Contrato de Risco

The good: this story is quite simple, but the excecution is really terrific, with lots of good dialogues, a vicious bad guy, great plot turns and a wicked final.

I dont understand the low rating, probably caused by the fact that this movie falls in between genres, which most people probably cant appreciate much. I can though!.

"DIG" is probably better suited for an arthouse movie audience, but I guess that the trailer attracted a popcorn loving action audience instead...which explains the many disappointing reviews.

This is more of a DRAMA than an action movie, although there are a few hardhitting violent scenes to be seen, but most of this story is about sadistic psychological MINDGAMES and what fighting for survival does to a RELATIONSHIP between a father and a handicapped daughter.

I constantly sat on the edge of my chair towards the end of this bleak and suspenseful drama.

Solid story. Solid acting. Solid suspense. Simply a really solid, hardhitting, bleak dramatic movie. Bravo!

The story: Emile Hirsch and his girlfriend (2 vicious criminals) kidnap a father and his daughter, who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Emile Hirsch forces them to start digging for him. But what is the secret that is burried deep beneath the ground?

Just watched, fun thriller while at home but I read the reviews and it sounds like the script was different and then the director did his thing. It's better than Slayers, I'll give him that but it feels like his films have the same look. Liked the concept, the antagonist, Liberato, did great. Wouldn't be surprised this film got her the killer role in the new scream. I always like going to imsdb to read how the script differed from the movie but script is not there. If anyone has it, lmk. My teacher says, "when making movies, need the stars to align, mainly director, film is their medium." A 6.

The movie is pretty tedious to be honest. It starts off kind of ok, then just goes down hill bit by bit, scene by scene. There is way way too much dialogue and I kind of feel bad for the actors because the script is pretty lame.

There are a few good scenes, but overall I barely made it to the end. And by the end you just want it to end already.

I keep wondering how scripts like this get good actors to sign on board, how do they not know how bad the script and film would turn out?

Also, the director chose this honkey tonk soundtrack instead of a score so that also doesn't work. 3/10. Thanks for the effort but it just didn't work out.

I have always enjoyed Thomas Jane I find he brings an underlying humour to his work that I like. I also don't mind Emile Hirsch.

But But But...

Oh boy does this movie seriously suck. The characters are fundamentally awful, one dimensional and dare I say it boring. The daughter, played by (who cares) literally removes pieces of your soul each time she is on screen (which is a lot).

Its mega predictable and offers nothing of interest to anything more intelligent than single cell amoebas.

I only gave it two stars because it has Thomas Jane in it.

Better to DIG yourself a hole, climb in and slowly pull the dirt over your face :)

The title of this movie should say it all. It's dirt. I run into horrible movies with great actors in them all the time but this one is so aggravating. Emile Hirsch is usually good for some entertainment but instead the produces gave him baby dialogue. He would quote baby book titles and even the characters in the books thinking he were some genius but Emile did say he only had a 4th grade education. Also, my biggest pet peeve is for someone to finally get the upper hand and he bonks the bad guy on the head then turns around and runs but he immediately gets caught. Every single time the bad guy gets up and catches them..so annoying and predictable..Bad movie, bad writing and everyone involved in this movie should be yelled at..
