The Riot Club is about the two first-year Oxford University students, Miles and Alistair, join the institution's infamous "dining club" - where money and privilege reign and rules are made to be broken.

Now I'm going to dive in straight away why I really dislike this movie and why on earth this movie got a positive reaction to people.

The character in this movie have to be the most despicable, rude, A- holes in a movie history. I hated every single one of them in this movie, I wish those A-holes will get death at the end and I was extremely disappointing that it didn't happen. I liked the actors but not the character's.

The movie itself has nothing to give if it's interesting or remember-able. Boring and dull is what this movie gives to us and I think the directing and the writing has something to do with it. 7.9 out of 100% on Rotten Tomatoes really? well they give sharknado a 8.2 out of 100% so what the hell, and yeah you be thinking that I'm viewing this movie by it's rating, but people are going to look the rating and "Hmm should be good",I just hate that a bad movie that doesn't even try get's a high rating and better movie that always get overlooked get the low rating or nobody see it at all.

Now for the good: The acting was good, the way the film is shot was pretty neat. And that's it, this movie blows.… Expand

The effort in the 20 seconds I just spent on thinking of how to rate this film seems substantially more than the producer and director spent on honestly caring if this turned out to be a good film or not.

I generously give it a 3 only because of Amber Anderson's attractive qualities and the one bit of intelligence the casting crew made on attaining her services.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was undoubtedly the WORST film I have ever seen. I have a relatively high threshold when it comes to film violence but this film was nauseatingly violent. It functions as no more than a tacky, cheap and unoriginal commentary on British upper class elitism. The film, for the first three-quarters is boring, ultimately glorifying hedonism, sexism and racism. Then the most violent, poorly crafted scene confronts you. The violence in this almost ritualistic fight scene is atrocious. Above all, the scene is misplaced and jolting. I found myself unable to complete the scene, skipping over it for the most part. Then you are slammed with some atrocious vow of mate-ship, followed by further glorification of notions that the rich are superior to the poor. I gave this movie one-star because for the first ten minutes I enjoyed gawking at the British talent. However, this does not in any way improve the film. I cannot find the words to fully express my disdain towards this film. Do not watch this film! The violence is borderline assaulting and the plotline is incredibly shallow and dry.… Expand
