Calibre

Number 1 > The STORY may be simple (some may say predictable at some points) but it is FULL OF REALISM. It may remind you a nightmare that you once experienced and you would never want that to be true.

Number 2 > Performances are very convincing. It makes you feel that you are in the two antiheroes' shoes. And believe me it is quite uncomfortable since their positions are EXTREMELY UNPLEASANT.

Number 3 > CINEMATOGRAPHY & MOOD is perfect; full of Scottish rural scenery.

Conclusion:

I would suggest not to watch trailers or various movie scenes and not to read anything about how the story unfolds. If you like intense thriller as well as Scottish village and woods scenery, just go for it.

Engrossing film reminiscent of movie Deliverance. Well acted and well dramatized.

Worth the watch this anti hollywood movie. It's very realistic and terrifying. Low budget but high quality.

Very good but it makes you fel very uncomfortable .

One of those "men go into the woods and something terrible happens" movies that go all the way back to "Deliverance." This one is pretty good, especially given that this is I believe the director's first film. Two buddies, one alpha and the other more sensitive, are involved in a terrible accident that they then decide to cover up. The small village they're staying in gets wise and decides to deal with them vigilante style. The ending starts to get a bit contrived and you can feel the film straining a bit to deliver a finale that will shock, but the movie up to that point is taut and well acted, and it's entertainingly uncomfortable in that way movies are when you're watching protagonists dig themselves deeper and deeper into a hole they won't be able to crawl out of.
