I was completely fooled by good reviews on that one and must say that I regret watching this movie deeply. I don't know if I'm just too hard for gore movies, or if other people are too soft for them.
This movie was 1 1/2 hour of pure weirdness that annoyed me so much. Nothing really happened. There is no bad graphic, there is no heavy gore happening and anyone saying something else is straight up lying. "Cannibal" was 90 Minutes of two gay men mingling nude the whole time, with a lot of uncomfortable heavy breathing and weird noises, while 90% of the movie were close-ups of their mouths.
The only real gore scene was so dark that you barely saw anything, besides said "cannibal" throwing up and spitting, because in the end he was not even a real cannibal and the person who wanted to be eaten was portrayed more of a sick person than said cannibal himself.
The whole story about Armin Meiwes has so much potential but in this movie the potential was wasted. I don't recommend watching this movie, especially not if you look for something shocking or gorey, and if you're interested in *this* specific story, you're way better off with watching a documentary.
