Worth a watch
Felt like a long episode of Are You Afraid Of The Dark
This was not a bad movie by any means but I think it greatly suffered from being underdeveloped...
It just didn't feel like there was enough meat to the story. I think they either needed to beef it up or make it a short. The foundation of the plot was a solid idea but the execution left it a little undercooked and a tad confusing.... And along with that came poor pacing. This is most certainly a slow burn that unfortunately lacked atmosphere or intrigue to sustain it.
The acting all around was good. Main three characters did an excellent job. One thing I really disliked about this movie was the music.... Like, a lot. It felt like the score to a cheesy 90s made for tv movie. It was silly, repetitive and distracting.
All in all it was moderately entertaining just a bit lack luster. I suppose I would recommend... indifferently.
Promising Idea, But Lacks Momentum To Be Great
I thought this movie had a lot of potential- good acting, great photography, and a promising storyline, however, the dialogue, score, and pacing were too low energy for me to stay fully engaged. Also, I expected more intensity and tension that this movie could have desperately used.
I dont mind a slow-burn movie, but the ending has to make it worth the wait. This fell a bit short.
[5/10]
