The Dentist Rezensionen & Wertungen
- DARTH VADER8. Januar 2026My main issues that I have with The Dentist, is that I found it really lame, lazy & basic, on the motive behind what made him snap! I just thought it was very weak and uncreative, they could have given more of a reason into why he went the way that he did, instead of it having to do with his wife cheating on him! Why not have put him through a life changing traumatic event, where he's normal and happy in the beginning and something really bad happens, that makes him slowly descend into madness, it would have been that much more powerful and effective if they had gone that way with it and would have made it a lot more interesting. Another really big issue I had was that, they really didn't capitalise on the title of the movie, because most people have a phobia of Dentists it's a well known fact, so why not take full advantage of that and make this a really disturbing and a thought provoking film, with gnarly creative kills with all of his victims! With them all being Dentist related kills to make us the audience, be scared to ever go into a Dentist room ever again! Like for example what Jaws did for swimming this could have done the same with people, not ever wanting to go to a Dentist ever again and I thought they really dropped the ball with it, in that aspect as well. Corbin Bernsen was great in this, he's a big positive but ultimately everything surrounding him wasn't done and executed anywhere near it's potential and this movie could have been so much better, in terms of concept, motive and making us all afraid to go and see a Dentist ever again. Finally I thought the ending and ultimately how he was caught was very uneventful, lazy & disappointing.
- David Telford17. August 2025Such sharp horror and gently leans into a little comedy to ease the brutal facts that are so unfound in life i did love that movie 🍿🎥
- Kevin Ward2. Juli 2025Corbin Bernsen plays a dentist that discovers that it’s actually the pool boy who’s been filling his wife’s cavities. 👉🏼👌🏼😬, and he sets out to extract revenge on her and all of his patients. Didn’t care for the story much, but have to admit that the mouth violence (particularly the sounds of it) were pretty great. Bernsen’s dentist is just crazy AF, though, and there’s apparently nothing Detective Low Rents Fishburne can do about it. At least, girl got her braces off. That’s a great feeling.
