Hidden Exposure

... let it go. Which if you watch the movie will understand quite clearly and maybe even see the same way - so no pun intended. While the movie does take directions I did not expect (not all of them), it feels a bit ... well almost underwhelming. It is tough to feel really close to the characters. I do believe that your moral code will inform who you will root for more. But even then, I don't feel like you will do so with enough passion.

Funnily enough "passion" being in the German title of the movie. Also quite funny: the twist at the end, the maybe you could call it openness of the movie. Maybe you will feel you know what the ending is and what it means (for the characters) ... but likely you will feel ... weird! The ending may be too clever for its own good ... and the movies own good too ... decent and quite interesting ... but might leave you cold (no pun intended)

I had a great time watching this film. It reminded me of classic French cinema a la Michael Haneke, just in a New York setting.

The main female character played with my deepest fears regarding psycho ex girlfriends and I loved that. The viewer is left torn about whether to feel sympathetic for her or hate her for making all the wrong life choices. I have come across many girls like her, but never have I watched a movie which portrayed that type of character so well.

I didn't quite understand why the two girls fancied the guy so much, but I am still giving this movie 10 stars.

Overall, great story, cast and directing.

Highly recommended. Slow start, building parallel storylines into a thriller. The writer and director, Todd Bogin, crafted a drama most could identify with. Parallel storylines are of a ballerina returning to her calling and a boyfriend with other interests. Relationships ebb and flow. We don't know how reliable and honest they are at any point.

The great actors made us believe, kept us engrossed in the story. As the excitement built, we were discussing the possibilities amongst ourselves. We loved that the author allows us to follow his guidance but also consider choosing the ending we believe in.

Definitely worth watching.

"Hidden Exposure" takes on an engaging cinematic experience, immersing you in its thought-provoking storytelling. Under the skillful direction of Todd Bogin, I found myself captivated by the narrative, constantly pondering the unpredictable path of tension. The shocking climactic ending left me with chills.

The performances in "Hidden Exposure" were commendable, with each actor delivering solid portrayals of their characters. Their authenticity and depth added a layer of realism, drawing you deeper into the story. Cinematographer Barbie Leung's work was visually impressive, capturing pivotal moments with finesse and imbuing the film with a captivating visual allure.

Vivien Villani's score set a mysterious yet distinct tinted colorful tone to the film. It complemented the narrative, adding an additional layer of intrigue and enhancing the overall atmospheric experience.

Throughout the journey, I found myself fully immersed in its narrative world. This film provides a solid blend of drama and introspection, striking a balance between moments of tension and reflection. Highly recommended!

A crazy and tragic love relationship story line that gets you really contemplating what will happen after the end of the movie. Love how the characters develop throughout the film. Performances by Liana Liberato, Jordan Rodrigues, Rumor Willis, Richard Kind, and Stef Dawson were top notch. Well written story line. Cinematographer Barbie Leung use of lighting and colors contributed to the aura and beauty of the film. First full length film directed and written by Todd Bogin. Can't wait to see what projects he will do next. Make a bowl of popcorn and sit back and enjoy trying to figure out the ending.
