Um Estranho Segredo

Take four unlikable characters and put them in a house. Have nothing happen for nearly the whole movie then have someone break in. Again nothing happens. Some people get killed, the end. No suspense, no intrigue, no drama, no action, no laughs. Horrible characters, no story, superficial plot development, and blah blah blah. I found myself saying half way through, this movie sucks. Then I thought how many time have I said this then watched the rest of something? Why? Because you should at least try to watch a whole movie to judge it in it's entirety. There's no nudity, no hot chicks, no story, no plot and no action. It ultimately goes nowhere and isn't worth your time taken to view.

I really was torn between all the good and bad reviews on weather to see this one or not. After watching it I can see why. The story did not explain what the heck was going on at all unfortunately. So your trying to figure out why they are doing what they are doing. The acting was good and for that they get points but they really lost point with me for such a confusing story. This is one of those movies that is good to watch but nothing is explained so you wish you never started watching it in the first place. As always, be your own judge. I myself will not see this one again and will not recommend it to anyone I know.

I still can't answer that question after watching the movie. It's not terrible, I was mildly entertained through most of it. But it doesn't really feel like it has a point. There is a bunch of extra information that you think will play some part in the story but has no relevance. It tries to have some themes and character arcs but they don't work. It's a poor attempt, but I didn't hate watching it. (1 viewing, 4/24/2022)

Another poor lockdown movie, set entirely in a country home where two couples are having an uneasy evening together. Dark secrets spill out into violence, and that's even before a "home invasion" type scenario develops. Tom Cullen and Iwan Rheon have been fine elsewhere but can do little with the boring scripting and trite psychology here, while the latter half becomes increasingly ridiculous as well as being entirely overfamiliar.

It's a pretty good thriller filled with a sprinkle of dark comedy in it that heightened its level of threat in the third act, albeit a little too dark to see what's going on.
