WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

TdSmth5 A mute girl named Karma infiltrates a Russian sex/strippers/drug mafia in Canada to look for those responsible for her sister's death. In flashbacks we see how her sister ended up there. She met some woman in Russia who offered her work and opportunity. She's transported to Canada where suddenly things turn much uglier than promised.It takes a while for things to turn violent but eventually Karma pretends to be a stripper to entice one of the mobsters and then she kills him. Little by little she moves up the mobster ladder but then she's grabbed. But she also meets some agent who helps her out. Eventually she meets the big boss and suddenly there's a neat twist that comes out of nowhere.This is a B revenge flick that hinges entirely on the lovely Shera Bechard. She does a great job, looks stunning, and does her action stunts well, too. It must be a dream of lazy filmmakers to write a mute main character but it doesn't do much for the audience. The surprise twist came out of nowhere but really worked well. Given the themes and Bechard's attractiveness, there should have been more nudity. Action too is a bit subdued. But overall a decent attempt.

kosmasp Even if was not done to death in the seventies (sorry for the pun), it would've been predictable. So that's not the reason you'll be watching this. The beautiful main actress might be, plus the fact, that she is dishing revenge/justice to a point. Since she's mute, her performance relies on other things. Which might be a good thing on one hand, on the other acting mute is not as easy as it sounds.It's actually more difficult and I wouldn't argue that our main actress has mastered that. But this is a sleaze movie, with a theme that is going other places. So you will be more interested in the action set pieces, which are decent enough. As is the movie as whole. There have been way better movies than this, but also worse ones

petropolisy I would not call this a unwatchable film but it is best if you fast forward most of it its better. Not many Russians in Toronto more Iranians and most just want to work and barty. 16 Blocks was filmed in Toronto as was Kick ass both cost a lot more to make but when you watch a film the cost that matters is your time more than the cost of the film. This film was shown at a few places were they do not speak English which may explain some good ratings. About as dumb a script as you could write bad acting directing bad ending. Toronto is cold in the winter but really nice in J J A you can get free beer across from the CN tower at Steam whistle, its a pils not my favorite type of beer but quite good just 5 or four things in it. I am only including this above information so reading this review will not be a total waste of time like this film.

mbaule My assignment for class was to review one of the movies I saw during the film festival so I picked this one to review because it was my favourite.OK, I did not expect to see this movie at the fantasia film festival. It was not on my list of movies to see because I had not seen it advertised anywhere. I saw a poster for it when I was walking out of another movie and it happened to be the next movie playing in the room I was just walking out of so I went to buy tickets to see it. Some of the movies I saw during the film festival were more like art and not necessarily intended for everyone. They are more like people's experiments in making movies. Then there were movies that were meant to entertain in the classic way. This movie fit more in the latter category. And in that way it was really good. The story of a mute Russian girl who wants to avenge her sister's death in a Toronto prostitute ring is not necessarily ground breaking but it makes for a very entertaining movie. I checked out some of the actors in the movie on IMDb and they're movie experience is small. But it did not seem that way in the movie. They were really believable. Especially the Russian boss guy and his Russian underling. Plus the main actress who plays Karma is really hot and she was a lot of fun to watch. Especially when she is beating up on guys. The fight scenes were really well done. Most of the story was good but I don't know why that cop had to be there near the end. I think he was the only bad part about the movie because he really wasn't very good. The end of the movie had me very surprised too. I think that was a great way to finish it. If it plays at any other film festivals near you, you should definitely go see Sweet Karma.I am giving it 7 stars because of the cop guy who annoyed me. Otherwise this would get a 8.
