Damaged isn’t trying to be a meme, it’s playing things completely straight... That sincerity, and the apparent genuine commitment of top-tier performers like Jackson, is what makes this ripely absurd film at least half-worth watching.

Unfortunately, [the ending isn't] nearly enough compensation for the roughly 90 minutes of tedium preceding it.

“Damaged” is too efficiently handled to be dull, or even overtly bad — though viewers may find themselves rolling their eyes a bit after a while.

The murder scenes themselves are studiously grisly, though the film's overall visual style never rises above that of a TV drama.

A stacked cast can’t stop Edinburgh-set serial killer thriller "Damaged" from looking like a pound shop "Seven".

The film’s main strength is in its great Scotland location shots.

Damaged isn’t the name of the movie. It’s the state of your mind it leaves you after watching it.

Some truly awful acting....maybe Samuel & Vincent Cassel actually just wanted a working holiday in Scotland with a bit of golf to take part in this. It is like it was written with Chat GPT and automated actors using AI.

Unfortunately, I watched it all. Plot has more holes than Liza's bucket. I kept wondering if I'd dozed off and missed something important because nothing was making sense. At first I wondered if it was my poor menopausal brain glitching, but no, it really is just a pile of s***. I hope you read this review before watching it and I save you some time. Use the time to plant a tree, have a shower or even just watch some jelly wobbling because truly anything is better than watching this awful movie. (From someone who will, in future, read reviews BEFORE watching the movie) 🍿
