Good attempt... was intriguing initially but eventually the gimmick wore off and by then the story ran out of steam!

The good news I finally reached the point I can accept and like Daniel Radcliffe in a role other than Harry Potter! He actually was pretty darn good in this!

Was an interesting watch and not a bad way to spend your time as long as you are the kind that can suspend disbelief easily!

This is a movie about a guy, played by Daniel Radcliffe, who can communicate with snakes. It also involves elements of magic (realism). Who’d ever think that a combination of those things would comprise such an engaging film? Well? And I’m not even biased as a result of Juno Temple’s involvement (not really anyways, since she’s barely in it). No, Horns truly deserves much more praise than it has received, because - setting aside the over-the-top ending - it is (a) hugely entertaining, (b) extremely original and (c) filled with amusing symbolic Easter eggs. I was thrilled. Adding this to my 2013 top 20 now.

This movie makes about as much sense as people who think Blackhat is a good movie.

Directed by Alexandre Aja (Haute Tension / Mirrors), Horns is a dark-comedy thriller mystery film with a bit of fantasy thrown in. And If that sounds like a lot of genres to juggle, it is - and Horns does it darndest to keep those balls in the air. And speaking of balls, Daniel Radcliffe commits as a man accused of the rape and murder of his girlfriend who uses the magical lasso-of-truth-like properties of the literal horns growing out of his head to uncover the real killer.

There is a real attempt at greatness here which should be noted and encouraged - and at times the film surprises - but not always in a good way.

Will be discussed on our next Top 10 Last 10 podcast episode.

I actually quite enjoyed this film, and if you can look past Daniel Radcliffe’s American accent and you like a bit of a satanic theme then you just might enjoy it too.

Did this movie win a lot of “Bad Raspberry” awards, because WOOF what a stinker. Everything about this is a bad movie!

HORNS macht eines der wichtigsten Dinge richtig: Er interessiert sich nicht für den Massengeschmack oder seine Akzeptanz

Er muss dadurch jedoch auch nicht über die Stränge schlagen, den Fehler umschifft er gekonnt.
Er erzählt eine emotionale WHO DONE IT Geschichte mit einem Schuss Fantasie und geht dabei gerne Mal einen halben Schritt weiter als andere, ob es sich nun um den Humor oder seine Schauwerte dreht

Redcliffe ist immer eine sichere Bank

I came so close to loving this film.

For the first two thirds, I was thinking 'I bet not a lot of people appreciate the quirky shenanigans this movie is pulling off. I bet they cringe at this unnatural, off beat dialog and over-the-top dramatic set-pieces, but *i* get what it's going for. It's not forced or misguided, it's outlandish and charming.'

But even I have my limits. Even I have a point where I stop seeing an artist's eccentric voice and just start seeing... Well, the special effects of a Doctor Who episode and an ending that I'm not entirely convinced the crew didn't make up as they were shooting.

It goes too far is what I'm saying.
I still like it, for the most part.
I just think
it needs to
draw its horns in.

There are so many reasons why this shouldn't work - yet, none of them apply to this wonderfully gruesome, madcap piece of film magic by Alexandre Aja, its balls-to-the-wallness anchored (and fueled) by a heartfelt central performance by Radcliffe.
