Run Rabbit Run

What a disappointment. A good premise and an interesting first act that leads nowhere. A film that constantly revolves around the same thing, wrapped in a web that it can't unravel, becoming repetitive, unengaging, and predictable. Grief, trauma and a sense of guilt are big themes here and they proportionate some good scenes, but it becomes too much of the same, not justifying its duration at all.

Sarah Snook tries to swim against the tide, but even she becomes tiresome, having to go in circles in this story. To top it off, an ending that doesn't reward us for anything at all. This should have been good.

'Run Rabbit Run' is everything I hate in a horror film. An unrealistic story, that isn't scary or horrifying in any way and features extremely annoying characters that are impossible to care for. This was a tough watch for all the wrong reasons.

The film has no point. It has no reason for the audience to be invested. There are no stakes. You could say we are supposed to be curious about the explanation to what is going on, but the film isn't exactly subtle. We have the gist of what is happening, we just need some minor details filled in. It isn't enough.

But if you're in the mood for 100 minutes of a mother and daughter screaming at each other then this might just be the film for you. However, if you're like me and that sounds like the worst thing in the world, then chances are you'll detest watching this one as much as I did. 3/10.

What a waste of talent. It's just a silly stupid movie. It was definitely not horrifying, it was just in bad taste. There is a difference. I don't for a minute believe Elizabeth Moss was ever going to make this movie. I think they used that to snooker Sarah Snook into doing the movie and shame on them. I'm sure she was probably also enticed by it being made in her homeland and she was expecting a baby, I think, about that time or just had a baby so there was a lot going on as well as wrapping up "Succession". Anyway I look forward to her future work in worthy pieces.

Be smart. Don't get suckered into lesser works.

While the premise may not have been anything groundbreaking as it resembles films and themes we've seen before, Sarah Snook delivers a sensational and captivating performance that is well worth it. An absolute joy to watch and definitely an actor to keep your eye on in the years to come as she continues to prove herself as one of the most talented actors of her generation. The cinematography is another strong point in this film with Australia playing an impressive part in the mise-en-scene. And hats off to the young Lily LaTorre for her eerie and dedicated performance. It may not be as fast paced of a film as a lot of moviegoers hope for but it offers ample space for the nuanced performances by our two leads.

The writers tried to commingle supernatural elements with psychological thriller elements, in what ended up being a terrible sequence of events. Ultimately I found the story flat and nondescript. With a different set of hands, I think this movie could have been fulfilling and exciting.

Sarah Snook delivers a good, but perhaps unmemorable performance as the troubled mother. It got annoying to hear her shout "Mia!" every five minutes and to see her scold, physically hurt, and discipline her daughter.

Any scenes with Joan or Denise were unsubstantial. Also Mia's drawings added nothing of horror to this picture. It's a rudimentary Netflix-produced movie with a poor script and unexplained symbolism.
