Restless

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 entire time I watched this film I just kept imagining the many ways to nip the situation in the bud that seem to escape the main character. It comes down to bad writing. Of course you can't have conflict if things are easy to solve, and therefore no film. But after the tenth time ty at calling the police would have solved everything, I got angry. This is just torture. It's not horror, or drama, or a thriller. It's just annoying torture. Don't do what I did - you really don't need to stick it out til the end just because you started watching it. If you're looking this up on IMDb mid-watch to see if it gets any better, it doesn't. Try something else.

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.

I had been looking forward to this one ever since I saw the trailer on YouTube. Maybe my expectations were too high, but the whole thing just fell flat. Still, I stuck with it, hoping it would pick up. Instead, it veered so far into the absurd that it lost any sense of believability. The writing didn't do it any favors either, clunky, uninspired, and completely lacking the tension you'd expect from something marketed as a thriller.

The premise had real potential, but it never felt fully realized. I've had my fair share of sketchy, loud neighbors, so on that front, I could relate. But I kept waiting for the story to take a darker, more gripping turn, something that would make the desperation feel urgent or earned. Unfortunately, that moment never entirely came until at the end and even then it was just.. there. Sadly won't be revisiting this one.

I enjoyed Reckless. It's movie about a woman living a home with a shared wall and her new neighbor is a noisy ruffian who parties all night. She asks him to keep it down, he won't be reasoned with, and a movie ensues.

A movie like this relies on a good escalation of events, which was done very well right up until it wasn't. In a movie like this no government entity is allowed to be effective, and on matters like this it can be a little tricky for police, but the movie crosses some lines that require suspension of disbelief. And it ultimately draws to a conclusion that didn't feel fleshed out, or earned. It leaves you with questions, but treats the matter as settled.

Lyndsey Marshal was obviously the star of the show here, and she did a great job. Her characters steadily wearing sanity was handled effectively, which helps keep you on her side as things start to come apart.

I want to give this movie a higher score, but the ending was just too sudden and it didn't feel like the situation was drawn to a definite enough conclusion.
