of the leads are played by British actors with terribly phoney sounding "American" accents. An adult movie, hence the 18 certificate (UK), but not my cup of tea, disappointing despite the lure of genre heavyweights Brian Yuzna and Jeffrey Combs.
