Long Lost

My wife and I sat down to watch this movie recently. I had previously prefaced the evening's entertainment by telling her to be prepared for a very good, scary thriller. It was neither. The character, Seth, has to be one of the wussiest roles seen in recent, if not so recent memory. If people think this movie is scary and thrilling then they should never watch The Exorcist or Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) to name just two that could cause them cardiac arrest.

This movie is dreck. Slooooooooow, annoying main male character, and this twist ending I saw coming and even if I hadn't it would not be the "Surprise" that some reviewers make it out. It does nothing to make the movie any better. I recommend you pass on this. It's just stupid.

Not sure why theres so many 9 & 10 ratings bc sorry this film doesnt rate that. It is quite frustrating bc it does draw you in w hopes of a great payoff which doesnt come. It was slow but the story interestingly weird enough to keep you watching...waiting...and waiting....and waiting some more. Oh and for all those comments about it being "sexual" or a "sexual thriller"? Seriously? It is not. One scene in the whole film "implies" a threesome but nothing ever happens and the most skin you see is the chick in a bikini. I watched through to the end, you will too probably but you will likely feel let down. So my advice, go in with zero expectations then you might not feel so bad at the end. Overall I gave it a 4 bc it was shot well, the acting was decent for the most part and though the story was bizzare, it could have had more uuhhmph with a payoff.

The acting was great and everyone fit their roles perfectly. The movie was a bit slow at times but never lost my attention and i'd watch it again.

Obviously the high ratings for this movie are fake.

The story drags itself along like a dog with no back legs, and in the end it just doesn't cut it as a movie worth watching.

There are no particular highs or lows - nothing to get the viewer excited or really engaged, with the same drama between the characters happening time and again until the end - which is so weak it is ridiculous.

Better spending your time watching something else.
