This isn't going to be a film that everyone is going to be pleased with. So, if you are considering it, go into it with an open mind and understanding that it's not for everyone.

Let me start by saying that I wouldn't consider this to be a "horror" film. It had suspense, weird and fantastical aspects but it just didn't cross over into horror for me. However, if you are a horror lightweight, the situation may cross the line into horror for you.

The camera work and acting was great. The setting was beautiful, well suited due to it's isolation and it is so well shot that it created a lonely, longing atmosphere that had me investing in the growing happiness this couple found despite how weird it was. Let me just say that after seeing her in several movies I have found Noomi Rapace to be a rather skilled actress. She plays these darker rolls quite well so I was pleased with her performance.

Some people have complained about the CGI but for the most part, I thought it was pretty good. Not perfect but definitely not awful.

Overall, the story was, as I said, unique. There are a lot of questions left. So many that they could play around with the idea of a sequel if they wanted to. Leaving questions unanswered is what has me still thinking about it though.

I say check it out. It was an experience.

Lamb is a suspenseful and artistic film that showcases some great performances. I loved its beautiful cinematography and stunning colour palette. I also found it's themes of parenthood, loss and isolation interesting. At times, I wondered if the makers were commenting on real-world issues such as The Stolen Generation of Indigenous children in Australia.

But, as interesting as the concept was, the storyline just felt a little thin and not enough happened over the 90 minutes. Also, I don't think this film has been categorised correctly. There are a couple of violent scenes, but Lamb doesn't really qualify as a horror in my opinion. Instead, I'd describe it as a 'folk drama'.

I wouldn't categorize Lamb as a horror movie, more a mystery drama. In my case I figured out the "mystery" from almost the beginning but still it's worth a watch. It's not fast paced, but it's well filmed and the acting is more than decent. Strange to hear Noomi Rapace speaking Icelandic for the first time in a movie. Strange is also the plot, a bit weird but that doesn't mean bad. It's probably not going to be to everyone's taste but if you have an open mind and like something different you might enjoy this one.
