A pregnant young girl and her partner visit his mother to tell her they are moving to Australia. When the man is killed, the mother and the partner's brother seem to want to stop the girl from leaving.

Whilst the performances and the general tone are pretty good, this is a frustrating film. The girl, despite her desperation, continues to act quite irrationally throughout the film and it is unclear whether there may be something wrong with her. The much criticised ending is ok but a bit of a let down and continues with the notion that the film isn't sticking to the rules it has set itself. Lowden and particularly Shaw are very good and conveying the horror of no one believing you plus the potential threat to your baby is very real. So some, good tense drama, but ultimately a disappointment.

I liked the main character's spirit one minute, then wanted to slap her.was hoping for a better ending but it was,what is was.

I have liked Fiona Shaw's work and thought that I would look at this picture as she was in it.

Atmospherically and acting wise, it sustained my interest. There seemed to be the elements of a good story and it kept me guessing right along as to what the final revelation might be.

When it got to the end, I just could not believe what a let down it was. The whole film led absolutely nowhere and to not have an adequate explanation to all that went before was quite devastating if not disappointing.

This film starts off okay with a fairly easy and straightforward plot. Halfway through it take a turn for the worse and the whole storyline falls about. The end of the movie is disappointing , and you begin to wonder why you spent the last hour and half watching it.

Low concept but incredibly elegant rehash of familiar territory.

From the very first moments one gets the feeling of a restrained, sinister story and it delivers. There's only so good this can be considering the story it's telling but the immense yet lonely manor house in the countryside makes a superb setting for this tale of a vulnerable person who doesn't whom she can trust and how much.

The handling of imagery and cinematography is masterful and hypnotic as we slow burn toward the darkness. At one point someone looks out the window at 90 degrees which doesn't work in context but that's just one error, it otherwise doesn't detract from the script but enriches it.

Stories like these, of obsessive traditional families can often go too far and just feel sensationalist. But every character here feels like a person and I admit I was questioning what I though was going on as we toe the line between alarm bells common paranoia.

I dare say one could say a couple of things about how we treat (pregnant) women and the mentally ill.

A creepy movie even if it isn't what you want to call a horror movie. I felt a little cheated by the end but the journey is admirable.

I loved this, not since Rosemarys baby have I enjoyed such a teaser. Is she ill or are they crazy. Not many liked the ending but I like the fact it leaves you to make up your own mind.

And nothing else worth to mention. Just a shallow, semi-thrilling plot that leads to nothing and leaves the viewer unsatisfied.

Here's another movie that had a chance to be fairly good and instead it got to its end and... lo and behold. No Ending. An extremely weak anti-climactic end and the whole cast goes home with no explanation at all about what thrilling suspenseful horror story the whole last hour and a half was supposed to be telling us. Pregnant woman's husband dies and his family steals her baby. End of story. If making saleable movies is this easy, I'm definitely in the wrong line of work.

I only give it a 2 for the mansion and the setting , the story was extremely over the top predictable and a bad predictable the acting was ok not bad just passable. The pace of the story was again just barely passable. Nothing to recommend or add that would make me even give it a go ahead and watch once. We watched it and about 20 minutes in said let's turn it off but gave it a chance and we were right at the 20 min mark!!, do not watch!!

Kindred is the best horror movie in 2020 It has a very spooky feeling and you can watch this movie over and over again and never gets boring. Tamara Lawrance roll was fantastic.in this film Overall this movie really shows what a horror movie looks like and I give it a big thumbs up and I would love to see it again.

if you love real horror movie then you must watch Kindred 10/10

I always go into movies like this with no expectation & try to see it for what it is rather than what the trailer depicts it as. I would say, for the most part, the trailer didn't disappoint. This movie was incredibly slow as far as build up goes, but the things that happen along the way leave you saying "what? How could this happen?"... because the situations and dialogue feel realistic... like it could happen! That's what I like about this film, it feels like a deep rooted horror film that we might see back when the genre started. Something like an Alfred Hitchcock film & possible(?) influence of Edgar Allen Poe seemed prevalent here... maybe I'm just saying that because of the birds in this film(lolz). But still, I think even if those two hadn't influenced the film in a direct sense, there's still nods to those artists in this film. There's nothing to unrealistic about this, it's pretty cut and dry and convincing, and that's what makes horrific. In a more thrilling sense, it has it's moments, and the trailer makes it seem more thrilling I feel but you can only tell so much from a trailer when looking back. This did exceed my expectations & halfway through the film I was like "damn, this is good". I don't wanna include any spoilers but I feel there could have been some things done different, but then again, I'm not the director or writer of this film haha. This is definitely worth a watch and it's a shame that this movie hasn't been seeing the numbers it should have. By no means is this a perfect film, but it's one of the better horror films I've seen for sure. Hopefully, at least, more people will watch this movie over time as it is relatively new.

No amount of praise-worthy performance (and there's plenty to be had here) can eclipse the simple fact that this technically competent work completely fails to escape its own narrative drudgery. The aesthetic of the production held me to the finish which, in the end, made me dislike it even more as, in hindsight, I found myself wishing it had been a genuinely obvious howler so I could have seen the signs good and early, saved myself an hour and a half and simply walked out at the start.

Loved the setting, GREAT ACTING. At first, felt like I wanted a different ending, but when I thought about it, the ending was perfect. Twisted and haunting. Depicted exactly what the writer wanted to convey. Enjoyable & suspenseful. Yes, similar to a "Get Out" theme, however, love having a female protagonist. BEAUTIFUL.

With a ending that made any kind of point this would score really well, but there's no pay off for all the great work done throughout the middle of the film.

Which can be good with the right amount of girth, but unfortunately that is what the movie lacks. The suspense is enough to keep you curious throughout, but the pay-off is just so unsatisfying it left you feeling nothing. Thomas is a catch by the way.

Pretty good movie. The acting was very good, especially with the lead character. I did feel it was very predictable though.
