MPAA Rating: R

Yeah, sure... "Relentlessly graphic and deeply disturbing", just not enough so to get stamped with a taboo NC-17 rating...

If it's anything like "Saw", that means spliced together with goofy X-TREME MTV editing while skimping out on the actual violence and gore...

You know something bad is happening because the camera is shaking, it's obnoxiously fast-forwarding through the scene and jumping from one camera to another to another to another approx. 50 times in 3 seconds...

I dunno though, the setting looks fun...

Edit: (from a review) "It's hard not to feel somewhat disappointed by Hostel, given that writer/director Eli Roth kept proclaiming that the film was to be an uncompromisingly disturbing exercise in fear. But, as it turns out, the movie is no more extreme than most similarly-themed R-rated flicks and it seems fairly obvious that Roth was forced to censor himself in order to placate the MPAA."

What I tell ya?
