Trust

"Trust" is about life in a big city (NYC at Christmas), young marriage, and how business life comes into play. The start of this movie was a bit slow, but it picked up after a few minutes - but please don't expect any action elements. The plot revolves around young couples that want to make things work with their partner, but business trips, acquaintances, clients, friends and other temptations make a blossoming relationship difficult. Every young professional in a committed relationship will see themselves in some of the situations. I think this is an interesting movie that shows Victoria Justice in a role we may have seen before. But I was also hoping for more excitement in general and more depth in an otherwise predictable plot.

This was a one time watch. A young couple, an act of infidelity and a test of trust, with an ok cast and storyline. But you trolls need to quit it with your over top ratings of 10s for films like this as if they were up for an academy award. You people really need to cease and desist from all the reviewing shenanigans. It's really doing the "real" viewing audience a true disservice. And it simply must stop. Everyone please pay no attention to those overrated reviews. They are simply misleading.

....you need better taste in films.

There's an interesting idea behind this film but the execution is awful. The characters of Amy and Ansgar should have been recast. Not sure why they made Ansgar Irish. Either get an Irish actor or cast the character as British like the actor is!!!! He couldn't maintain his accent through the film. The actress playing Amy didn't play the part well; she was very two dimensional, and the story could have been more twisty but it was flat and flaccid.

My score of 3 is for the idea.

Here's a snippet of how bad the writing of this movie is :

"Did anything happen in Paris?"

"No"

"With full honesty, all cards out on the table"

"No, I'm not gonna answer that question"

"Well would you please answer that question?"

There's a scene where this presumably attractive Irish dude who goes by the name Ansgar fondles Brooke's thighs WITHOUT her consent and she feels uncomfortable. The very next scene they are both conversing like nothing ever happened. Minimal efforts have been put into script writing and the direction. The performances by the actors were below average. Making matters worse was the background music which had no relation to the story nor was it remarkable. The music doesn't even stop for like 10 seconds throughout the movie!

Not to mention movie is flawed. Please avoid this at all costs. 2 stars for Victoria Justice. She looks stunning throughout the movie.

Trust is a rushed movie with alright acting, except the Irish man. He kept breaking his accent constantly and I couldn't hear a word he said. Honestly, I mainly turned on Trust because of Victoria Justice, Matthew Daddario, and Katherine McNamara. Their acting was great. I did enjoy the twists and turns the movie took. But in the end, I ended up being right. I don't think the sex was needed, or the art. It all felt a little too much. Some of the story dragged and bored me. Also, the whole thing with the senator confused me. For a second I thought Owen was seeing the senator and was gay? I don't know. Overall, it was okay.
