The Grinn

I think they must of spent all their budget on a strobe machine, because it was used a lot. In places it made no sense, to the point it was unwatchable. Even from the start they are pointlessly there. Which over use ruins the effectiveness of any effect.

Like if he gets part of a memory back, it's just filled with strobes for some reason.

But, also the budget didn't seem to be used any where else. Like some of the actors were kind of okay, but overall they were all forgetable. Most of film that I did watch was also boring, and very forgetable. Super natural stuff, where???

I wish I got back the time I spent giving this a chance.

Although this is an independent lower budget movie, and you can tell it is.....the script/story is EXCELLENT and anyone with a heart will be drawn into this characters story. It is a smartly written and thoroughly engaging story full of realism, intense emotions, relationship and mental issues of young adults.

The main character, Vance, starts out to be seemingly a "good guy" who is in love but hurt,overwhelmed and frustrated with his free spirited girlfriend. The character devolves from there, until he is forced to confront the truth of his own memories.

If you enjoy thrillers,and/or smart character studies and/self exploration stories, you will be able to EASILY disregard the small things (yet I did see flashes of real acting ability with the main actor) that won't hinder your ability to see the diamond under the coal in this wonderful yet sad and intense story.

Right, my brother decided to make me watch this and I want to punch him because of it. Like I said in the title I can respect this indie film for what it is, but the story is just all over the place. I understood the twists and the ending and so on, but it was just illustrated poorly. Don't want to delve into it in huge depth, but its like the director has tried to make this overly confusing for the sake of it. It's not a spoiler, because the character had no purpose, but there was a bloke in a mask. I can only assume he is representing something, but why? There's no point.

Didn't "Grinn" once watching this awful film. It was shocking I'd genuinely rather walk a mile on Lego then watch a second of this film, do the world a favour and delete this film from ever existing and give me my 1 hour and 30 mins back please

The concept was okay. Done with better backing it could have been great. The actor playing Vance hopefully doesn't act as a full time job and has a career to fall back on. The actress playing Vera seemed very stale and unimpressive. Diana was acted possibly the best here but that doesn't mean good. The set up for the ending just seemed to drag on and this film could have been half an hour shorter and marketed as a student indy film and would have been better. The best acting comes from the baby who had no real acting skill, so it was an even playing field.
