Emulsion

I like movies that make me think, movies that keep me guessing and movies that keep me talking and thinking about it for days. Emulsion did it all. Sam Heughan did an amazing job as Ronnie Maze and deftly carried the film from beginning to end. The reason I gave it 8 out of 10 was because the same, unfortunately, couldn't be said for some of the supporting cast. Maybe it was just the strength of Heughan's acting that made the others feel weak by comparison...IDK. Maybe they were just weak. Another review elsewhere mentioned the editing being choppy but I never saw this as an issue but rather lending itself to the edginess of the film. The plot was extremely unique and full of twists and turns that reminded me of some of the Hitchcock films I've seen. It's not quite a psychological thriller, not quite a mystery, not quite a love story but more than a drama. Well done and definitely worth the price of a ticket!

Absolutely stunning film written & directed by a brilliant man. Emulsions is so beautifully filmed that you leave realizing that you've finally watched a movie worthy of seeing again. I for one found the story line original & the cinematography gorgeous. If you're like me & tired of paying good money to watch another remake of an 80's/90's movie then make a point of taking yourself to see this movie. I went in to this film not knowing what to expect, my only knowledge of it being what was written on IMDb. I was both in-thralled and mesmerized by the film & captivated by the lead Sam Heughan. I would happily pay to see it again & hope that one day it will be available on DVD. Suki Singh is a genius :)

I love British mystery movies bit this one just wasn't up to snuff.

First the acting. Having seen Heughan in other venues, this month vie did nothing to challenge his talented acting skills. He seemed a little bland most of the time. At first I thought it was the bbc.co part he was , playing but even the emotional seems lacked depth. The supporting cast was on about the same level.

Second, the plot. The movie had a lot of twist and turns that left you asking more questions. Never did figure out how the guy in the restaurant figured in to the story. At first you think it's some kind of spy movie only to find out it's not.

Third, the soundtrack. The music didn't really seem to fit in with the movie at all.

I would give it two stars and that's being generous.

I really enjoyed Emulsion.

The film is edited wonderfully so that the plot gradually develops keeping the audience guessing about the circumstances of Isabella's disappearance and Ronny's frame of mind. There are a couple scenes which play out of sequence or are repeated as an extended scene which add to the richness of the story telling.

The fact that Ronny is a bit 'lost' in his own world, looks like he has traveled from the 1940/50s and has a strict routine including spending most of his time in an eerily empty concrete car park, adds to the mystery and makes for an intriguing character

The brilliantly acted characters will keep you guessing and interested, the beautifully shot scenes will keep you engaged.

This is British independent film at its best! Don't go expecting a fast paced action thriller, but go and immerse yourself in the world of Emulsion and enjoy the beauty of it.

Looking forward to seeing what Suki Singh comes up with next.

I was lucky enough to attend a screening of Emulsion a few weeks back. The film is that rarest of things: an intelligent, well made British low budget independent film.

I was very impressed with Suki Singh's slick and stylish direction - the film looks gorgeous. The story twists and turns and keeps you hooked until the very end. It reminded me of David Lynch's work in many aspects - a deep undercurrent of an unsettling mood runs throughout the film, and there are several scenes which stayed with me for several days after wards.

Great acting, great storytelling. A film well worth checking out from a filmmaker worth keeping an eye out for.
