Malevolent O. I loved this film, despite some of the absurd impracticalities. Starts a little slow, but then takes off. There are some predictable moments, and impossible situations, but the acting was great. The music was good. Loved that it was female oriented, and showed strong women. I enjoyed it thoroughly. There are some plot holes, but they don’t completely undermine the film's core sense of fear. Allen delivers a compelling and relatable performance as Jules. Her confusion in this dire situation evokes sympathy, and her resolve to fight back against her killer inspires us to root for her next move. The film ultimately supports its survivor, even as it subjects her to intense challenges first. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/03/25 Full Review Gabriel T Apart from some logical problems in the plot, "What Keeps You Alive" is a really solid movie and you should try it out to see for yourself. It could be psychological and gory at the same time and the couple's charisma was the cherry on top of the cake Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/13/25 Full Review Alain E The first thirty minutes develop well with nice acting and cinematography. A loving married lesbian couple visit a vacation home by a lake belonging to the family of one of the girls. The next day that girl suddenly throws her partner down a cliff. The technical aspects remain good but the story takes a turn for the absurd. The fallen girl initially doesn’t move but then it does. Either she is alive or a zombie and sadly, I will never find out. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/01/25 Full Review Adrian A Remarkably unintelligent. Tropey. Feels like a high budget film student final project. A thriller with a main character with no survival instinct, making every wrong decision. An ending that made me groan. I try to just shut up and eat my popcorn when I can, but when a screenplay is this bad, it's hard to ignore all the flaws. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/12/25 Full Review Orlando C I went into this movie with great trepidation. Based on the audience reviews, there seemed to be a character decision so egregious that it ruined the film for many. I have seen these types of movies before with the one dumb decision and it's usually 50/50 for me whether the foible ruins it for me or not. So going in to this one, it was going to be a coin toss. When I came across that nonsensical decision (you'll instantly know it when you see it), I almost turned the movie off. However, the movie had built up such good will, I felt, as a viewer, I owed it to see it through. And let me also just say, in all fairness, there is zero chance the character makes that decision in any kind of universe/dimension - zero. But this a movie, and that being said, I looked past it, and found the movie to be enthralling, tense, smart and captivating. I would strongly suggest, when you see that incomprehensible plot twist, remember how good the rest of the movie was leading up to it (as well as the rest of the movie after that point) and you'll find that this was a great film.
