A Certain Kind of Silence

My first review ever; just had to do it after finishing the movie to warn people to not waste their time. Super slow - nothing really happens....ever! No explanation on why the main character acts they way she does. Throughout the movie, I kept thinking a grand finale must be ahead, something must happen, but it never did. The movie is a big fail, and a 6.1/10 score is simply unjustified. Avoid!

Cold, unrational, where the background is unknown, during the entire film, until the end.

The girl enters to a place, where the money does not count only the way of growing up a kid in a strict way to create his anger to rule the world. The really emberrassing part, when the girl believes that she really needs to serve this place and as she have become part of it. It is so strange to see her with his boyfriend, serving him.

You will be schocked at the end of the film.

A must see.

I had no high expectations while checking the score the movie had in IMDB, then I was surprised in a very good way. The movie had this weird atmosphere that can be find in similar plots, where the rich people have their own way of educating their children and one can feel the constant escalation without loosing real connection with the "normal" or at least until the half of the movie. What surprised me the most is that the story is based on real events from the recent past and linked to the rituals and believes of a religious community. Though there is no real focus on that, so until the end you do not see it so obvious. Just successful people who has their own rules and you would try to learn from them liking the lifestyle they have, especially when you are young and open, which was in my opinion the way to show how normal people can become part of the community. All the scenes are well shot, the actors are great, the accents, the lack of emotion or suppressed emotion made the great finish of the details of the movie. Current score presents the movie well underrated. 10/10 for me.

It's a heavy movie but not exactly hard to watch. Interesting and enigmatic from the first to the last second. Accurate and useful, provides a deep understanding as to how brainwashing and human degradation works. I was also surprised to find out that the movie was based on real events. Now I have to find out more about this sect called 12 Tribes.

This is a pretty weird movie, very unnerving. Not much is actually happening but everything seem so wrong. The story builds slowly, only to get weirder and even more unnerving until at the end we get at a very surprising end. The ending got eager to know more about the subject of this movie. I searched Google and found many a story on this subject. To my disgust, the subject of this movie isn't just some made up story. It's actually based on real events. This movie is a must see for everyone interested in psychological thrillers with a strong social warning. It's quite unsatisfying I just didn't manage to figure out if those real events have stopped, besides, I wonder about the exact subject of this movie: was this also part of reality?
