Who Killed Cooper Dunn?

An unexpected thrill for sure. If you're looking for a good mystery / thriller this is definitely one to check out. I loved the ending and thought it was a great little film. The production value was fantastic, the actors were well cast and all delivered solid performances. This small film surprised me in that it looked bigger and more polished than most small films I've seen lately, the fact it was filmed in practical locations was refreshing. It's nice to see a film set somewhere as remote as this one seemed to be. I highly recommend this film and have added it to the list of my favorites. Nicely done film makers.

A solid thriller that does a good job keeping the audience guessing. Usually in these types of movies the viewer has a pretty good idea of the "guilty" party. This film departed from a standard formula and kept you guessing throughout with unpredictable twists and turns, where it could have easily followed the same formula often used in the genre, instead there was a creative effort to make it its own, unique version of a murder mystery.

Aside for the story, I really noticed the effort made to capture the remoteness of the location with lots of beautiful landscapes and moody camera work to perfectly accentuate and maintain the mood of the film.

This mystery was both thrilling and beautifully captured. No matter how many assumptions audiences may make throughout the story...twists and turns will keep them guessing "Who Killed Cooper Dunn" all the way to the end.

Well told and committed by the cast and crew - lead by multi-hyphenate Nino Aldi. The talent was evident and leaned into all throughout this modestly budgeted indie feature.

As a bonus: Ely, near the Minnesota Boundary Waters, was both a scenic backdrop while simultaneously defining the clear isolation for our unraveling characters.

Would recommend watching with your old lifelong friends!

I saw what looked like Knife Lake while flipping through channels (I spent 8 days & nights last summer paddle boarding a 60-70 mile loop solo through the BWCA: fishing, catching some sun, watching Rick & Morty in a dry cozy tent in the pouring rain while hitting the vape pen 😀, etc. - just a great place - a black bear swam 30 feet in front of me crossing one of the lakes in a narrow channel); The movie - absolutely awful. I couldn't watch more than about ~30 minutes. Just dumb in pretty much every way; the plot is nonsensical and the acting is atrocious. The only redeeming thing about this movie is that its a valuable reminder that I'd rather be doing something outside. I gave it a free star because I love the BWCA, but don't waste your time on this.

Literally one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The over-acting, repetitive plot points, and dramatic music will make you regret ever pressing play. I'm honestly surprised this movie is even on Showtime. It should be on a list of bad student films. Also, there's a 'twist' at the end that tries to be smart but it just adds to the B-level cheesiness of the entire production. I honestly fast forwarded about 10 minute increments at a time just to get through the whininess and whimpering that half of the script contained for these overgrown fratboys on their drunken trip into the woods. Don't do it.
