Product Description

British thriller in which a carefree holiday in Spain for three young women turns into a living nightmare. Things begin to go awry when Kim (Jaime Winstone), Tammi (Nichola Burley) and Lisa (Sian Breckin) meet three young men and, after joining them for a private party on their yacht, one of the men, Josh (Julian Morris), performs a dangerous anal sex manoeuvre known as a 'donkey punch' on one of the women, accidentally breaking her neck in the process. To avoid getting in trouble with the police, the other five decide to throw the body overboard. Pretty soon, however, guilt and fear get the better of the group, leading to a vicious fight for survival.

Donkey Punch is such a hit and miss film. Directed by Oliver Blackburn in his feature length debut, it features some interesting ideas but ultimately falls flat by bringing nothing new to the table and by having hit-and-miss dialogue and acting. Easily the best cast member is Jaime Winstone, showing she maybe has had the acting genes passed down from her dad but everyone else muddles their way through. Blackburn has managed to make what looks like a well-polished and professional film, and he manages to build up the story reasonably well, but after the 'Donkey Punch' it does lose its way and doesn't keep the tension or suspense required to keep the viewer hooked. Overall, it is a bit of a missed opportunity but still worth a rental. 2.5/5

Although it was violent, it showed how easily young people can get themselves into escalating situations and then panic with devastating consequences

I've never attended media or drama school , never done film studies or anything like that but I imagine that if I had one of the things they would tell you is, if you are making a film where characters are in genuine peril make sure that the audience cares about some of them . Otherwise the audience has no emotional investment in the piece and it fails as a true drama. It helps if they can act too.
Donkey Punch ultimately fails because it is (mostly) populated by loathsome characters doing squalid things and then turning on each other like a pack of rabid polecats. Three friends from Leeds-Kim (Jaime Winstone) , Tammi (Nicola Burley) and Lisa ( Sian Brekin) are on holiday in Majorca when they meet up with a gang of lads who have access to a very nice yacht. Seduced by the glamour of the boat, the location and the boys they allow themselves to be taken out to sea . A jokey interlude leads to a sexual reference that has tragic ,though slightly unbelievable, consequences , and before long everyone is at each others throats like contestants on "Come Dine With Me " but without the sarcastic voice over( that would have helped make the film more enjoyable ) and the body count starts to rise .
I have no problem with young people, hell I was one myself once, and have no problem with them enjoying themselves. However I would caution any young women to be wary of boys they have just met and definitely not to do drugs and have unprotected sex ( though it transpires STD,s are the least of their worries) with them .Though as it happens a neck brace is needed more than a condom. This unfortunate proclivity means I didn't have as much sympathy with them as I might have done ,especially since the lads were such a set of objectionable toe-rags.

Here are three reasons why Donkey Punch is one of the finest films ever made.
1) The plot is amazing. Three chavvy tarts meet some creepy blokes on holiday, then decide to join them on a luxury boat for some fun and frolics. There are loads of tense scenes and plot developments in the first thirty minutes. I particularly liked the part where one of the girls has to decide whether to go swimming or not. Gripping.
2) The characters are all really loveable, especially the three braindead chavs who accept drugs off complete strangers and allow them to video their "adult fun". Good idea. The four guys are very sympathetic aswell, with clearly defined characters that really make us care about them.
3) The incident that fuels the latter part of the story is very accurate and believable, because you definitely can kill someone instantly by slapping them on the back of the neck. Other lethal techniques include a chinese burn and a dead leg.
This movie will probably go on to win more Academy Awards than both Godfather films put together and will doubtless be remembered in years to come as the most influential and original slasher film in history.

This was okay. There is a story to it, and there was enough nudity and goriness.

By Cartimand TOP 1000 REVIEWERVINE VOICE on 11 April 2012
Format: Blu-ray
Saw this Blu-Ray in the bargain bin and thought I'd give it a shot. Not knowing quite what to expect (I thought it would be another formulaic slasher genre movie), it turned out to be something of a modern morality tale. Reasonably well acted (particularly from the chip off the old geezer's block Jaime Winstone), it builds at a measured pace with the players initially out for a little hedonistic fun, until things go suddenly and shockingly wrong. Bad choices compound the wrongness and the nightmare just keeps on getting worse. The problem is that none of the characters - the tarty girls or the irresponsibly careless lads, are in the slightest bit likeable. Thus, without feeling much if any empathy, the viewer cares little what happens to any of them. Furthermore, some of the ensuing action and deaths are pretty damn implausible. Maybe I'm being a tad harsh; on the plus side, the Blu-Ray image quality is very good, with some of the ocean and yacht scenes being truly spectacular and 5.1 surround sound is used to good effect. Loads of extras too, including interviews with all of the main players and a comprehensive making of feature. To summarise, if you're not too picky and don't have too high an expectation, Donkey Punch is a watchable and occasionally entertaining yarn which, despite the wanton nudity and drugs, boils down to a surprisingly traditional and moral cautionary tale.

Worth a look.
