Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

This was great change of pace for Lundgren, a great thriller!. Now don't get me wrong i LOVE Dolph's action films but it was cool to see him do something different, and this is just what the doctor ordered!. It's very suspenseful and engaging, plus Dolph gives a wonderful performance!. A lot of people found this movie dull and boring, i whole heartedly disagree it was engrossing from start to finish, and was quite creepy at times, plus, there were some great plot twists!. The ending was rather surprising, and all the characters were cool, plus, it's unpredictable throughout. This is a great thriller, that i highly recommend to everyone, give it a chance, a great change of pace for Lundgren. The Direction is very good. Anthony Hickox, does a very good job here, creating creepy atmosphere, kept suspenseful at all times, some neat shots, and keeping the film at an engrossing pace. There is a little bit of blood. We get quite a few extremely gory corpses,, very gory photos, bloody cuts and slices,harsh bloody beatings, and a few bloody stabbings, fairly dry. The Acting is excellent!, Dolph Lundgren is AMAZING as always, and gives one of his best performances here, he is very likable, vulnerable, kicked that ass, had great chemistry with Danielle Brett, and was extremely convincing as the boozer, he is always tons of fun to watch! (Lundgren Rules!). Danielle Brett, is beautiful and was excellent here, she is very convincing, likable, had great chemistry with Lundgren and i felt for her character. Richard Fitzpatrick, is good here with what he has to do, i also loved the scenes with him and Lundgren.Kristi Angus was hot, and very sexy, but that's all she had to do really. Kylie Bax is also very sexy and does fine. Overall i highly recommend this thriller! definitely check it out!. ***1/2 out of 5

In how many ways can a person tell another to avoid a film?This mess of a movie, is all to easy to decipher. If you can't figure out who the real murderess is fifteen minutes into this stinker, than you should be monkey-stompedThe plot centers on Matt Sorenson(Lundgren), a burnt out ex-police officer drunk, how about that tired Hollywood cliché, who searches for the killer of his kinky-sex addicted brother.Dolph slaps around everyone that he comes into contact with, from the numerous hoodlums to his only pal on the police force. Why the hell he slaps around his only buddy is beyond me, maybe its to build his character, but for what purpose?Plenty of leather uniforms and toys that I hope to never see in my bedroom.

As a general rule I don't like martial arts movies and especially don't like Dolph Lundgren. But this isn't his typical fare and altho he still doesn't come off as an actor this film has a sort of interesting plot and our Dolph isn't the all powerful superhero.He is an alcoholic ex-cop who has gotten involved in tracing what may be a serial killer for reasons of his own and almost displays some semblance of humanity. I say almost because although he tries our hero still has a lot of work to do, but this film is tolerable for the late nite audience.

Jill the Ripper is Dolph Lundgren's best performance and is unlike any of his other movies. The movie is set in the 1970's and Dolph plays an ex-cop and boxer (Matt Sorenson) whose brother is killed during some kinky sex act. Matt delves into the world of S&M trying to find his brother's killer. This movie was filmed very well. You should see it for the setting and lighting if not for the actual story. Also, the DVD version contains a very interesting director's commentary from the film's director, Anthony Hickox. All of the actors turned in pretty good performances. There are some problems with the movie, the editing is not very well done and it leaves you wondering what is motivating the characters' behaviour, and several of the characters go by 2 or 3 different names which is confusing. Also, you know who the killer is pretty much from the beginning. But overall this is good movie. Some people might say its boring, I say its taking its time; Dolph's character is actually trying to develop. If you want an action Dolph flick where he kills everyone and flexes his muscles, DON'T watch this movie, watch Red Scorpion or Universal Soldier instead. If you want a semi-suspenseful horror flick (and to see Dolph tied up and hanging upside down almost naked during a bizarre sex act) watch this movie. My suggestion is to watch it at least twice. I actually hated it the first time I saw it. I don't know what made me watch it again, but the second time is the charm. Perhaps I was paying more attention the second time.
