Don't Go

Such an antidote to today's sex, violence, bad language and CGI. If you like all of those things, don't bother with this movie. However, if you want a mysterious and emotionally-moving story, cleverly told and portrayed by actors with a convincing range of real emotions, treat yourself to this. A slowly unfolding story of tragedy, with clever metaphors interwoven into the storyline. A moving film which leaves you with a feeling of emotional involvement. Worth watching twice, as at the end of the first viewing you realise that there were a host of references and clues that you missed first time round. Thank you, Ireland, for spurning the 'popular' genre of films and giving us something thoughtful.

I just threw this movie on for some background noise and it blew me away. Was not expecting that at all. By the end of the movie I felt sad and happy and confused and fullfilled and blown away all at once.

Nicely done

7.8

Mystery movies are my favorite genre so I'm always excited when it's one of those stories with twists and turns but in this case it just fell short. The plot was much too confusing, not that original, with a slow repeating pace. The cast wasn't bad so no actor has to be blamed for the lower score. It's just the story that is not that captivating, unless maybe you lost a child yourself at one point so you can understand the despair of the father more. I can understand that people are going to like this movie but for me it was just not good enough, at least not to be remembered.

A father struggling with the death of his young daughter begins to believe he can change the past by a memory that becomes a reoccurring dream. Is it possible or is he simply losing his mind.

This film was decent. The actors played their characters with a lot of sincerity and the story was relatable. It felt a little slow at times and it would have been better with more depth invested into the individual characters and the way they interacted with one another. It's nothing that will blow you away but it was an entertaining watch.

I am not sure what to make of this film, perhaps I needed to suspend belief and believe in the characters more. Father apparently loses child and has recurring dreams about the last day although why or how the child died is not mentioned or shown. Then we have the situation where this man appears to be having a breakdown because of his grief. The premise of the story appears to question what is real and what isn't and just left me bewildered.
