The HERO F @RT41364019 2 days ago Very interesting and intense movie. It forces you to think about whether you are a product of your environment or are you running from your sad reality. It forces you to look in the mirror and acknowledge what you've become while also showing you who you can be and the struggle most people have about accepting something new, something different and letting go of who you used to me.

To top it off no closure with an ending, don’t waste your time. See more Melanie C @Peachmelpet Sep 26, 2026 Just an amazing film. It manages to convince you that being completely immoral and messed up can actually be a good thing! A great film and a great cast See more Kalissa H @kali_416 Sep 19, 2026 Really interesting and unique movie. See more NerdCall T @nerdcall Sep 14, 2026 Heel does something kind of twisted: it starts by showing you an insufferable kid, puts him in the hands of a completely dysfunctional family, and after a while makes you think, "maybe this is actually working." And that’s exactly where the movie finds its best idea. Tommy starts to change, the house begins to feel less like a prison and more like a home, the bonds start to form, and suddenly you have to remind yourself that all of this began with kidnapping, violence, and a chain around his neck. Jan Komasa plays really well with that discomfort and never gives you an easy answer about who’s right. The problem is that the movie could have been much darker and more disturbing than it chooses to be, especially considering everything it hints at about that family. Still, when you realize you’re almost rooting for them to stay together, it’s a sign that something in there worked very well. See more Briana I @Anaire Sep 13, 2026 This one sent me on a psychological rollercoaster..I usually know what's gonna happen in every movie but this one was very unexpected for all the right reasons. I didn't want to like this because the concept was heavy and disturbing but overall Jan Komasa did an amazing job with this film. Extremely thought provoking and moving I'm so many ways. I also understand why some may not have understood or liked this movie because normal people who think "why the hell would he want to go back." But I get what the director was conveying in this film. Very good, a hidden gem I will never forget! Simply amazing film. See more Read all reviews
