To me the movie felt like it was trying to elevate itself past something like Hostel or Saw by having a "deeper meaning," but failed because said "deeper meaning" is just kludged onto a pretty typical torture porn script without any thought of the lack of logic behind it. Pretty good movie, but the script could have used quite a bit of work in my opinion.

After digesting it for what it was i agree. If they really wanted it to be about martyrdom they could has used some of the half hour or so of torture to dwell on it. Kinda seemed like they thought of it mid way throught the movie and just implemented it in. I think it could have been alot better if they actullay went fully with that idea instead of just briefly.
