Just so...so bad
This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
This is the first time I've written a review. I'm writing one now because what I'm seeing for reviews are way off base. The movie is very good. It keeps your attention. Ties all of the pieces together. The acting isn't the best, but it's not the worse either. It's worth your 2 hours.
The acting was immediately horrible but doable to some degree but then that ending. I just couldn't do it. The movie was supposed to be about kidnapped children but was more about the mistress being kidnapped/missing. The plot just wasn't good and if that cost an estimated $500,000 on budget, then only like $10,000 of that was put into the film.
Truly! By the end I was so involved I was very surprised at how much I enjoyed Hollow Creek. It's not a very original story (with some dumb police tropes) but writer/director/actor Giusela Moro has really done a good job of building the tension. The acting was, on the whole, pretty good - especially Moro and Burt Reynolds who, in a small yet pivotal role, had me crying. (The old lady in the courthouse was also very good.) There's a little supernatural thrown in but, for the most part, you know how it will end. This didn't deter from my enjoyment though. Kudos to Moro for creating something decent out of something somewhat banal.
I never leave reviews but this time I felt driven to. This movie was awful from beginning to end. I have no idea why I even continued to watch it. I guess at first I thought it was one of those with a slow beginning. Um NO! It was pretty terrible. Acting was awful and ending was crappy. This story line could have been done so much better. Terrible acting. I am surprised that for being a 2016 movie that it had one of those awful B rated movie feels to it.
