ReBroken

Going into this, I was hoping for an atmospheric, supernatural/ghost movie. It had been classified as a Horror movie in some forums, and being a sucker for that kind of thing I dived in. But classifying this movie is like trying to keep eels in a bucket. At it's core, it is a study in grief, loss and addiction, and for that it has a slight horror element. But the only real scary thing going on here is the all to familiar decline of a previously decent guy, through no real fault of his own {sort of} The acting is superb throughout, and the story slowly unravels its layers. It is not a movie for thrill seekers and gore hounds. It is a slow paced, thoughtful and absorbing film, and the pay off at the end is, perhaps a little predictable, but no less powerful.

I was very impressed with this film. Yes it's a small independent movie but there was so much to like and it was very well done. I thought the cast was great and the direction was solid but what I liked most of all was the story. I was unable to figure out exactly what was going on until the very end when it wraps up and wraps up nicely. It moves a little slow at times but the pacing fits the tone of the movie and I never lost interest. Best of all it has a really nice pay off if you just stay with it. The lead actor was great and of course Tobin Bell was magnificent as always. I would very much recommend this movie. 8/10.

ReBroken is a great. It's one of those things I don't think I'd want to tell you too much about, in fear of spoiling everything about it. There's definitely more than meets the eye in this film, and what really keeps the intrigue going is the editing. Tobin Bell (Saw) is also in the film, portraying a smaller, yet vital role as a mysterious homeless man on the outskirts of town. It's amazing how small his roles can sometimes be, and yet still be something that's hard to forget.

Scott Hamm plays the grieving father in this film, and it's a combination of his own performance and the repetition of the editing that really helps sell the idea of what he's personally going through. He wants out of that cycle - and therapy isn't helping. So, he's considering alternative "cures", so to speak.

Definitely check it out. I found the entire film to be a lot of fun overall.

Truly such a great film that leaves you feeling like "woah." As soon as you think you've figured it out, you realize you don't at all, but in the best way! It's an emotional and heartbreaking story that leaves you wanting to hug your loved ones. Every one in the film plays their role so well, and has you feeling every kind of emotion. I highly recommend.

I'm not usually a fan of "scary" movies, but this is not like that at all. There aren't any cheap scares or overacting, it's just enough to keep you on the edge of your seat, without going over the top.

The story, the acting, the cinematography, everything is so well done.

ReBroken tells the story of a man who is suffering grief and is spiraling out of control, and his grief counseling sessions which appear to have nefarious intentions.

I watched this movie for the same reason most people probably will- the incomparable Tobin Bell. However I left thinking why on earth would he agree to do this one? The story is cliche to no end (If I have to hear about following 'the path' one more time..) We are either in group therapy or at his home . No mention of a job or other activities to make this story feel alive. It is very psychological but not in a way that was interesting to me.

I typically don't go too hard on low budget films cause the act of getting a film made is so difficult. This site has many amazing reviews of this film. If you look they come from accounts that have either only reviewed this movie, or this movie and "the path " which also stars this movie's lead. It is deceitful and that isn't fair to dup people. Know what your getting: A cheap, cliche ridden drama with uneven acting and minimal suspense. It is a pass.
