Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
shoy_Miss_Murder The English language does not contain enough words to describe what a dreadful piece of garbage this film was. It was badly directed, produced, shot, acted... huh, one guy did it all (except act). What Richard Boddington did was take roughly 25 minutes of footage, chopped it up, put it back together in random sequences, and managed to steal 80 minutes of life I will never get back. And the four people who mainly made up this dreadful film need to go back to whatever acting school they graduated from and demand a full refund. My jaw just about dislocated itself from yawning, trying to just get through to the awful ending - which made absolutely no sense whatsoever. Pretty impressive though, that a film can make me wish for a nauseating, hand held found footage movie to watch instead. Bravo, Mr. Boddington.
burtwarner I relearned how to throw up as I watch movies when I rented this one. One of the best worst movies of all time. Loved it for that. This is what happens when cow dung and the human brain have dinner together and decide to disprove Einstein's Theory of Relatively by making a film about how bad you can make films.The best thing about this movie is that the people involved have realized that they should not be in the film business and that that job at McDonalds they quit to go to film school just might have been their entire life's highlight reel.Note to self. Hit hammer in face hard to knock myself out before even coming near this film ever again.On another note, I see that Miley Cyrus is now due back on Planet Earth. Got to go.
Iamthelaw99 After reading the last couple of reviews for this movie, I decided to give it a try. Much to my surprise, I should have listened to my first instinct and avoided watching it and wasting an hour and eighteen minutes of my life. The plot of this movie could have actually gone somewhere if it weren't for the two main actors. I'd be lying if I said their acting was half-decent. Their performance was nothing less than amateur and unrealistic. It did not sit well with the plot of the movie, I could not even connect their emotions to the way they spoke in every line. I've seen better actors perform on the street. Great movie title, poor performance.
childs_roger I caught this movie on the big screen in Toronto. I have to say that this was a very original movie, I've never seen a movie quite like this one before. So I give the filmmaker credit for creating some thing very unique.I think people will be tempted to rip on Dark Reprieve because of the unusual techniques that are employed here, but the production values are so good for a low budget movie it basically negates much of the negative criticism that will be thrown at this film.There is so much bloody awful low budget horror crap out there, and this movie isn't in that category at all. It is very well made.I had several theories running as I watched this, none of them close to the ending, so "they" got me. The final shot is really great, not the kind of shot you see in a low budget film.Some of the shots are very creative and an excellent example of technique over Hollywood mega fluff. There is one shot where Kate reaches for the medicine cabinet and the camera is shooting straight up from the ground, truly original.On the downside the scene where they talk about God abandoning them or some thing just killed me, why was it there? A few times the budget shows through like when they go into the kitchen. The actors at times lapse into a "lame" mode. But over all the actors came through on this, considering the tiny cast.I predict this movie will gain a following on DVD and possibly be some what of a cult hit among people that like this sort of movie.
