Open Grave

The movie begins excellent, the actors portray a group of people who have no knowledge of where they are and how they got there; including each other. Slowly each character develops thinking they are someone they are not, intensifying into conflict. As the story unfolds, relapses in memory begin to occur, and we begin to see the true intentions of each character unfold, or as we the audience are to see happen.

The actors do a great job, the main character Copley does a great performance as I myself enjoyed his other characters especially in the movie A-TEAM, and ELYSIUM.

OVERALL - great beginning, gets a little too repetitive in the middle, and the end just seems to rush it out without really giving the plot any resolve. Be your own judge! I personally believe this movie was intended to make you just as lost as the rest of the characters... right up to the end. So if thats your cake, then go eat it up.

After quite some time of waiting for something different, for a new approach, we can finally say we have lived to see it: Open Grave!

Now, without spoiling the plot, I can't really go into too many details, therefore I'll keep this short and try to focus on the important thing: getting YOU, to watch IT! Man oh man, this one right here, on a cold night, darkness surrounding your screen, and utter complete silence, makes for one hell of a movie! You'll love it, you'll scratch your head so many times trying to figure out what exactly is going on, you might turn bald at the end of it. For some, it won't be too hard to understand what's happening, especially after around 40 minutes, but still, you'll be dying to see more!

Why would I recommend it? New way of saying the story, lovely acting, good atmosphere, perfect tension (provided by great soundtrack), and a story that reveals itself little by little. The end, will be a few minutes when you'll stay on your couch, and feed on the dying moments, as they conclude into something great.

Open Grave (not the most original name) but surely an original and complex way of telling a story.

Film quality was average and the scenes set up well. The acting starts a bit rough and ends up a bit above mediocre. Story was somewhat original, but was not presented very well. There were many unnecessary plot points and interactions that made it a bit frustrating to watch, as they didn't provide any substantial information until the end. The plot points that were necessary were explain haphazardly and were convoluted. The setup and trailer makes this seem like a SAW movie, but its quite far from it.

It's a decent film, just don't go into it with any expectations. If you can help it, the least you know about it, the better as the trailer for example will give a bit too much away.

I heard about this film because I've been a fan of Sharlto Copley since District 9. When I saw the trailer, I was extremely interested. I wanted to watch it to find out why the hell he was in a pit of dead bodies and why he didn't have any memory of how exactly he got in that situation. The plot has many little details that give you hints as to what is going on, but when I finally pieced them together, I was surprised. It keeps you guessing as to whats really going on throughout almost the entire film. I won't ruin the reveal, but I did NOT see it coming. It's a fairly interesting and original film, and I enjoyed the ride.

Not easy to describe this movie. Almost like 'The Walking Dead' meets a Whodunnit movie. Kept me entertained till the end and more original than most in this genre.
