    Great way to spend an hour and a half.

    The Cutlass is based on a true story {I guess}. The location of the story is Trinidad and the scenery in this area is truly beautiful. A tropical rainforest along the coast. I told my Wife when the movie started. "I could easily live there". But as the story progressed, I decided maybe if the criminal element was truly like that, I might not want to start packing after all. The main players in this movie, Lisa-Bel Hirschmann and Arnold Goindhan, did a great job portraying the young girl who was kidnapped and the kidnapper. I have read some other reviews that scored this movie a 4 and a 2, don't believe it watch it for yourself it's way better than some others I've watched lately that were rated 8 and 9 by reviewers

    Adventure!

    The whole viewing experience was an adventure, beautiful landscape, a rollercoaster of emotions and an interesting juxtaposition of social perspectives. Brilliant to see this kind of talent coming out of the Caribbean!

    Way better than I expected

    This is my first movie review so it is nice to be rating a local production. This movie captured the beauty of the north-east coast of Trinidad whilst preserving the feeling of dread throughout.

    It was honestly portrayed, with a villain whose life story manages to evoke compassion despite his cruelty.

    We are all victims of our emotional scars it seems.

    Aside from some cheezy dialogue and poor acting in the opening scenes ( some clearly inexperienced actors) the movie had a good script and excellent acting.

    Really worth a watch.

    Riveting

    Not your typical thriller. The cinematography is spectacular, and the characters engaging. A must see movie!

    A cut above the rest

    A gripping story brought to life by a talented cast and crew. A must-watch for any moviegoer that's interested in a true human story.
