Time Now

I can't complain about the acting. It's just way to slow, waiting and waiting for something to happen. Could have spend an hour and a half in a better way like cutting my toe nails!

This is a movie that I got the chance to see from a screener. It is an interesting look at a family that has lost two sons. Jenny (Eleanor Lambert) is the 'oldest' of triplets. I get the feeling one of her brothers killed themselves and the other died in a car accident. We see this family dealing with grief.

I do hate to say though, this movie is boring. The movie doesn't do well in making me love the family. Lambert's performance is fine. The boy who plays her son is cute. Aunt Joan is one of the best to me.

This is a movie about decisions and it doesn't do well in making me spark the connection I need for this. It just doesn't come together like they wanted to me.

My Rating: 4.5 out of 10.

I can't say it's the worst film I've ever seen but it's closer to that then the best. What surprises me is the amount of 10/10 ratings and many reviewers saying how suspenseful and good it was.

In all honesty it was super slow, I can equate it to a vast slug slithering across a motorway and watching it to see if it makes it or not. No real mystery, and one that Morse or even the clumsy Columbo could solve in a minute or two. I gave it a fair 2 star rating, and that was generous.

Suspenseful, if you give it the chance. It's not as much a thriller, but I felt connected to the characters and strung along as the lead digs herself deeper into a crevice she's in. It's not perfect, but it's a good character study with a smart ending. I recommend it!

Read about the film in the Detroit Free Press and decided to give it a watch as I'm from the city. It takes a bit to get going though the new faces and unique representation of Detroit puts this in its own lane. Claudia Black is especially great - she has a real charisma that jumps off the screen and comes at times when it's really needed with everyone else dealing with grief. Very cool and refreshing to see a story about Detroit that feels authentic.
