Hippopotamus

I was shocked to see some really low scores for this film from users, until I read a review where they just hadn't understood and turned it off. If you're not in to slow burning thrillers this film is NOT for you!

This film gets more and more interesting as it goes along, I agree the beginning is a bit slow, but the pay off is stunning. I wish more people knew about this film so I could discuss THAT ending with them!

Sorry to seem vague but the less you know the better going in, it's totally not what you'd expect it's much better!

After seeing a scene of it on social media, I was hooked and had to watch it. The film as a whole is absolutely brilliant, although it felt more like a short film.

I'd highly recommend giving it a watch if suspense and thrillers are your type of thing.

A woman wakes to a nightmare scenario; she's hurt, kidnapped, and locked in a room, alone, and she has no memory. The man who has her walks in and announces that he will not let her go until she falls in love with him. She doesn't know what to think. How could she? As days go on she starts to piece things together a bit. Much of the storyline is absurd but just as much of it is absorbing. The cast is about as spare as they come, with only a handful of actors, but the two stars are spot-on.

Really enjoyable indie. The name threw me off but I'm glad I decided to watch. Clever story, well shot, well acted. Not for everyone doesn't mean not good. Watch with an open mind and enjoy the uniqueness of the film.

If you like your movies wrapped up nice and neat at the end so that you have a sense of closure, this is not the film for you. When I got to the end my mind was reeling so I watched it again. And again. This movie is brilliant and haunting. I loved it.
