Decent Acting, But a Disjointed, Meandering, and Confusing Mess...

It's a shame when the supposed 'underdog' becomes someone you start to despise, or begin to have zero sympathy for. Or, the simple fact that no one is very likeable in the entire movie. OR the fact that there is absolutely NO character development or plot origins explained. It's just a sloppy film with no explanations to some very obvious and basic questions. People's moods and motivations scurry around each scene like a herd of starving hamsters trying to figure out where they're going. In order to have 'plot-twists', you really need to have a 'Plot'! It leaves TOO many questions unanswered, and that REMAIN unanswered, even before the movie is half over. The director of this 'almost' movie needs to study the best directors of all time, and even copy some of their style until he can find his own.

Pass it to some one you hate

Don't know but this kind of movie indie movies are very low budget boring useless types. Don't know if some one actually watches this kind of stuff. Invite your enemy and make him sit throughout this kind movie I am sure he will never repeat mistake of visiting you.

Rubbish.

All characters are unlikeable. Plot is senseless. Main kid is annoying as. Acting is attrocious.

Awesome Flick

This was a really awesome action flick. Kept me on my toes the whole time. Also, the look of the film was different than what I'm used to. I give it a 10 / 10.

Classic

I hope this movie blows up because it was way better than I expected.

I still am not sure what happened at the end with Jim, but I feel like it could have went either way. Let me not say too much though because I dont wanna giver spoilers here. But I would say to people that they should watch this.

Love it!

What a storyline. I'm a fan of movies that keep you guessing and Chained does not disappoint. Incredible acting had me rooting for all of the characters to win, even if that's an unlikely conclusion.

I was surprised to hear that this was an indie film, the cinematography looks big budget. I hope to see more from this producer and director. Definitely recommend it to anyone that loves a great thriller.

Pleasantly Surprised

I decided to watch this film on whim, not knowing what to expect. I was very surprised and thoroughly entertained. I have already watched it 3 times. Great movie and lots of hidden gems in there if you pay attention.

Two Words: Marlon Kazadi

The main actor who played the lead of Taylor, goes by the name of Marlon Kazadi. I give the film a 10 based off of this character and his acting alone. Kazadi has a very big bright career ahead of him. I haven't seen raw talent like that in a very long time. Cheers to the young lad.

This Director Rocks!

Titus Heckel, this is one hell of an introduction to the film world. I loved Chained. No, I don't think it was perfect. It was far from perfect, but I loved the energy and the vision, the actors, and everything else about this film. I give this a 10.

This film gave me chills. Seriously.

Wow. Seriously Wow. Great acting by all 3. Story was exciting. Visually it was beautiful but also rugged in a good way. I was moved by this film. I felt for this boy. Great performance by the boy also. Nice work everyone. Canada stand up!

Banger!!!!

This is movie is now my new jam!!!! I enjoyed the heck out of it! Taylor was a great lead character and the actor is now my new fave actor. (He's so cute too.😘) But on a serious note, this film should be in the theatres. I personally am in love with this film.

This Movie Rocked Me

All I have to say is watching this film is like getting hit by a Mack Truck (without actually getting hurt). Holy cow. One of the films that has a real affect on you after you watch it.

The young main Actor really carried this film

The young kid who played Taylor really pulled it off as the main character. Great story though. I loved this. I would recommend it.

Really Solid Action Flick

I'm giving this a 9 / 10 because it was uber entertaining. There wasn't a boring moment in this film. The acting was stellar, and I wasn't familiar with the lead but he did great! The plot was really cool. I don't know what else to say other than to watch this movie.

Thrilling and Relevant

This is an exceptional film that was engaging from start to finish. The script is well written, unique, and relevant with regards to societal expectations of men today. The male actors were solid in their performances. Leia's portrayal of young Nora was truly authentic. Her Nora came across as a confident young woman who supported and Taylor with a realistic view.

Haters are everywhere

Who gave this film a 1/10? Are you kidding me???? I literally watch films all day all the time and this is probably the best film I have seen in years. It has action and also a deeper meaning without really trying. Great film.

Interesting Ending

Very well done! What about the ending, watch with someone else and see if you both have the same opinion.

Totally Engaging Thriller.

This is an incredibly well written and performed thriller. It delves into the challenges and confusing expectations that society places on young boys and men today. The male actors all had strong performances and young Nora showed outstanding believability.

Loved It!!

I loved this movie. It made me think and wonder why these characters are the way they are. I didn't expect this film to be what it is! I wanted to know what made these characters do what they did. Also the acting by Marlon Kazadi, Aleks Paunovic, Adrian Holmes and Keia Madu was awesome. The real estate agent was also very interesting! Happy to know it's Canadian.
