Big Sky

Thorne is agoraphobic. Sedgwick is her shady mom. Their trip. Is interrupted by brothers going after something forgettable. Then Thorne crawls around in the desert seeing things and meeting a weird dude. Then it ends.

I am forever a sucker for movies set in the wide open expanse of the American west. This penchant is what sucked me into seeing the low budget dramatic thriller "Big Sky".

Now admittedly I don't know what severe agoraphobia looks like. But I imagine that Bella Thorne does a pretty damn good job of depicting how this insidious psychological affliction debilitates and paralyzes those who can not bear interaction with the outside world. And Kyra Sedgwick as her less-than-model yet loving mom and the consummate acting pro is first-rate despite being rendered incapacitated early on in the proceedings. There's your propers, kids. The rest of "Big Sky" is so implausible, inexplicable or just downright impossible it loses it's way pretty quickly, never to regain any true traction.

Make it a big whiff on "Big Sky".

I wanted so badly to like this movie. I read nothing but bad things but said, screw it people have awful taste and it sounds like a thriller. I am currently watching this movie ( about 20 min left) and I'm SO BORED I can barely stand it. 😞 I don't mind the acting, honestly it was just OK, especially with some big names. People definitely didn't understand a few of the psychological/emotional things that were creatively expressed in the movie which I especially found promising in the beginning when I saw a few of them. But still, the lack of literally any emotional or psychological "oomph" in this movie made me want to switch to another one at several points (and I definitely would have if I wasn't on a time crunch) I wanted to prove 'em wrong... This one proved them right

The storyline is great, and had potential to be great the whole way through. Unfortunately there's more film, than there is story. For some reason someone decided to spend too much time defining the characters. All that did was create on again, off again, moments of intensity and boredom. All the same, if you're a Kara Sedgwick and/or a Bella Thome fan, this would still be worth watching on a cold rainy day when you want to curl up on the couch with a blanket and bowl of popcorn.

She never disappoints. Although this is a slow film..,it's worth watching. Don't expect much.
