Robert Levin Newsday There's enough plot for about 30 or 45 minutes, stretched to feature film length. Rated: 1.5/4 Nov 19, 2024 Full Review Jacob Oller AV Club Held and George’s film twists and turns, but charting their narrative swamp is a simple and unrewarding exercise. Rated: C- Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com It helps to have a pair of leads who commit to the immediacy of their characters, never winking at the camera like lesser performers would with a script that’s this fundamentally insane. Rated: 3/4 Oct 11, 2024 Full Review Jorge Loser Espinof ... A satisfying puzzle in which you could point out what is happening and still have doubts. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Nov 15, 2024 Full Review Wade Major FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It's way overcomplicated. It ultimately pays it all off, but it takes real investment. Nov 4, 2024 Full Review Marya E. Gates Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack) A film you should feel with your heart, because time, like love and family, is not always logical.

ADi x Film z cyklu "podróże w czasie". Im dalej, tym ciekawiej się robi. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/11/24 Full Review Tiva B Everything you’d expect with an Shyamalan movie. I love Dylan O’Brien & as always he did an amazing job. The little puzzle pieces just fall into place & bam you feel like a detective who’s just solved the case. Another movie to add to my favorites list. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/11/24 Full Review Melvin L Utter nonsense and a waste of time Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review Audience Member SHYAMALAN LIEBT SCHEINBAR NETFLIX Ellies 8. Jährige Halbschwester Anna wird vermisst, das gesamte Dorf ist auf den Booten und sucht den Caddo Lake ab. Währenddessen versucht Paris herauszufinden wieso seine Mutter wirklich vor Jahren sterben musste. Beiden ist zu diesem Zeitpunkt nicht klar, daß im Caddo Lake ein Geheimnis verborgen ist, das das Schicksal nicht nur ihrer Leben auf ewig verändern wird. Caddo Lake geht ca. 103 Minuten und ist ab 12 Jahren freigegeben. Wir haben hier einen Mysterie-Thriller rund um eine Familie die Anna sucht und sich Ellie tief in den Caddo Lake dafür begibt, sowie Paris der Nachforschungen zur Krankheit seiner Mutter durchführt. Ich mochte was sich heraus entspinnte, allerdings mag ich auch die Thematik und aus Spoiler Gründen kann ich da leider nicht weiter drauf eingehen, weil sonst das, ahhhhja, flöten gehen würde. Die Charaktere mochte ich überwiegend, Ellie am meisten da sie für mich am komplexesten war, schwieriges Elternhaus, selbstständig und dennoch Vorbild ihrer kleinen Halbschwester. Paris hingegen ist recht flach, er trauert größtenteils wegen seiner Mutti und ist der Alles-ist-meine-Schuld Typ. Die Story legt bereits früh kleine Brotkrumen, die zu Beginn noch recht willkürlich und unnötig wirken, doch mit zunehmender Dauer löst sich das Rätsel und fügt, fast alles, zusammen. Denn auch wenn man jeden Faden zusammenfügen will, bleibt für mich Paris die große unbekannte, da ein wichtiger Abschnitt, für mich zumindest, bei der Erklärung fehlt. Am Ende bleibt ein Streifen der mir gefiel weil ich die Thematik mag, die Charaktere überwiegend überzeugen und die Handlung ein schönes Mysterium ist ohne zu viel zu erklären. Von mir bekommt der Film 7/10 Punkten. Als das Mysterium gelüftet wurde, sah ich im Kino bereits die Handys angehen weil einige damit nichts anfangen konnten. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review Desiree B Was really amazed the first time I realized the twist. So incredible story. It's absoluely a must-see movie. Hoping for part two! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review Dan R This year's 'Caddo Lake' is, for me, one of the best surprise hits of the year. SYNOPSIS: 'When an 8-year-old girl disappears on Caddo Lake, a series of past deaths and disappearances begin to link together, altering a broken family's history.' This twisted M. Night Shyamalan produced mystery thrives in the presence of its lead actors who drive the story along with passion and determination. On the surface 'Caddo Lake' is a story of family grief and loss, but scratch below the surface and this film is so much more. So much more important. Any film which involves a form of time travel can become complicated and lost in its own science, but there's something quite charming here, something special. The twist is both charming and harrowing. 'Caddo Lake' is a thrilling, exciting, intriguing, surprising, and exhilarating movie. The multiple twists and turns will keep you fully engaged as the lead actors put the puzzle pieces together. An exceptional film with an emotional core. 9/10 Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/03/24 Full Review Read all reviews
