Jonah

This movie is really original. It's a low budget film but it has some cool twists. The actors are good, I enjoyed Osric Chau from supernatural. It's not a perfect story and the ending is really bold, it kind of makes me think about what it all means, but it's kind of confusing. I would like to see a bit more action with this type of movie but overall it's worth watching. I rented it on apple. I think if you watch this movie just go into it with low expectations, it's indie and it's not traditional but the film does push and play with your emotions. Cool indie flick worth checking out if you like alien stuff.

I love anything with aliens so I thought I would give Jonah a watch. The film is a small movie (budget) but starts off with a great alien abduction mystery. It does have some really interesting moments. I do like the mom's performance and the kid was also great. The film doesn't give all the answers but it does give you goose bumps a couple of times. The flow of the story felt nice and it does push and pull with what you think is going to happen next. The ending does leave a bit abruptly and makes you wonder. I would like to know more about some things in the film but overall it was worth watching.

"A journalist's childhood trauma surfaces when a mother claims that her son was abducted by aliens."

Not deserving of its rating. Anyone giving this snoozefest more than one star is being extremely generous. Nothing about this film makes it worth investing 90 minutes of your life. Boring characters and bad acting ending with a ridiculous "alien" encounter. This is not even a decent made for TV movie. I can not believe a studio invested their money in the making of this film. You've been warned. Only positive thing I can say about this experience is fortunately it was free. Do not waste your time or dollars.

Total waist of time. I'm usually not one to write a review but this was honestly horrible. VERY drawn out and nothing happens the ENTIRE movie. Its not because of the fact that there's no definite answer to whether he really is being abused and whether his mom is crazy... but just simply because nothing happens. It's cheesy, hardly makes sense, no jumps, scares, or special effects or graphics...

Hardly even a plot/storyline at all!

***Entire movie= She claims he was abducted. He claims he needs to go home. The end.*** (and btw, the ending is the worst part of the entire movie, or the best depending on how you look at it...Lol)

Usually the plot will make or break a movie, this film has no plot whatsoever! It is utterly disjointed with unrelated storylines that go no where and never get connected other story elements.

The main character is a drug addicted "journalist" that investigates fringe paranormal stories and seems totally gullible right up to taking on this abduction story. He and the female lead (Margot) cross back and forth from believable to insane and both pretty much end as bizarre individuals.

The boy is an empty character who plays no role in the story albeit that he is supposedly the subject of the film.

One of those films that make NO sense, but if you say that film critics will claim it was too deep for you to understand!
