I Hate the Man in My Basement

I love a film that leaves you with questions at the end and this is full of questions and I'm ok with that. I really disliked the main character and his friends and felt sorry for the guy in the basement but that's ok too. Great performances, great story and nicely edited and directed.

This movie does have a few funny elements due to some clever writing and subtle acting moments between the leads but it is in no way a comedy. It is mostly a drama with a bit of mystery and romance. It's hard to really review this movie without any spoilers, but it does unfold organically, the acting is well done as is the cinematography. There's some very dark themes here and a heavy dose of what any one of us would do in this given situation. It can also be quite sad at certain moments. There is a little spicy language here and there but no overt violence or nudity.

Overall a very well executed enclosed film that keeps you guessing what will happen next and overall offers closure without just dropping it in your lap. It kept my attention the entire way through, just keep in mind this is far heavier on the drama and mystery than comedy or romance.

This movie hits every emotion possible. Chris Marquette plays Claude who's wife was recently murdered. The emotion is captivating and you really honestly feel his pain. Manny Montana plays Logan and I honestly started feeling sorry for him as the story unfolds. All the cast were excellent. The writing is very creative and takes you through a wide range of emotion. Very entertaining, flows well, and will capture your emotions. Definitely worth watching and refreshingly different.

I almost didnt watch this because the title alone screams "dont do it," so please excuse my surprise when i say this is a well-done movie. good performances, interesting story, some well-placed humor to not make the lead role a total creeper. the character in the basement couldve used a bit more development. the book scenes couldve gone into more detail, but its cut well enough leave a reasonable impression. worthwhile watch, or victor over low expectations? ignore the title, watch it and find out

This was a good film. Never over the top, it slowly showed the emotions of all the characters, and made for a good watch.7/10.
