Brief synopsis of Waz

In Waz bodies are turning up in the city streets - some horribly mutilated, others with an equation craved into their flesh. Detective Argo (Skarsgard) and his new partner (George) unearth the meaning of the equations, only to realise that each victim is being offered a grusome choice: kill your loved ones or be killed...

Rated - 3 starsStay with it and you will be rewarded..

PaulaWestwood from Ashton-Under-Lyne [Highly rated reviewer] , 24/02/2008

So what WAZ that all about, the first 25 minutes and you are fidgeting and wondering where all this is going, gangs - police infighting, random bodies. Stay with it though, because after those 25 minutes it all starts to make some sort of sense, and turns out to be a more than watchable movie with a reasonable few twists and grips that will keep you entertained. If you miss it at the cinema this is a perfect one to have on your rental list, not a list topper, but definately worth a watch nonetheless.

Rated - 5 starsWAZ

A customer from London , 15/06/2008

A dark and dingy delight, this neo-noir thriller from deb director Tom Shankland has more twists and turns than a barrel full of snakes!

Featuring grit-filled performances from a fantastic cast, including a stellar turn from Mr Skarsgard, grimy cinematography and adrenaline fuelled editing this movie takes you to the dark heart of the human soul.

Forget Saw, this film owes far more to Seven in tone but with a style and edge all of its own. A Must-See!

WazzoK from London , 07/10/2008

Very disappointing. The bit where they destroy the lead char in a hail of sparks with the mains transformer in the garden out the back of the big mansion house, not the small one, really made me believe that some people have lesser or no imagination dependent on the pre-consumed media in the same manner that most abductees describe aliens as grey or Blue with those large shiny eyes? But surely their planet would not have the same output from their star.. who would believe that coincidence.. Ahh you say they are really us .. coming back from the future.. but hey! they would need torches as the Sun is getting bigger and bigger over time.. it will be 20% bigger before too long.. only a cooupla bliion years too go.

Rated - 3 starsNice thriller

A customer from West Bromwich , 04/07/2008

Starts off as a standard thriller but there are a few twists and turns that all come together at the end to finish things off nicely. Lovely stuff.
