Sweet Virginia

The score of the film is great creates the perfect atmosphere, the performances of all the actors individually are very good and it's a very good but very short slow burn. Despite that when it all comes together the end result and overall story just doesn't feel worth it despite the majority of individual components working very well together it just came out a bit average. I doubt I'll remember having watched it in a few years time but it certainly wasn't bad. Just okay.

Sweet Virginia is a low budget indie film. The pace is slow but the film is well made and well acted. Characters should of been developed more but otherwise a good film.

I was enjoying this movie until the abrupt, unclimactic, uncreative end. So maddening! My fiance and i sat here for like 5 minutes afterwards coming up with different endings that would have been better...did the writer just give up? Was he bored too? Ugh.

This movie sure was well worth my time. A decent thriller drama, the villain in this movie did an exemplary performance, certainly award winning.

If you like slow burn thrillers that gets into your skin and makes you want to guess the next scene, this is for you.

So. They set up the characters really well. Super engaging scenes that makes you learn about all of them. They open a ton of threads about all of them in subtle, natural ways, plus relationships between some of them...

And then all ends in a few sequences in a non-climax. I honestly believe they thought they could film for more time in a two hour film, they were noticed that wasn't going to be the case, and rewrote the end so they could at least sell the movie.

Having said that, the acting and script of the good parts (2/3) of the movie was so good that I couldn't give this movie less than a six...
