Lanier

This movie was was very difficult to watch. It lacked a realistic plot, was not scary, funny, romantic, informative or even entertaining. The characters were not likeable at all. They were mostly irritating negative stereotypes. The acting was very poor and it was hard to follow who the characters were and what motivated them. It was very unrealistic and bordered on comical. I'm not sure how this got funded but from the production value it probably didn't cost much. This movie was about an hour and ten minutes and my teenage daughter said it looked like it took an hour and a half to produce from a cell phone. I feel like I got ripped off paying for this. The positive reviews have to be almost entirely fake.

The horrible acting and extremely low budget might have been a non-factor had this film made any legitimate attempt to incorporate the history of Oscarville and Lake Lanier but it fell more than short.

Don't waste your time or your $5.99. The entire movie felt like a couple of families taking vacation on the lake got drunk and decided to make an impromptu movie while they were there. If someone told me the screenplay was written on a napkin at 3AM in a Waffle House, I wouldn't be surprised.

I typically appreciate low budget and B movies, but I honestly cannot find a single redeeming quality about this waste of cinematic space.

I'm a huge horror/ Suspense movie person!

I loved that they captured the history of lake Lanier BUT I was really bored at the beginning, it started to get good and then BAM it ended... I felt they could have done a lot more. I know it's a lower budget movie. But how it ended and how fast made me go...WHAT?! I was a bit upset by that ending..

Other than it ending right when it started to get good, It was a good movie. I would tell people this and still recommend it.

Everyone has their own opinions though.

P.s 1,100 people were violently forced out in 1912, due to a " racial cleansing ". Soon, the town was flooded, to make lake lanier. For the memory of Oscarville, and the people who lived there.

I was kind of excited to watch it being I've read a lot on the history of the lake. I'm all for history but the racial card being constantly crammed down my throat didn't help at all. I thought this was about the Lady of the Lake. The

It was horrible. Even though I only wasted $5.99 on renting it, I'm glad that was all.

Take my advice, do not waste the few dollars, or the amount of time of your life you'll never get back. Do something constructive with that time, such as anything besides watching this. If you enjoy the most horrible ending in screen play ever, this is your film.

I enjoyed typing this more than watching it.

The synopsis for this 2023 thriller from writers and directors William Eric Anderson and Cindy Estenfanie Kunz-Anderson definitely sounded interesting enough to make me sit down and watch it. Well, the fact that it was a movie that I hadn't already seen definitely also played a part in my decision to watch it.

The storyline in the movie was not a particularly entertaining one, nor a thrilling one either. And with "Lanier" being a thriller, it was a swing and a miss from the writers. I have to say that when the movie ended I didn't really see that there was an actual point to the storyline, and that made watching this movie feel like a massive waste of my time.

I was not familiar with a single actress or actor on the cast list, which is something that I actually enjoy whenever I sit down to watch a movie. The acting performances in "Lanier" were good.

"Lanier" is not a movie that makes use of any particular special effects. Not that special effects would have spruced up the movie, as the storyline was so boring and pointless.

The movie's cover was actually the best thing about the ordeal.

If you enjoy a proper thriller, don't waste your time, money and effort on "Lanier". Some of us suffered through this boring ordeal, so you don't have to; you're very welcome.

My rating of writers and directors William Eric Anderson and Cindy Estenfanie Kunz-Andersons' 2023 thriller "Lanier" lands on a two out of ten stars.
