Sew Torn

It was original but I didn't enjoy it; offbeat to the point of being static. Fans of intricate problem solving by way of needle and thread will love it.

I realise my reviews are not allowed to be as succinct as I would like, due to imdb's minimum length requirement...

Please ignore the following waffle that attempts to fill the remaining required characters, while acknowledging that reviews can perhaps be just as effective with fewer words. Really, I should use needle and thread contraption to type this, though I fear that may be interpretted as critique of the movie rather than placeholder.

Very original story, great acting and an exciting cinematography. Highly recommend! The Swiss scenery is just stunning. Whoever came up with the ideas of threads (an integral part of the story, but you have to see it for yourself) is one creative fellow! What would you do if you came across a drug deal gone bad? That is the main protagonist Barbara's lifechanging task. Another perk of the movie are the two female supporting characters: a middle-aged bride and a cop long past the regular retirement age. You're in for some laughs with these ones! I can't wait to see what's coming next from this creative film team!

I initially expected a concise story but the film proved to be longer due to its inclusion of an alternate ending. What makes it interesting is that it has some other endings, consequences for what she does and she says "choices, choices, choices." It shows what happens if she does it or doesn't do it. The atmosphere of the place where the film was made is very beautiful, way I see the surroundings are quite comfortable with the vibe of the environmental sounds are also comfortable to hear. The film skillfully blends elements of survival and subtle humor, achieving a well balanced tone and creative when they use impossible ideas because it may be a little illogical but yes I really like it. The casting choices for this film were highly effective, with several recognizable actors delivering performances that perfectly complemented the story. I recommend it to everyone who hasn't watched it. This is very worth spending your free time with popcorn.

I liked the film.

It was original and slightly different, which was refreshing. The story was predictable at points (most points), but I was left questioning where it was going for the first portion of the film.

Actors and actresses were all very decent, enjoyed the lead actress despite never having heard of her or seen her in film before.

The filming style of the film was nice and at times exaggerated the small/quaint town feeling. However, the lack of extras at times made it feel very eery and a bit too quiet.

Loved the ending of the film and the fact the film told several different stories.

Before reviewing this movie I just need to say something about another reviewer, curtispeace, that scored this movie with a two after only watching a couple of minutes of this movie. How can anybody take you seriously? Rating a movie you didn't event watch, why would you waste your time and most importantly our time at writing a review that will take you longer than the time you actually spent on watching the movie? It's beyond ridiculous. I will never understand why negative people have to bash something just to get attention. That said I watched the movie until the end, like I do with all the movies by the way, bad or good. The cinematography was the best thing about Sew Torn, interesting shots for the entire movie. The acting wasn't bad either. The story on the other hand has to be taken not too seriously as every scenario, there are like three, is too ridiculous for words. But it's watchable because of all the other positive things mentioned before.
