The Lost Samaritan (2009)

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

I have just finished watching this movie on TV and I hurried here to say how impressed I am by the superb craftsmanship behind it. This is not your average crime movie and I'm absolutely stunned to read the fiercely negative reviews by other posters. Didn't they notice the talented cast, the original touch of the creators and, most of all, the movie's emphasis on the power of coincidence?Yes, there are many coincidences in this movie. As a matter of fact, as far as I'm concerned, it shows how a long string of unfortunate coincidences can move your life forward and determine your fate. As someone who has observed this aspect of life for a long time, I am beyond delighted to see how the authors of the movie, the person who conceived and wrote the script, are drawing attention to this as coincidence is something most people fail to notice. Is this why most posters on this page failed to see what is plain to me?I guess they expected to see a plot that nobody has ever seen before. That's understandable but not everything that can make a movie great. Sometimes the beauty is in the details or in the way they fall and meet together. This is one of those rare movies for me. Please note that I haven't said a thing about the plot because I don't want to spoil it for you and get banned from IMDb - you have all the power to see it and decide for yourself and disagree with me if you wish, for that's your right. I just want to attract your attention to what I think is its defining feature.I also believe that the story is very logical, indeed. Perhaps it is because, having seen how life has been a chain of coincidences for many people around, this movie appears entirely realistic to me. Beyond realistic, in fact. Others could call it "contrived" for the same reason but I would and will not. It just takes a pair of eyes and a bit of experience in the movie's direction to fully accept and agree with its viewpoint.Thank you for listening and I wish a pleasant viewing to anyone who will brave the negative reviews.

The movie is about an accountant who gets into trouble when he tries to save a man from a car accident. That act gets him to be followed by two guys who tries to kill him. It only gets worse when he discovers that the men has killed his wife and her lover and he runs from the crime scene..Even though Ian Somerhalder stars in this, he can't save it for a second.. The only reason why it gets 4 stars is because they tried do to a good movie, and Ian can act (though quite bad in this particular movie.. he's better in Lost and The Vampire Diaries). Very bad acting from the other so called actors and actresses. Pretty bad plot and the lines aren't very good either..

Movie is predictable, boring, and the acting is horrible, only thing I would like to add is I really liked Ruta Gedmintas, never heard of her before but shes hott sh*t and there doesn't seem to be a lot of coverage on her on the web, I definitely hope I see her again somewhere though.....This film is by far the worst i have ever seen!! It could very well be the worst movie in human history!! I thought it would be a thrilling story but it kind of looks like a high school project done by students aiming very low.. The acting is so bad that i wanted to cry a some points and the whole story line is so predictable and badly done. Im sorry but no one in their right mind could like this film.

Its almost like i want people to watch it just so they could share the experience of this high level crap movie. So.. My advice is to watch it some day when your mood is up, so you wont commit suicide! But please, watch it! You will surtenly regret it!
