Beyond the Night

This movie is kind of weird but not in a good way. The story is perfectly fine and I actually was invested in it at certain points. It's not bad, which is always what a director loves to hear, but it did feel like sucking on a brown paper bag at points.

The competent actors are bland and it's partially from amateurish performances but also just poor writing. Everything looks really clean so you kind of forget you're watching this unknown film until you zone out and have to keep re-winding.

Azhy Robertson, the kid in this movie was probably someone who impressed me the most. That's more of a complaint than anything though.

You know what, it's fine, I didn't like it, maybe you will. I'm not going to try and peel apart this average film for 20 minutes. They wrote a story, executed it well and it just happens to be a pretty bland story. That really could have been the whole review. There's nothing that stood out to me from a writing, directorial or production standpoint so it is what it is.

U. S. Marine Ray Marrow (Zane Holtz) returns home after the death of his wife in a car accident. His young son Lawrence has a facial disfigurement. He brings them back to their home town to bury his wife. His sister Caroline Marrow (Tammy Blanchard) is the local sheriff. For some reason, Lawrence seems to have knowledge of a local missing cold case.

I like the premise which holds some potential. The acting is fine for the most part. Mostly, the movie never gets to the level of my expectations. I do like the beginning and as it reveals the premise. Maybe I was hoping to be more invested in an investigation.

Well this was a decent low budget (i guess) film, with lots of original twists a sidetracks. it bears the marks of logistical flaws, because every day of filming cost a stash of green ones.so the sun are up,and as the cam angle changes it is dusk and soforth. the story are good, and the acting are ok...just a little stiff here and there, so i think i will recommend this mysterydrama thriller,yes, and seven stars it is worth

Checked this out the other night. Turned out to be pretty good. Everything was pretty decent. Acting and the story is solid throughout the film.

If you are just looking for a random movie to put on late at night, I'd recommend this, a one time watch for sure.

Although the story is predictable but it's still interesting , give it a shot...You will not be boring , acting is also good and very natural.
