Big Sky

I wanted so badly to like this movie. I read nothing but bad things but said, screw it people have awful taste and it sounds like a thriller. I am currently watching this movie ( about 20 min left) and I'm SO BORED I can barely stand it. 😞 I don't mind the acting, honestly it was just OK, especially with some big names. People definitely didn't understand a few of the psychological/emotional things that were creatively expressed in the movie which I especially found promising in the beginning when I saw a few of them. But still, the lack of literally any emotional or psychological "oomph" in this movie made me want to switch to another one at several points (and I definitely would have if I wasn't on a time crunch) I wanted to prove 'em wrong... This one proved them right

She never disappoints. Although this is a slow film..,it's worth watching. Don't expect much.

The storyline is great, and had potential to be great the whole way through. Unfortunately there's more film, than there is story. For some reason someone decided to spend too much time defining the characters. All that did was create on again, off again, moments of intensity and boredom. All the same, if you're a Kara Sedgwick and/or a Bella Thome fan, this would still be worth watching on a cold rainy day when you want to curl up on the couch with a blanket and bowl of popcorn.

Thorne is agoraphobic. Sedgwick is her shady mom. Their trip. Is interrupted by brothers going after something forgettable. Then Thorne crawls around in the desert seeing things and meeting a weird dude. Then it ends.

Big Sky offers a premise with plenty of potential, centering on a story that could have delivered gripping tension and emotional depth. While the idea itself is engaging, the film suffers from a sluggish pace that makes it harder to stay invested in the unfolding events. Some scenes felt unnecessarily drawn out, causing the suspense to lose its edge. Despite this, the narrative remains interesting enough to keep watching, and the underlying concept is solid. With a tighter pace, it could have been much more impactful.
