Patologia

Some films are condemned to be compared to others already from their name (see the recent Waz). With Pathology, that comparison didn’t end up that bad because its competitor is the extraordinarily boring Anatomy. On the other hand, though, I can’t say this slightly horror crime-drama was particularly thrilling. The premise and the trailer promised more, but the result is quite bland. It has brutal and bloody scenes, so those who don’t like that should avoid it, but lacking style, they are derivative and uninteresting; therefore, this film is not even for those who enjoy such scenes. The storyline is quite weak and not very believable, and the performances of the main characters “contribute” to that – Milo Ventimiglia should stick to TV shows. As a thriller Pathology is average, as horror is very weak. Disappointing and 50%. (22.06.2008)

While the newcomer's scheme in a closed and highly suspicious group works perfectly, and Milo surprisingly enjoys his talented pathologist, attempts at hard music already have varying quality. I can handle burning sexual desire or more aggressive versions of Players with the reel, but drug breaths with fresh corpses or a change in the key character towards a psychopathic direction, not anymore.

The American film Pathology has a good atmosphere, but it also has its negatives. There are great scenes of pathological activity, but in contrast there are utterly annoying characters that you would kill in the first minute. Milo does what he always does and he doesn't overdo it, but Alyssa Milano is only a decoration and almost useless. Along with its atmosphere, the film wins in terms of its great gore that can give you a gag reflex. (13.06.2019)
