Well worth seeing for a number of outstanding performances, brooding cinematography and score, all supporting a pacey story-line scattered with dark humour that momentarily defuses the building tensions.
This is further proof of what a British Indie film can do on on a relative shoestring.
Whilst you felt some of the sub-plots were not explored or interwoven as deeply as they might be, the ultimate impression is admiration for an Indie film punching well above its weight, that held the audience throughout and that has potential for a future cult following.
I support indie films and this is one of the best came out recently.
This was just not a great movie. It was like the UK, was like "If Hollywood can do it so can we"! Although they failed. The characters and story were interesting enough to carry you till the end but the acting was just awful! They could not even FAKE being gangsters, it was sad. I do not recommend this movie even if you have some time to kill. Also, stupid ending with none of the stories really connecting in the right way. Plus side, was there were two good twists, but that was IT!
How this has any decent reviews is beyond me. The acting is terrible, the story is terrible. It's just a mess with what seems to be everyday people pretending to be actors. Don't waste your time.
There are good indie films and then not-so-good ones. Welcome to Curiosity took on too much in its story line and was in need of a really good edit to condense and connect the inter-connected stories better. Amor Perros - the director Inarittu first film is a great example of several stories that intersect at one crucial moment, as well as his better known Traffic and 21 Grams. I thought the editing was quite spotty. This film doesn't stand up to British indie classics the 80's and 90's such as My Beautiful Launderette or Croupier, to name a few. Please watch these films, including Amores Perros (Known as Love Is a Bitch), to understand what I mean. Don't watch this film unless you have nothing better to do with your time. Some good ideas but poor script, editing and some lack-lustre acting, except for Someni.
