Somewhere Quiet

This is not a horror movie or a thriller. It is almost 2 hrs of the most boring stuff ever! The main character is spaced out the whole movie, along with her husband. I kept looking for chances to fast forward in the movie. I still don't know the point of this whole movie it's like OK she went through something traumatic. She can't tell reality from what she's imagining and neither can the audience. This movie should not have been labeled a horror. This movie was a waste of my time. It's one of those movies that you wish you can get your time back. It's like a Netflix movie that you take your chances on and it's a dud.

I found this on Hulu and thought it sounded good, but that wasn't the case. It was just ... okay. The acting was great but the story and execution of the film (editing for co tent) were sometimes a slog, I almost stopped watching in the beginning as I was bored, and other times confusing, which I get is the point, but there is never any clarity. There is no clear cut answer in the end. This is a definite art house movie, but not gratifying in my humble opinion. It's really a shame as the performances were beautiful, nuanced, and compelling. I was hoping for more, and an ending that wasn't so lackluster.

I felt a bit emotionally exhausted after watching this one, so you know that means something in and of itself. This is a slow burn psychological horror/thriller about trust, trauma and discerning what is reality and what isn't.

Some people are going to find this boring, but I couldn't unglue my eyes from the screen. It was so captivating and atmospheric in the strangest way. There was something about this one that felt very unique and special.

The acting here was pretty stellar all around. The husband had some cringe moments when upset/crying but I think it was supposed to come across as ingenuine. But truly, our three leads here did a really great job.

This is not the most fulfilling movie as far as story goes, so be forewarned that you might feel a little... wanting at the end. There isn't a whole lot of background explained and is left pretty open ended. I would have loved a little more explanation/closure but I understand that wasn't really the point here. But yet also the point because she didn't know what was going on either haha. There was just a lot left up in the air... but it also added to the confusion and atmosphere.

I feel like if there was just a little more to the story it would have easily tipped over into the 7's but regardless this was a really solid watch that I would definitely recommend.

An absolute waste of 2 hours. Nothing is resolved and the entire movie makes zero sense nor is any part of the plot explained. It's basically 2 hours of a guy sighing and the main character having random dreams that have nothing to do with the story. Avoid at all costs unless you like watching movies where you are constantly fast forwarding because the scenes are drug out so long where nothing happens. This movie should never have been made. This is even worse than the Netflix movies. I would rate this travesty zero stars if I could but even that would be too many. I feel dumber for having watched this and I award you no points.

It's a rather simple story along the lines of Gaslight. Or is it? Mwah-hahaha. You'll get the idea. And then again you won't because there are so many little things that are just left unexplained.

Like the whole cousins thing. And the fishing dude. And the roadkill. The bed lady. Who dun the thing that caused the issue to begins with? Why was the dog named Minnow? The game of Charades and the dinnerware connection. And pretty much everything. To the point where you won't know up from down.

But I suppose that is the point.

Of course the entire time you will be looking at the lead actoring guy (whose fake real world name is Kentucker Audley - yes, he's a pretentious mumblecore filmmaker) and you will be thinking "hey, that's not Logan Marshall Green - who is also not Tom Hardy".

And now this was something somewhat different that has been watched by me.
