      Carla Hay Culture Mix The mystery thriller Brut Force overcomes some of its flaws (acting and dialogue that are occasionally cringeworthy) with effective suspense and memorable characters in this movie about a journalist investigating a woman's disappearance. Jul 8, 2022 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Satisfying femme-driven indie film noir set in California's pinot noir wine territory. Rated: B Apr 28, 2022 Full Review Anton Bitel Projected Figures Eve Symingtons feature debut is a femme-driven terroir noir set in Californias sun-drenched, history-stained vineyards Apr 24, 2022 Full Review Nathaniel Muir AIPT There is a lot of promise and good in Brut Force, but it just falls short of its bigger aspirations. Sloane is a great character and the setting is unique for this this type of film. Topical but lacking impact. Apr 22, 2022 Full Review Roger Moore Movie Nation Writer-director Eve Symingtons debut feature is a solid, engrossing film noir set in Californias pinot noir terroir. Rated: 2.5/4 Apr 21, 2022 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Mistakes and moral compromises are everywhere amongst Symington’s troubled characters. Rated: 3/5 Apr 21, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

      Mike T Between the one-dimensional characters, horrible writing, casting, acting, cinematography, and plot ... all compete equally for lowering the bar as much as you possibly could. This may be the worst movie I've ever seen. Everyone involved should be ashamed of themselves. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/15/23 Full Review marie c This was easily the worst movie I have ever seen! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member We watched this movie because Rotten Tomato gave it such a good review. We were VERY disappointed with everything. Story, acting , really everything. Just awful and not worth watching. J and R Whelpley Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member A hundred?! Really?! The acting was terrible and it seemed like a "B" movie at best. The lead actress was OK but everyone else acted like they were in some small-town theater group. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member I am amazed that this badly directed, badly acted, and amateurish production got such high ratings. After paying to stream it I kept watching to see if it got better and it only got worse. I lost a lot of respect for Rotten Tomatoes and in the future will pay more attention to other rating sources. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Great film, good character arch but horrible ending, hope there's another one Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
