Finally, if you are a Connoisseur of art and the unconventional, this movie is for you!
Not a bad film, "entertaining" in the sense of sitting back and watching an episode of Bones or CSI. It has more development and higher production values, I guess, than television, but really it is a routine film until the end. The last 20 minutes is where you are thankful for spending an hour and half watching the development of a OK film become very good. This is a lot better than watching a 2 hour and 20 minute film shine in its last 20 minutes. Short and worthy.
More than worth a watch.
A movie that doesn't follow Hollywood 'formula' can be very good. But this movie was a hit with a couple of misses. And yes, I understand part of the appeal is a great plot twist, but so what. I require strong plot humor and a "good deal of action" - all 3.
In the third act the film amps up with some really nice action scenes that made me feel cheated I did not see this in the films earlier acts.
They had two bad guys, both great, but I needed more understanding of how they were connected. Fortunately I could easily discount that and stay engaged without a bother to the strong story punch at the end.
I like movies that are entertaining on face value, and have a subtext and/or character arc that allow you to think and see some value and depth to the movie. Legend of Darkhorse County has it; I just would like a few more gun shots and action scenes to keep me involved to what already was a strong story with more than believable acting.
This movie was OK entertaining at face value until the end then it became something more or significant than just entertainment. When it was over I was thinking back trying to figure out some hidden meanings, or something I have missed and then found on both a religious and sociological splendor - part of the fun.
I just have to say everyone and anyone that likes indie films they should see it. Sorry about all the gushing on demanding for more action, that is just me.
This movie is undoubtedly not for everyone.
Make an Indie version of "Taken" with less action and and a better plot twist (easy to do) and that is what you are in for - still a good watch
This is a movie review so it's best not to get into opinions here, although it isn't easy with such a delicate, tragic and controversial topic as young kids getting high jacked.
What I will say is that there are two sides to every story and not to believe that evil is always bad. I recommend considering this concept to be the strong point of the movie before forming a concrete opinion overall of this film.
The movie itself is average. It has the look and feel of a well made TV movie. The subject matter is very complex and obviously dumbed down a little for the audience.
I must admit that I was impressed with the casting.
Good casting. Average production. A few nice shots.
Overall, if you are looking for a fresh look on Good vs Evil, this one not that bad at all.
