Audience Member Inept writing, amateurish acting and clumsy direction hamstring whatever point this movie was trying to make. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member The acting was appalling, but the concept was amazing. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Ah so I am the first to rate this!! This tale of secrecy and a history of Canada long swept under the rug is indeed a shocker to anyone who is unaware of it. Though the acting isn't Hollywood material and the story seems slow, the director/writter Philippe Spurrell had cleverly hidden clues throughout the movie by using symbolism and metaphors. This dark mystery is probably not for everyone who dislikes the acting or pace of the story or even knew about this "secret" before, but it is indeed better than some of the shit coming out today. It's worth a look. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
