Critics Consensus

A pointless shocker and societal allegory, a film whose imagery is so gruesome as to leave you scarred for life...or rolling your eyes for 100 minutes.

3/4

The rare piece of transgressive art that's more grimly meditative than satirical or allegorical, A Serbian Film's most daring aspect may be the muddle of soul-searching it demands from its audience.

"A Serbian Film" revels in its sheer inventive awfulness and dares the viewer to find a more serious layer of meaning.

An absolutely brutal, unrelenting, and depraved watch that is brought to life more effectively than it had any right to.

A Serbian Film still rips apart our morals, and deepthroats us with them until we vomit our own regrets. For me it still holds the title as most nasty, disturbing, controversial and fucked-up horror movie to ever exist.

A Serbian Film seems to have more in mind than it conveys on the outer surface. But it remains effective, one gruesome way or another.

purely just for shock value and nothing else. causes existencial dread all throughout the entire runtime of this dogshit garbage. It goes where no movie would normally go because it's low and uses a "message" as a facade to cover up the fact it's really just to shock people. Edgelord directing at it's finest. Anyone saying this is transgressive and meaningful art or that it's good is either mentally fucked up, gullible, or just full of shit and maybe even all combined.

Is what it is. Shlock. Disturbing and people will try and find merit artistically. Trust me, there isn’t any. Truly disturbing and worthy of its poor rating. Even as a curio, do not watch! .

Seeing this film as it is shows one thing clearly to me: it sucks. It was purely made for shock value and has no point existing in cinema. While I did enjoy some parts of the film, it is tasteless, and were it not for the shock factor, A Serbian Film wouldn’t be praised by nitwits who think it is a masterpiece of horror. Either way, the movie does have some good scenes, and you can still enjoy it if you want. You do what you want I am just an amateur reviewer.

A juvenile attempt at provocation. About as sophisticated as The Human Centipede, despite its attempts at the trappings of political allegory. As nasty as it is vapid.
