Michel L I found this one very realistic. Just a few things i did not catch or understand: 1) why did ava hate her parents so much? 2) and the end, does ava survive or does she die with her boyfriend? Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/07/24 Full Review Kevan K Interesting theme, well acted, suspense without other-worldly creatures or spirits. The ending would have been predictable, and was other than a twist. Love endures and wins, with limits. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/01/23 Full Review Lynne F I don't understand all the hate for this movie. I liked it quite a bit. I mean, it's not going to win awards, but the story was solid and mostly plausible. I thought the acting across the board was pretty good too, especially the characters of Ava and Jasper Boone. Max, Jake, Kelly, also very good. Even side characters like the bartender, roadblock military guy (idk what you call him), and the other militants were good. No, there wasn't enough time to explore the childhood trauma that led to the family tension, but I don't really need to know the details to understand the emotion there (physical, emotional, sexual). It was also interesting to see how people could potentially devolve relatively quickly in this scenario. What I didn't like and wish was explained more fully… 1) what happened to her mom?, and 2) was she sick at the end? Because drawing Kelly in for a "happy" ending then seems unlikely. I really expected her to throw out her arms and say "NO! Stay away. I have so much to say/explain but you need to stay away…". I would have loved the story to end right there so I could image that interaction, those emotions, then ultimately if she lived or died what would happen to them. And Jake. Jake is out there somewhere questioning his life decisions. Yet I still want to know where he lands. Anyway, it was enjoyable and I'll recommend it to friends as a pretty decent watch.

Assisti na Prime, acelerando, e mesmo assim continuei entediado. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member The writer didn't know what she was doing. Instead of writing full story lines, characters just disappeared out of no where. The entire story was about her childhood trauma and they never once told us what that was. It appeared like they just filmed with no idea what the next scene was going to be. Unfortunately, would never recommend Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review barbara m This was one of the worst movies of the year. Very slow for an action film and did not have an ending. Why is it that most movies sent to cable from 2020 have terrible endings.
