My House

Yup it's slow. Was struggling not to fall asleep during the movie.

I loved Mirren Mack in Sex Education and she does a fine job in this too. But there are flaws in that she doesn't know what the Internet is, yet managed to perfect using a mobile phone in no time at all.

The movie is almost100% filmed on a home camera, which is a pain.

Its difficult to find anything good about the film, other than Mirren Mack, plays her part well.

I wouldn't say don't watch this slow moving drama but I wouldn't go out my way to see it.

Just remember it's slow from start to finish but if that's your thing, give it a go.

First of all the acting was surprisingly very good. I'm looking forward to seeing what Mirren Mack (the actress who player Carla) has in store in future films. The Dad (his name escapes me!) was very good also. It was also fun to see Michelle Collins starring.

I've read through some of the reviews here to see why the rating is what it is, and I get what many people are saying, but personally I really enjoyed it. I liked how it was recorded, it was something different for me. Was it a great film? No, not in my opinion. Was it a good film? Absolutely! If you're into thrillers, you'll likely enjoy it also.

Really, really enjoyed this - excellent low-fi production that makes an asset out of its budgetary constraints. This is a taut thriller that grips throughout, maintaining the tension and then sticking the landing via a series of third act twists. Solid cast - particularly Mirren Mack (from the excellent Sex Education) as Carla, who is very convincing in a complex part - and good pacing kept me intrigued, invested and guessing throughout. Really enjoyed the score and clever use of handheld and security camera footage to build atmosphere - the intensity was maintained throughout. Highly recommended.

It was ok ! I would not recommend it to anyone .

Unfortunately i could not stop focusing on the inconsistencies.. hills and valleys throughout Very rushed at the end .

What i found bizzare was anyone who is starved and locked up for a week would not look as good as she lookesd when meeting her supposed mum , she looked decent , when only 5 minutes before she was dying.

The Estate agent was sporadic and then no show for ages , then just seemed to pop up at the end at the right time , same with her real mum. Felt gimmicky, i actually laughed .

On a positive note the girl was a very good actress, dad played his part well ,

This film had me guessing the whole way through! I loved Carla's character and right from the outset I was instantly hooked on her plight, routing for her at every twist and turn. We were running through the hallways right with her, not knowing who to trust. The acting was superb and I thought the script was brilliantly written. I thought the surveillance cameras were a great touch and worked well to increase the overall tension. The ending was really moving, especially as Carla took control which had me cheering in my seat. Don did a great job at flipping from caring father to unhinged and unpredictable. Really enjoyed it! Definitely would recommend!
