This movie doesn't contain anything interesting, only violence and abuse with no other reason besides obsession and madness. A boring story about a guy named Jorge who abducts a woman and makes her "his wife" keeping her tied up and sedated for most of the movie. In the end she becomes mad like him.

If I hadn't seen a gazillion torture porn movies since Saw and Hostel, I might have thought that Honeymoon, from Mexican director Diego Cohen, was fairly decent. But I have, and it's about as clichéd and predictable as the now very stale genre gets.Paulina Ahmed stars as married woman Isabel Herrera, who is stalked by neighbour Jorge Toledo (Hector Kotsifakis), who eventually abducts the woman, keeping her tied up in his home. From here-on-in, it's all about the humiliation and pain. Jorge conducts a wedding ceremony to make her his wife, only to have his affection thrown back in his face, leaving him no option but to spray acid down her throat, flay her fingers, and rape her!Despite being quite nasty in tone, the unconvincing special effects and lack of originality prevent the film from being the gruelling experience that it so desperately wants to be. Add the fact that, when Isabel finally gets the upper hand, she fails to finish off Jorge despite plenty of opportunity, and what we have is far from satisfying experience. Remember ladies: always make sure your psycho is definitely dead before attempting to escape!A twist regarding the true nature of Isabel's abduction does little to improve matters; ditto for the final revelation that the victim, having dispatched of Jorge by pushing his face in a barrel of acid, has now become the tormentor.3.5 out of 10, rounded up to 4 for IMDb.

Most abduction movies work up to the actual abduction slowly, building up the tension. In this film, the abduction takes place in the first five minutes. When something like this happens, my first thought that this better be good. And it is.The tension created, the things that happen--one in particular quite stomach-churning--are to be experienced for themselves. Unlike your typical American or Japanese style gorefest, the things that happen here feel very real and uncomfortable. I actually became nauseated at one point, and I am most definitely not the type to be affected by a movie, not on a physical level.It is amazing to see the difference between the insipid, utterly moronic American take on the abduction theme and this one. Take, for example, the pathetic joke that was "Pet." The abduction takes place, we settle in our seats waiting to cringe at whatever sick crap the abductor has in store while hoping the heroine will make it out, and then...we are treated to a "twist" so utterly stupid and imbecilic that you wonder what these little vanilla sissies were even thinking of.If you want actual horror that will push the limits without being afraid of offending its morally superior, goody-two-shoes American vanilla dunce of an audience, you need to look elsewhere. France. Korea. Here, Mexico does not disappoint.Don't pay attention to the negative reviews. One takes issue because a poor little woman is the one in the predicament as if it were a political statement, and the other thinks it's "disturbing" and "unnecessarily violent." Are you kidding me? Disturbing is what a film like this SHOULD be. If you don't want "violence," go watch your soulless Hollywood blockbusters.Recommended.

I feel like the only reason this film was made was because the director wanted an reason to portray a woman being tortured over and over. Graphic scenes can be a powerful way to advance a story if used correctly, but the plot was barely existent and only seemed to be there as an excuse to shoot a series of scenes. The only thing this movie made me feel was revulsion. Nothing else about it stood out. I didn't get involved with the story, the cinematography was unremarkable and the pacing was awkward.I regret watching it all the way through. Don't waste your time with this, even if you enjoy gore and violence. There are way better movies out there.
