Confined

I give this movie all stars because it really deserves it. It's not boring as it seems, it is suspenseful and entertaining. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a thrill without gore or sexual scenes. There were scenes that were intense that makes u addicted to continue watching throughout the entire movie. I love the music and special suspense sounds that spook you a lot. I would watch it again...I would probably buy this movie!

Very worthwhile plot to watch, it is Superb, Suspenseful and predictable!

Reviewed by: Enrique Tovar -Delano, Ca. USA I proudly watched this movie on NETFLIX.

Victoria is almost your usual everybody-thinks-I'm-crazy Lifetime heroine, but puts in a better performance than most as do the rest of the cast. there's good chemistry between the husband and wife, and the daughter was a lot less snooty, as Lifetime usually dictates. their family actually seemed to truly love each other.

The dialogue and shooting style are what separate this from most of these women in jeopardy thrillers that Lifetime has cornered the market on.

And wait, what a truly suspenseful character?... Michael Hogan plays probably the creepiest neighbor ever. Good monologue about his dead dog, kind of like a Kathy Bates Misery unstable character-feel. Would've liked to see more of his character. He's the kind of actor that when he talks, you lean in and listen. All in all, Confined is a fun ride for a small budget movie. I was pleasantly surprised.

This is exactly everything you'd expect for a suspense film. Perfect plot, convincing characters, a simple set that draws you in to the connectedness of the neighborhood. The focal point of the film is centered and moves timely. You are drawn in from one moment to the next by items that gradually reveal themselves. Ominous soundtrack and imaging effects. The only thing that could have improved this film would have been more unique depth to the characters. Highly recommended for anyone who loves the suspense genre without all the gore or added drama. I found this movie on FreeVee - the Amazon sponsored app.

You know, I really thought this was going to be a BAD movie,and I watched it anyway because nothing else jumped at me, and the fact that it's based on a true story was intriguing to me. A young couple moves to a nice suburban Seattle neighborhood, and immediately weird things are abode next door. The young pretty wife gets interested in the goings on, and begins a quazi-investigation. the things that make this movie work are the understated performances, which is really hard to do, ana a strong script, story arc, and premise. Not so great: a sort of predictable ending. This easily could have been a breakout movie for this director along the lines of an M. Night Shylamon (SP?), but it narrowly misses the mark. it's worth a watch, though, but don't expect the Sixth Sense...

For certainly the leading lady doesn't. I found myself rooting for the villain. For certainly Michael Hogan gave an outstanding performance. He had me glued to every move and line he uttered. With a sensitive face and distinguished looks he was wonderful. Emma Caulfield was just awful. Hard faced, overly made up (check a close up of her heavy mascara eyes) in every scene wearing skin tight jeans and tee shirts (she has grown up daughter) and her too long straight bleached stringy hair covering her face most of the time. She was downright obnoxious in this film and I was praying someone would get rid of her. Why do all these actresses and female news people have the same look? Bleached hair, too long, straight as though they just woke up and needed to brush their hair. It's a terrible look and it's passing it on to all our younger women to copy. I can count every other female on the street looking the same and talking on a cell phone. The all American woman. Anyway, I couldn't stand Caulfield's look and acting. David James Elliott fared better and could have been better had he had a decent leading lady. Melanie Papolia as the daughter seemed more mature than her mother. Erica Carroll didn't have much to do, but it was a pleasure to watch this lady on screen.

Get rid of Caulfield. Please LMN, no more of her.
