The Playground

This story is uniquely fashioned from old tales that have been spun together into a modern day setting. As a thriller, this film was deeply engaging as it jumps from a few different character's stories into one grand finale. The primary theme in this movie is about making the right choices in life regardless of where you find yourself. Although this movie is lengthy, the pace of the story is quick and kept me entrenched until the end. The episodic feel of this movie also makes it feel kinda like a well developed Greek tragedy. I highly recommend this movie to anyone looking for a thriller that goes deeper than just suspense.

This was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Horrible acting, overly long, I got angry just watching it. Why someone would make a movie like this baffles me. Do not watch. PLEASE

I have watched many of terrible B movies. Low budget bad acting but a ton of laughs. That is not this movie it is 2 and a half hours of long drawn out torture. If they filmed someone trying to get through this film that would be more entertaining. I have been in 2 accident 8 kidney stones and 3 back surgeries. This film tops all of those for causing me emotional distress. The film "Takes" old stories about the deal with the devil and tries to spin them to modern times. I have watched films do this fantastically on a shoe string budget. This film fails at everything it tries to do while making satan our antagonist look like a misunderstood teenager. I was stuck in my chair like any normal day for me so i thought id give it a shot. Worst decision I've made in a long time save yourself don't watch this film.

Creep tone, aided by solid camera work and good score. Strong themes about free will. clocks in at nearly 2 and a half hours, coulda been a little tighter.

With all the movies out there that lack substance, I really enjoyed this movie for its unique take and spin on classic themes and storylines that will resonate with any viewer. The movie does a great job of weaving the different characters' storylines into one thrilling narrative that is full of subversive lessons, take aways and "samplings" from classic storylines.
