Rachel Wagner rachelsreviews.net I love supporting small filmmakers with potential and that's what you have here Rated: 6/10 Jan 20, 2024 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Appealing neo-noir, whodunit. Rated: B Dec 14, 2023 Full Review Joel Fisher Battle Royale With Cheese Fans of the noir genre will have fun with Silent as The Grave as they spot the usual cliches and tropes brought right up to date. However, even those with a passing knowledge will see the potential of a genre perhaps long forgotten to cinema. Nov 27, 2023 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com This is truly an ensemble dependent film and the ensemble is strong. Rated: 3.0/4.0 Nov 19, 2023 Full Review Alan Ng Film Threat There’s a great deal of fun in the cast of characters Chris winds up interviewing throughout Silent as the Grave. Who can he trust? What is being hidden from him? Can he handle uncovering the truth? Can he keep his marriage intact? What about his sanity? Rated: 7/10 Oct 25, 2023 Full Review Ronak Kotecha ronakkotecha.wordpress.com Here is a moderately effective mystery movie, deliberately paced and conveyed with refreshing subtlety.

Audrey W Good looking cast, well shot, another Indie Rights classic. Delivers stronger than most indy's I've seen lately. Intense drama and I particularly liked the graphics they used in titles etc. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/24/24 Full Review Philip C Rotten. This is like watching a college project. The cinematography is good, but the plot is sketchy. The wife is a totally unbelievable character. The henchmen are both laughable and sinister, not a believable combo. The dialogue is woeful. Some of the acting is excruciatingly bad, and I feel sorry for the better actors caught up in this project. No way should anything this bad had a 100% fresh rating! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/18/24 Full Review Joe C I liked watching the unfolding of this captivating story, which had moments of suspense. It's fascinating that it's based on a true story. Besides the detective-like plot, the film also had a heartwarming aspect with good family dynamics. The acting performances were enjoyable, and I particularly liked the actress who played Barb. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/24 Full Review G P With a continual host of films constantly flowing into the market place it's sometimes difficult to determine if a film is worth viewing. At one time if a film caught you attention and engaged you in the storyline to the very end that was considered a "Good Movie". If you could relate to the actors and empathize with them, that was considered a "Good Movie". If you were surprised at the ending, that was considered a "Good Movie". Need I say more. This is a "Good Movie". Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/05/24 Full Review Catherine C This was an interesting watch! Loved the modern mystery aspect with a family history spin. Had a lot of suspense, I was pulled in for sure! I particularly liked some of the older actors who really gave this film some flare. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/24 Full Review Mark C Enjoyable noirish-tinged feature about an aspiring documentary filmmaker caught up in a murder mystery.
