First movie I have ever cried to!
The character development was beautiful! I understand the main character very well and also relate to the main character. I like the way everything slowly revealed itself in a nice burn. It very nicely portrays the way the main character is going insane through his hallucinations. The acting was on point, I could see the wonderful display of emotions layed out for us. Thank you for giving us such wonderful views. The cinematography was beautiful!!! I'd love to see more movies that are as wonderful as this one was! I know it was likely really cold while filming, so it must have token a bit to make along with covid being in the way. Anyways, wonderful job! Keep at the good work!
A decent film, not very engaging
This is not a bad movie. Great acting, interesting story and character development. Nice cinematography and music score. Mostly good script.
But the story telling is disjointed. Things that shouldn't have been disclosed are disclosed too early. Parts of the story that should have been made known are told way too late.
Without giving any details away, this is in the vein of a school shooter movie. It is set right around the columbine tragedy.
The human relationships are portrayed very well in this film. But the way in which it is done is not remarkable - the family dynamics are not believable as portrayed.
Slow burn, not terrible story. But impossible to decipher a story arc.
