Premonições em Woodland

The 2 main characters portrayed by Harmon and Granger are believable. Set in the 80's this film shows a drug addict trying to contend with his past while escaping to a woodland fishing lodge during the off season. Its slow, building pace adds to the suspense. The beauty shots of Canada's west coast tie the story together. If you are looking for a multi-million dollar Hollywood thriller, you've got lots of other choices, but this film gets into your head...wondering - is what we see real or just in Jake's head?? Great acting. No surprise Granger won an award for his supporting role.This is a good Indie film!

The only good thing in this mess of a movie is its actors. Both Richard Harmon and Philip Granger were solid and believable. The rest is barely watchable, unfortunately. A poorly written script delivers a truly abhorrent lead character that is as interesting as a roach caught in a jar trap: you're annoyed by him and can't wait for him to drop dead; disappointing cinematography fails to capture a beautiful Canadian landscapes; and ludicrous CGI scares away even those who came to terms with all the above. 'Woodland' could be much better that it is. A huge waste of acting skills.

I liked the photography. Basically nothing new under the sun, or trees. A dude with substance abuse takes on a watchman job with a camera. He begins to soulsearch..yawn..and sees his failed future. Not sure about anything "thriller" in here but it could've been a short film instead. I agree the acting was wasted by the lead, but, hey, meloncoly is always a hoot , right! Not sure exactly the point, the message or the underlying theme here, other than a drunk or druggie should never be secluded in the wilderness with their thoughts or conscience.

I don't understand why the rating is so low for this movie. Filmed at a very beautiful place. The story is interesting enough to make it watch till the end. The ending is there with a nice twist. Your time will not be wasted.

Went into Woodland with high expectations for a thrilling, nature-inspired mystery, but I was mostly left underwhelmed. While the setting of the deep woods was beautifully shot, with some genuinely atmospheric moments, the film struggled to build any lasting suspense or depth.

The plot moved at a frustratingly slow pace, and I kept waiting for something gripping to happen that never really came. The characters felt underdeveloped, making it hard to connect with their struggles, and the storyline itself was fairly predictable. There were a few twists that tried to keep things interesting, but they felt forced and didn't do much to elevate the plot.

The main redeeming quality here was the cinematography, which captured the eeriness of the forest quite well. Unfortunately, stunning visuals alone couldn't make up for the lackluster plot and one-dimensional characters. If you're looking for an intense thriller or a compelling mystery, Woodland might leave you wanting more.
