Demise

Prepare yourself for two hours of non-stop drama and suspense! This modern noir thriller has a plot twist around every corner. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen, constantly on the edge of my seat, wondering what would happen next. The film's gripping narrative will leave you thinking about it long after the credits roll. The cinematography is stunning, creating a visually captivating experience. Liz Fenning delivers an incredible performance, bringing depth and intensity to her character. Writer/Director Lowe clearly has a flair for the dramatic, showcasing her talent in every scene. I can't wait to see what she comes up with for her next project!

Great film! Sexy, hilarious, twisted, and jaw dropping. I loved how the characters were believable, realistic, and even relatable Angelenos vs. Botoxed-out and expressionless. More of the European style in that regard. Fun to see all the cameos. I've recommended it to several friends. I don't watch a while lot of TV and most of the films watch are historical epics or documentaries. Or what my kids are watching. I truly enjoyed watching Demise.

Looking forward to finding out how Celine's character develops and what transpires between the new character. Would love to see Caleb show a little more Latino cultural values that are typical in these types of men in LA.

What I loved most about this film was how it evoked memories of one of my all-time favorites, "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle." Writer and director Yara Estrada Lowe masterfully blends elements of suspense and psychological intrigue, crafting a modern-day, more seductive thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat. With its captivating storyline and intense performances, this movie promises an unforgettable cinematic experience that's perfect for a thrilling night in with your significant other. Even better, the movie grows on you with each viewing, revealing new layers and nuances that make it even more compelling the second or third time around.

This movie offers a truly fantastic storyline, packed with imaginative twists and turns that keep you guessing throughout. The plot is both creative and original, making it a standout in its genre. While the film is compelling, I believe the runtime could have been trimmed slightly to maintain a tighter pace, which would have enhanced the overall experience. Additionally, a bit more focus on character development-particularly exploring the motivations of one of the main characters earlier on-could have added an extra layer of depth to the story.

The acting, for the most part, was a highlight, with several strong performances that brought the characters to life. However, the portrayal of the wife felt a little over the top at times, which momentarily pulled me out of the movie's otherwise immersive atmosphere. Even so, the film as a whole delivered an entertaining and memorable journey, showcasing a creative approach to storytelling that deserves recognition.

An absolute disaster from start to finish. This movie is a walking cliché, stuffed with every overused plot twist you could possibly imagine - and somehow still manages to be painfully predictable. The acting? If wooden planks could talk, they would have delivered more emotion. Every scene feels like a bad parody of a better film, and the dialogue is so flat it could put a cup of coffee to sleep. Watching this was not just a waste of time; it was a direct assault on my patience and common sense. I wouldn't recommend this to my worst enemy. If you value your time, run in the opposite direction.
