Follow

Follow (2015) is about a man who receives a strange Christmas present from his partner, and wakes up to find his whole life crumbling apart. This film had an intriguing concept, but other than that, there's not much to say about it. It just felt rather low effort.

The movies score was pretty odd, but for the most part the film was very quiet and there was a lack of music or sound in general. Also, I found the audio mixing to be poor and the audio just sounded wrong.

There wasn't really any cinematography that I liked and I really wish the filmmakers experimented a bit more with it. There was a lot of opportunities for nice colour palettes and some experimental shots.

The acting was okay, there wasn't really any bad performances and there weren't any good ones. I think this is due to the characters being written poorly and lacking overall substance and development. I didn't care for any of them.

There were actually a couple of scary moments, and it got pretty disturbing near the end which caught me off guard. It's a shame most of the movie wasn't like this because these moments showed potential.

The tone was set very strangely, and made no attempt to be gripping in any way, resulting in the film feeling very dull. It was definitely a slow-burn, but not in a good way as there wasn't much else to it. It was immediately hard to pay attention to, and wasn't tense at all. It was structured somewhat messily, but I did like the flashbacks that added some context. Unfortunately, the ending was lacklustre and not satisfying.

Either follow or anything else for that matter. Seriously though, I guess if you like weird and completely out of anything, you may be able to "enjoy" this to a certain degree. But overall we are talking about a movie that has almost no saving merit in it. And that's with one of the main guys from Deadgirl. Which was also a very weird movie to say the least, but way more intriguing than this one.

Very despicable characters and some really disturbing ideas. Now some of the latter are nicely woven into the whole thing, but it overall feels like you're being punished by having to watch this. Of course you don't actually have to watch it. But when I start watching a movie, I also tend to do so until the end ... no matter what

Another to add to the list of movies with hardly any scares, minimal story, poor acting and just boredom to the nth degree!

As years go on the movies being put out seem to have zero story, no thought or imagination and just terminal boredom. Is this really the future of movies? No wonder Helen Mirren said that the Cinema would be dead in less than 10 years if this is the ordure we are supposed to endure.

This was surprisingly good. Tense, misterious, with a good soundtrack, smartly shot and great acting.

I think the first act is the best one, the 2nd is the weakest, but it still delivers during that time. Metaphorically is also a very interesting film.

If you like films that are not run of the mill...you know the type, groups of people, no phone signal, lost, etc etc then you might like this. Whilst the story was in parts kinda poor there were bits that were good and quite humerus, or was it just me that found it amusing? Anyway, as always it was slow start and a bit confusing as to what actually happened. It came good or at least I feel it did. The acting was good and the story was accessible in the main.

Overall I definitely enjoyed this movie and would perhaps watch it again. Maybe I am just weird! Check it out....you never know what you might find!
