Swing Low

I almost didn't my watch this due to the the bad reviews bar the other reviewer who gave it a 6 which was enough to make me give it a go. People giving it 1-3 out of 10 have obviously never seen some of the absolute garbage that exists out there. I have watched my fair share of everything from the absolute worst B-Movies that you can't watch after 5mins they are that atrocious to some of the slickest sickest flicks ever made.

Cinematography - Excellent!! I wasn't sure at first about the camera angles but once you get in to the movie it all works and looks good.

Actors - they all play their parts well (maybe not the police interviewer at the start, that almost made me switch off as I though HERE WE GO another 5mins in and it's off movie) but the key actors play their roles perfectly. The lead actor plays a blinder, she's excellent.

Soundtrack and Score - perfectly blend the scenes and set the scene. Sounded amazing through my Dolby Atmos system.

Deaths - some actual originality in there with some oldies but goodies. Not going too heavy on the gore just enough to make the point.

I actually liked the way they didn't show everything. This is usually annoying but they've made the right decisions about what to show and what to let your imagination fill in the blanks for.

Ending - very happy with the ending. Not your typical ending, but it's original and leaves you feeling a little bit violated.

Hats off to the director and everyone who worked on the movie. Very well executed movie that has been done before but hasn't everything? They put their own spin on it and made a great wee movie to sit and watch with a couple of cold beers.

Watch it like I did with low expectations due to all the other reviews and be pleasantly surprised but how much better it is than they would have you believe.

This could have been a really good movie. It's a "I spit on your grave" type of movie, well acted and good story with interesting subject matter BUT the ending ruins everything. I was so angry and totally disappointed at this stupid, blunt ending. Don't waste your time.

Imagine I Spit On Your Grave with some Home Alone hijinx in the wilderness going on. It's pretty much that, but more enjoyable than it sounds. Plot developments are fairly obvious. Acting and directing are a higher standard than the poster may imply. Not bad.

Ruined by the ending......twits. Action scene after action scene followed by a failed ending.

I thought I'd take a risk in this film. Not heard if it and the synopsis seemed ok.

It was kinda how I expected it to to be. Pretty tame and just a tiny hint of that a rape scene may have happened..........so it didnt really set you up for the revenge as well as the I Spit on your Grave remake did. Plenty of plot holes and predictable story. Few Rambo type traps to take out the bad guys who are literally just faces and zero character. Bruce Dern makes a brief appearance. Lead actress did a great job and never overplayed it......although some expressions looked as if she was trying hard not to crack a smile all the time.....which was odd. Ha ha

The ending was just daft and intended to shock.......but failed and ultimately leaves you feeling totally unfulfilled and disappointed. Watchable but don't expect to be gripped or have much empathy or hatred for any of the massively underdeveloped characters.
