one of my absolute favorites!
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
I watched this film as I am a fan of Emilie de Ravin. When I saw a clip of the film on a YouTube channel where they were interviewing Emilie I was cautious as it was the worst clip of the film (the rain scene) but when I did eventually watch it I fell in love with the opening 6 minutes instantly as I love the vibe and story. The rest of the film is well written with the ending being a slightly cryptic one. But I do love the film and have rewatched it numerous times
Anti military. anti war. and pro islam thrown in for good measure. I wouldn't be surprised is this film was funded by CAIR or the Muslim Brotherhood. On top of that it's extremely boring, and the actin is low grade amateur.
This is a so-so movie despite what the other reviewers before me would have you believe. It deals with the sensitive topic of PTSD for returned veterans in a unique way and the twist IS quite entertaining although the movie lacks strength and depth perhaps as a result of the cast and budget.I did make it through the entire film so it did keep me entertained although its length did tend to make it drag on a little where some tighter editing could have helped.Forget Hollywood special effects and high end CGI but what you will get is a simple homespun style of storytelling.Rainy Sunday afternoon with your partner next to you on the couch/sofa it's a yes, otherwise there's better movies out there for you to enjoy.
I came across this movie as a fluke. I watched the trailer on you-tube to see if it would be worth watching - it was. I watched it and the entire movie it had me wondering, it wasn't one of those movies that you could figure out within the first 10 minutes. Its a FANTASTIC movie! I would recommend to anybody. However, there was a ton of language. If you can get past that, you won't regret watching it. I would/will re-watch this movie! It's also eye opening on what soldiers deal with when coming back. This movie does it in a tasteful way. The main actor, Finn, did a fantastic job with his roll. The only thing that didn't make sense in this movie would be the ex-girlfriend. Why do we need her in it? She didn't add anything to the story line (just my two cents).
