Featured reviews
The characters were likeable enough but some of the plot I didn't like and other parts just outright not believable. Just made me mad near the end.
The movie, though, not original in the plot was more enjoyable than what these people are saying. Movies are critiqued right down to the fine details where it isn't even a movie anymore. Characters were enjoyable, the tension was superb and downright scary in comparison to other movies. Only some scenes were unrealistic. The plot boils down to a kid who doesn't know what is right and wrong, and it gets that right. You will enjoy a movie if you let it be a movie. 7/10.
Schwarze Insel (or Black Island for the English title) is a German crime/drama spiced up with a bit of mystery. You keep guessing for a while but it isn't too difficult to figure it out. Once you figure it out it's getting lesser interesting to follow. It feels also a little bit too much as a teenager movie, with a typical bad soundtrack. The acting is most of the time okay but it could have been better, especially in the strangling scenes that didn't look too convincing. In the end it's a watchable movie, just good enough for a one time viewing. I've seen worse, way worse in this genre so I'm not complaining.
This is one of those times where the movie is primarily unappealing But like usual i gave it a chance thinking it wouldn't be as bad as i thought, And to my surprise it was worse. Very boring most of the time, acting was bad, especially in the conflict scenes and plenty of Netflix unnecessary sexual scenes. Netflix clearly loves these kind of movies no matter how bad it is, (probably a fetish)
There really isn't anything to enjoy from this film.
