Restless

I was skeptical about this one but based on the reviews I decided to give it a try. I have found that most anything rated above a 6 on IMDB is worth a watch. Not always, but most times.

This was very entertaining. I really felt the lead characters frustration with the situation as she was reaching her breaking point. She was trying everything to get the obnoxious noisy neighbor to tone it down, to no avail. I found myself wondering what she would try next.

The ending was excellent. It's a twist you won't see coming but it is delicious!

Definitely a strong 8.

Restless is a decent thriller film .The biggest positive was lyndsay m performance,she's just outstanding in the film. The sound design is very good and the screenplay is well written except the last 15 min which is the climax .I found the climax really disappointing ,after all the build up and the tone the film generated,climax is utterly bad and the film sinks there .overall for the first 1 hr you can definitely give it a try if you are a thriller film lover .As I mentioned the performance of lyndsay m itself makes it a great watch .Direction by jed heart is very good and background score adds to it.

The movie has some decent potential, but there's just not enough depth beyond the initial concept.

It starts out strong, then just sort of drags in the middle and tapers off with somewhat satisfying, but also a cop out resolution, and a cringe-worthy ending.

Imo the movie would've benefitted if it leaned more heavily into the dark and gritty, ominous atmosphere it had in the beginning.

It's also advertised as a thriller, but I'd say, apart from a couple of scenes, it's more anxious/angsty than thrilling.

I don't regret watching it, but it's not something I could see myself ever coming back to.

Many of us have been there. Dealing with a noisy neighbor or two. Really good movie, entertaining, and not long and drawn out like so many movies tend to be nowadays.

I enjoyed it as more black comedy than drama/thriller. And you'll feel so bad for this poor woman. There's a couple of scenes where she goes out of her way to get a night of sleep that's both sad and kinda funny.

The movie moved crisply for me and I recommend it.

The piece handles a nightmare of so many. You get a miserable neighbour that ruins your life by just being an absolute bell end.

While the portrayal of disturbance and gradation works well, with occasional artsy depictions of the main characters turning more and more mad, I can't help it but leave the cinema thinking: Wait, what?

The plot stays fairly flat, and you hardly develop deeper emotions beyond basic sympathies. Acting is good, but suffers from a simple script. Audio, especially during phone calls, tends to be a bit poor, so I had to unusually lean and focus so I hear what's said. Importantly, the somewhat predictable unidimensionality of the characters, places and events is only disturbed by good camera and some suspense. That's not good enough, I'm afraid.

If you find the description of plot interesting and suffer from an off-season poor choice of films like me, maybe go for it. But personally, it's a film I won't remember I've watched when I wake up tomorrow.
