Soundproof

I watched this purely based on the high praise received in several reviews. I generally avoid "low budget" and I very much avoid "low budget British" as they tend to be "not very good". Gritty, real life, real people, intense type films don't really interest me. However I thought I'd be open minded and supportive (based on the reviews) and give it a go. Needless to say I'm writing this review now and (hang on)... there are still over 20 minutes to go. The 73 minutes that have gone so far could have been covered in about 10. That's how slow it is. I honestly don't care what happens to any of the people in it. If they all end up dead I think that's fine. As long as something actually happens. 18 minutes left. Nothing yet...

Watched this on the recommendation of friend and really enjoyed it - there is so much bland content created for streaming now it is almost a surprise if it's decent - and this is for sure . Very atmospheric and moody - parts of it feel a bit bad dream like . Surprised to read it was first time directors - be interested to see where they take the next one with a bit of experience under their belts.

Great cast - jo felt a very real and Kev carried an air of menace throughout . Infact I thought all the main characters were very watchable .

Nice to see a little indie movie give the big budgets a run for their money .

This is a thrilling watch, the tone of the movie is generally hard hitting and at times quite a dark and gritty drama but well balanced with humour and some beautiful locations. The intimacy and intensity of the mobile home and in-car scenes mixed with the sweeping shots of the lake and surrounding post-apocalyptic structures are a visual treat.

Above all, the casting / acting is fantastic. The raw talent and actors' abilities to uplift this film from an aesthetically pleasing flick to a thoroughly captivating indy movie, kept me on the edge of my seat.

I can't wait to see what the director and actors have in store for us next!

Looked beautiful, with beautiful performances. I am an actress and watch a lot of low budget stuff, some being very melodramatic. Although even with tense scenarios going on here, there was a real integrity to some of the performances. I also like the fact that the main female character is quite flawed. It's good to see women who aren't so stereotypical. The young girl in it has a great face and goes a good job at portraying conflicting emotions. I enjoyed the music and felt that the sex scene was really tender as well. I am really over gratuitous tits and ass shots personally and this kind of stuff shows that sex scenes can be done really well without a nipple in sight.

Totally blown away by the emotional roller coaster experienced watching this film.

I've not seen such an authentic production and acting for a very very long time... the directors and actors are bound to be snapped up by bigger budget film makers, if this is what they can produce on their own.

It seems like the makers of the film, had a super low budget.

To bring out a production like this, they have been very creative with the settings and have recruited very talented actors ...I'm sure we will see more of all involved with this film.

Watching this space, to see what else they can bring to our screens.
