Swing Low

I thought I'd take a risk in this film. Not heard if it and the synopsis seemed ok.

It was kinda how I expected it to to be. Pretty tame and just a tiny hint of that a rape scene may have happened..........so it didnt really set you up for the revenge as well as the I Spit on your Grave remake did. Plenty of plot holes and predictable story. Few Rambo type traps to take out the bad guys who are literally just faces and zero character. Bruce Dern makes a brief appearance. Lead actress did a great job and never overplayed it......although some expressions looked as if she was trying hard not to crack a smile all the time.....which was odd. Ha ha

The ending was just daft and intended to shock.......but failed and ultimately leaves you feeling totally unfulfilled and disappointed. Watchable but don't expect to be gripped or have much empathy or hatred for any of the massively underdeveloped characters.

Beware inbred families who get their kicks inventing sadistic methods of torture and vengeful girls who give as good as they get. Almost saved by Annabelle Dexter-Jones who doesn't milk it, she'll go on to better things I'm sure.

Anabellele's effort was excellent throughout, but the ending absolutely ruins the whole film. Terrible.

Imagine I Spit On Your Grave with some Home Alone hijinx in the wilderness going on. It's pretty much that, but more enjoyable than it sounds. Plot developments are fairly obvious. Acting and directing are a higher standard than the poster may imply. Not bad.

This movie has so many holes in it. Where did the boyfriend come from? Anna was great in it. Bruce Dern who is always fantastic has a small part in it. He saved it from dying entirely. I was going to leave earlier but hung in to see if it recovered from slow parts. I ended up feeling yuk and disappointment. I'm hoping something great comes in 2020. This movie was all over the place
