Won Ton Baby! Audience Reviews

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
charliesbadslave82 I was excited to see that not only was this was on Frightpix but Debbie Rochon was in it. unfortunately my excitement quickly dwindled. I did not like this at all. I expected much better. Needless to say I didn't bother finishing it, and quickly chucked it from my Instant Queue. The part where she gives birth and then is holding the baby was about where I ended it. The characters who played the cops were just horrific and not in a good way. Boo. I was hoping for so much. Watch at your own risk. one at all. The gore was weak.The acting was just awful. the dialog wasn't clever. The characters were interesting at first, but they, much like the storyline, quickly went downhill. It could've been so much more. I had so much hope but when I watched it on Frightpix I was very disappointed. Don't waste your time.
artpf Former brothel owner struggles to protect her family from a parasitic twin.OK this is one twisted movie. Think blonde preggie chick who speaks with a Chinese accent.Think think cops eating poop soup.Think the original Leatherface as a doctor. Think evil baby twin with an Afro and an umbilical cord that levitates.Think laff out loud funny.Be prepared to be grossed out but unable to take your eyes off the screen.You have been warned.
D. Ceased I can't see why this is voted so highly. I have seen far better films sitting at a 2 or 3 (or even lower) on here, but this has a 6!? Impossible. By anyone's standards this is a bad movie, and the worst part is it's not even funny bad.The movie starts with Madam Won Ton seducing an Elvis impersonator, and getting pregnant by him. We cut to "the present" to the Asian restaurant owned and ran by the Won Ton family. Lily, or Little Wing, appears to be pregnant and as such causes a lot of problems. Two detectives come in trying to bust Madam Won Ton for running a brothel, but one ends up liking the Madam and offers to go on a date. Madam Won Ton takes Little Wing to the hospital, where it is revealed that she is not pregnant but has a fully grown parasitic twin. And then the movie goes full retard. They remove the baby and it looks so laughable. It's like a mix between a Cabbage Patch Kid and Franklin from Arrested Development. The Won Ton Baby kills a rat and masturbates to scat porn all while the most obnoxious, desperately trying to be funny voice over goes on and on. There's maybe two times the voice over was funny and even then it was nothing more than a chuckle. The Won Ton's leave the baby at the restaurant for the night, and it proceeds to kill one of the workers. And then continues to rape one drunk chick, kill one of the chefs while he's having pathetic sex, all the while the Won Ton children are sitting around smoking nothing (they're meant to be smoking weed, but the bong clearly has nothing in it!) They sit around acting retarded, even beyond stoned, while Madam Won Ton is on a date with Detective Duke, and the Won Ton baby kills. The two stoned Won Tons hear the baby kill and try to stop it. Madam Won Ton breaks the news to Lily (Little Wing) that her father was not Chinese, but was in fact an Elvis impersonator. She then goes on to tell her that a law passed that stopped everything carrying the King's image became outlawed and drove her father into poverty. Madam Won Ton soon after kills the baby with a vacuum cleaner and the movie ends with another woman giving birth to a similar, if not the same, creature.This movie tried so hard to be funny, but just failed on all accounts. The humor is all super low brow, poop jokes, terrible racist jokes, etc. It's humor for children that think making funny (see: stupid) noises and voices and saying random, or inappropriate things equals funny. There's a giggle here or a chuckle there, but nothing that is really funny. The effects aren't good either, there's minimal gore and it looks stupid and fake. The umbilical cord that whips around was pretty decent, I'll give them that. It's too bad the baby looks so f-ing awful. The characters have no charisma or charm, even Debbie Rochon, who I normally love, is bland here. Would not recommend.
regdyer-752-589598 This is a long awaited DVD release as far as I am concerned. I first became aware of the making of this film nearly three years ago and I must confess that I was reaching the point where I was becoming resigned to its non appearance. I was, therefore, delighted to spot that it was at long last on sale and promptly ordered a copy. During this period my expectations of a satisfactory viewing experience had built up and I was certainly not disappointed.The storyline and characters are certainly original in conception. The film is initially set in the seventies and then moves to the present day whilst the style has the feel of eighties horror. It is a time enveloping combination which proves a successful formula on this occasion. The film project hits the target dead centre on all scoreboards - writing, direction and performances - to deliver an entertaining package which maintains the viewers interest right up to the final scenes which include an over the top comic cuts style fight.The necessary pieces of background information are efficiently integrated during separate scenes within the opening twenty minutes. During this period, it becomes apparent that there are going to be touches of humour sprinkled into the weird story mixture, especially through the characters of Little Wing, played by Suzi Lorraine, whose Chinese accent is guaranteed to bring a smile to the face of viewers, and 'The King' ably impersonated by Lou Marlin Jun who also performs another lead role as Detective Hardin. His considerable acting experience is apparent especially in the scenes he shares with Debbie Rochon.The accurate assessment by the brother of Little Wing (played by Abe Tran) of her accent and sentence structuring was another smile inducing moment and served to draw further attention to the merits of this aspect of Suzi's performance. Tackling a role which involves an accent is a major challenge for an actor especially if it also involves, as in this case, the delivery of comedic elements such as the phoney Chinese accent adopted by Suzi. It is easy to lose concentration and consequently drift away from the delivery of the accent into the normal speech tone especially if the demands cover a large proportion of screen time. Fortunately, Suzi adopts a consistent accent delivery throughout as well as the desired injection of humour in appropriate places not only through her speech patterns but also via her mannerisms and body language.There are several scenes which warrant an instant re-run in order to repeat the savouring of a particular moment, eg the scene involving Debbie, Suzi and Gunnar Hansen which involves an excellent example of framing. The camera angle used with Debbie and Suzi in shot together conveniently presents the visual information required to build up the perception of their character elements. For example, Suzi's apathetic approach to a serious situation is revealed by her concentration on playing with her phone which she obviously found more important than the matter of her physical condition which was being discussed by Debbie and Gunnar. At the same time Debbie was presenting the serious side to her character. Debbie's character in this film had several facets throughout and these were ably portrayed by this versatile actress who has a proved track record for successfully tackling such roles.The initial presentation of 'Baby' in a hospital bed scene is a little gem of comedy played to perfection by all participants in the scene as is the first interaction between members of the family and 'Baby'. These brief scenes contrast sharply with the immediate and subsequent scene which introduces a disturbing aspect of Baby's character through a rapid transition from comedy to horror. The swift movement between scenes adds to the effect and provides a hint of how the potential little monster's behaviour patterns are likely to develop. Baby transforms rapidly in both physical and intelligence terms and this includes a fast maturing taste in DVD films, young ladies and cigarettes! This evolving form of Baby is utilised to maintain the viewer's attention and curiosity about what is likely to be Baby's next escapade and what new habits he is going to develop as he becomes a rampaging killer graduating from mice to humans! I sense that the ending leaves the door open for a sequel. Hopefully, this does not take another three years before a viewing opportunity will arise.
