A Thousand Little Cuts

It's not a great movie, it's no Ashley Judd Morgan Freeman classic from the 90s but it's ok enough to watch, the twist at the end is a bit cliché and the getting there is a bit frustrating, some of it just makes no sense ie: no development on the jogger, just a couple random instances and blam? I don't know, it was ok enough to watch, won't be recommending it like Promising Young Woman or The Hunt, which are kinda in this genre.

If this film were Romanian or French, US producers would throw tons of money at it to make an English language version in which Nicole Kidman plays the shrink. As it is, Marina Sirtis is outstanding as the psychiatrist charged with unraveling the mystery of a particularly heinous crime scene, no Kidman necessary.

A Thousand Little cuts is an absolute gem of a layered thriller that deserved far more financing than it got; hence the rating of 8- it sometimes comes off as a bit too low budget. The story and storytelling are superb. Writer/Director Joshua Brandon also inspired excellent performances. The film was a most engaging, pleasant surprise and I look forward to seeing more of Brandon's work.

Could be a good movie if there was enough and appropriate reason for the gun presence.

Why someone can be so mad at someone that he was not much interacted with, and then brought a gun.

I'm a bit confused about the IMDb rating which shows a 4.8. There are only 9 user reviews which would give this movie a lot better than the 4.8 IMO this movie is at least an 8-9. My reasoning behind this is it has a good cast and a well written script. It keeps your attention for the most part from beginning to end with some twists with a very unexpected one at this end. Watch this movie and you will understand what I'm talking about.

7.6 stars.

I thought based on multiple low reviews this would be a dud, however it's not. This is an acquired taste, and I am part of the demographic that enjoys this particular flavor. I am interested in psychotherapy and any movie that presents a trauma and the mystery of how it happened, solved through the process of therapy, explored through the lens of a traumatized woman, a police officer and a psychologist; so I'm all in!

The reason why I found this story to be entertaining is because it was presented effectively, and the actors are excellent. It's not boring, not low quality, it's a regular movie in the genre of mental health and abuse. It's told in a somewhat captivating manner and it works for me. I recommend you give it a chance. If you still enjoy it at 20 minutes, you might enjoy the whole film.
