City of Salt

The acting is rather wooden; the storyline is good. Could have been reduced by 30 minutes as the pace is quite slow. Worth a watch, but no more.

When downloading this movie from one particular site it was rated 8.4 Then I looked it up on IMDB where it was rated 7.3 Right after watching the movie and adding it to my list I noticed its rating dropped to 6.4 So in just 2 hours this movie lost 2 full points and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have reached its lowest rating. The fast dropping didn't really surprise me as there was terribly bad acting especially during the first half. Plot developments were badly introduced and lacked any sense of involvement in the story. To make the disaster complete, during the last half the plot developed so unlikely that my idea was that some amateur script writer was hired to complete an already murky story with shallow characters. See it if you have some 2 hours left on a rainy day. Otherwise skip it. You won't miss much.

Editor somehow forgot how to do his job on this movie. Yet it's truly an enjoyable flick, for sure, along with some good acting too! Scenario/story is a yarn.

Reviews must be from relatives or sponsors. No way this film warrants 5! Really wanted to like this flic. HOWEVER: no matter how poignant and awesome the story line, the message cannot be realized over the sub par acting. 1 hour 55 minutes of hoping it would get better. The cinematography and score is awesome but lost in the flaky theatrical performances. This film would be awesome had they invested in a cadre of more talented actors. Sorry, but delivery is important and the message of this film is lost waiting for actors to meet minimum muster. Actors tried too hard to appear as their roll.

Ugh what has been touted as the next best film in the ex mormon facebook group is a very disappointing film. It's sad that such an important subject matter and a decent script did not translate well via the sub par actors to the screen. The 10s here are written by cast and crew and their friends. Dont be fooled
