No te sueltes

Never let go is an intriguing, mentally draining psychological horror that quickly hooks you with a central question: is Halle Berry's character losing her mind, or is there something more sinister at play? It's a slow burn where you constantly have to guess what is real and what isn't. The premise is interesting, and for the most part, it keeps you engaged.

The biggest problem I had with the movie, however, would have to be the third act. Prepared to question all that's throughout, it feels like there wasn't much resolution at the very end. It doesn't have the closure I was looking for; instead, it just leaves us with more questions. Some people like that mystery, but for me, it was just the slightest bit more explanation or one additional scene needed to help wrap up things nicely.

That said, it's still worth watching, if not for any other reason than for those who love a good slow burn, psychologically thrilling plot. Just be prepared for an ending that may not be as satisfactory of a wrap-up as it could be.

How far would a mother go to protect her kids? Here's another psychological thriller for your viewing pleasure. NEVER LET GO is about a mother (Halle Berry) and her two sons Nolan (Percy Daggs IV) and Sam (Anthony B. Jenkins). They live in a cabin in the woods, separated from a now dead world. There is an evil presence around them, and they only way to be safe in to be tied to a rope that's connected to the foundation of the house. This poses many questions: What the hell happened? Why can only the mom see the evil? What happens if the evil touches you? Is this a subtle metaphor for COVID? Is it even real? I like how when the audience has these questions, the kids also have questions. This movie kept me guessing for the majority of the time. The acting is great for everybody. The atmosphere is dense and feels claustrophobic. Apparently, it was filmed right here in the woods of Vancouver, BC. The story could've gone a few different ways, and I would've chosen something different. The jump-scares are annoying, but I enjoyed the scares that came from the background of shots. With so many movies coming out this season, this one could be seen at home all cuddled up with a blanket and some snacks. Remember, don't listen to Elsa from FROZEN, and NEVER LET GO.

Never Let Go had the potential to be a good movie but it has flaws what brought the ratings down. I think most of the people, myself included, were not happy with the ending which was open to interpretation. I like clear endings, no nonsense, not have to think about what was real and what not, and in this movie there are questions unanswered which is a pity to be honest because for the rest it wasn't bad. Good acting from Halle Berry and from the two kids Percy Daggs IV and Anthony B. Jenkins. As for the horror there are not much of those scenes but the ones that were there were interesting and well made. The movie is good enough to watch once.

On paper, a decent concept, visually gripping but thats pretty much where it ends.

Hallie Berry plays a great part as 'Mamma' with her 2 young loyal sons living in a her shadow as she pretects them from the unknown her has lost all reality.

The run down house that plays the safe haven and backdrop of the movie is almost a character in the moving playing a part in the story arc, the looming dense forest is daunting.... But for everything else?

Young boys to give credit put in great performances, they mesh well with Hallie, and its beautifully short for all artistic feels but its a story that has a very disappointing cliff hanger, save your money.

Alexandre Aya's "Never Let Go" is a serviceable horror film that offers a familiar blend of jump scares and haunted house tropes. While it doesn't break new ground, it delivers a solid performance from Halle Berry and a few tense moments.

The film is about a family trapped in their home, besieged by a mysterious, malevolent force. While the film does a decent job of building suspense and creating a claustrophobic atmosphere, it ultimately falls short of delivering anything truly original or terrifying.

Halle Berry delivers a solid performance as the determined mother, but the film's real strength lies in its depiction of the growing tension between the family members. The boys' fear and doubt slowly erode the trust and unity that once held them together, creating a palpable sense of dread.

Unfortunately, the film's pacing is a bit uneven, with some sequences feeling drawn-out and others moving too quickly. The climax, while tense, feels somewhat predictable and lacks the emotional impact it should.
