What Keeps You Alive

Your average revenge thriller, with a few good twist and turns, drug on a little but the imagery and pay off at the end more than takes care of it so more than worth it.

Well, I didn't hate this. I also didn't love it. It was entertaining enough to watch through to the end, but I strongly agree with what others said in the sense that there are several moments where you say, "literally nobody would do that, " or, "yeah.... that's impossible. "

I guess I appreciate the idea of this movie and how it didn't take too long to get to the action. I just think this would have been better suited as a Lifetime movie than a Netflix original.

I actually enjoyed this film. Loads of tense moments and fun. But it so stupid. So many plot holes, so many stupid decisions. So many time you say to yourself "that just wouldn't happen"

Acting solid. Score good. Some good experimental shots from the director. Just the sheer frustrating stupidity takes what could be a great horror film into a bit of a mess.

I hate when people post "boring" as their review because it's usually for some fascinating slowburn well told story. I just cant think of any other title more on the nose for this film. This film just doesn't sparkle. Brittany allens heroine is supposed to have some sort of complex personality but its not ever shown or hinted at so she makes these kind bizarre painfully plot driven decisions that make you cringe. The big reveal of the film happens in the first couple minutes and so the rest of the movie is a sort of slow cat and mouse game but neither the cat nor the mouse are particularly interesting. The villains motivation is just so drab. Its a shame I think a couple more scenes spent digesting the character portraits could have made this more watchable instead I was just thankful went it ended.

I dont know what all if these people watch that are hyper critical of this film. Because it is not boring in the least. Sure there was the typical irrational and ridiculous actions taken by the protagonists and yes you had to suspend reality at points. This isnt a high art film. But it was very entertaining. The actors did a decent job very suspenseful. Compared to the majority of films that come out I found this to be well made, acted, and written. I'm giving it an 8 because of that and it held my attention and kept me interested. The victim at the end makes an absurd decision but hey, it's a movie not a film.
