Piercing Wounds

This may not be a 10, but it certainly is no 1 star! I enjoyed the story, well written with all the elements men and women would appreciate - action, suspense, drama, romance, betrayal, redemption ... and the acting was believable. (who cares about the wig ... it was in the movie all of what, 5 minutes) The actress was delightful and the relationship with her brother had me laughing in serveral parts. The intense scenes were that - intense. And I literally cried during the somber scene. This movie touched every emotion - well done.

As for the lead not writing, producing, directing and acting in his own movie - uuuuuummm - Denzel Washington, George Clooney, Ben Afleck, Mel Gibson, Clint Eastwood, Angelina Jolie, Jodie Foster, Tom Hanks, Sylvester Stallone .... REALLY! That's not ego dudes ... it's show biz. 🙄

Yes, yes, yes! A great clean action-romance film to watch with your family! Sometimes it's hard to find a good love story that has a balance. Usually the classic love stories have that conflicting drama that goes back and forth between the guy and gal like the Nicholas Sparks movies. And those films tend to attract the ladies. But this film also adds a nice element of action and thriller to the plot. That's another thing, I thought the pacing and character arch was really good. And there was really good chemistry with the three leads, they all complimented each other greatly. Even though this is an indie film, I give it a 10 because it's not something I've seen before, and I highly recommend it. And some may disagree, but I loved it.

This is not a perfect movie, but it is to me. I have an obsession with story and specifically love stories. I like a lot of Nicholas Sparks novels and of course the Stephenie Meyer Twilight series. And maybe it's just been awhile since I seen a good love story and I feel like there hasn't many advertised, but all that to be said, I love this film.

It's an independent film and a simple one. There is a wig in the beginning that I thought was kinda funny but it was only for a couple minutes. But the writing was pretty darn good, and I read a lot of scripts. I did like all 3 leads, and the red headed guy that played the villain, but I mostly liked Melanie. I can relate to her in a lot of ways. It would be interesting if they made a second one.

I'm a huge fan of action films. And I'm kind of a martial arts buff. I stumbled across this little gem and watched it without a break, as I do with some movies. But this one had a nice story and character arc that I enjoyed. The fights scenes and techniques were really well done. I like the characters, they were very believable and it was cool to see how the three of them all needed something, and how they all full filled each other in the end. The score was pretty cool for an indie film. And the ending was good. It had a nice little flow of emotions, which, I don't really look for because I mostly like action movies, but in this case, it was well done.

My take away, if you like indie films and good acting, and you don't nit pick every little thing in a movie, this is an enjoyable watch.

If you're watching this expecting big explosions and Hollywood graphics, you're going to be let down. This is not a Hollywood production film. However, Confound Productions has a great writer, producer and only continues to get better. This is, by far, my favorite movie that has come out by them. It has action, romance, and comedy. There was some great acting in it and good chemistry between actors, it really seemed like the main cast clicked well, and it kept me interested the entire time. It's also a 'clean' movie, like all of their films. I don't have an issue with swear words, rated R, or care about religion, but if it's something you're looking for in a movie, this is a good movie for you, as are all of Confound Productions! I'd definitely say they're family friendly. Give it a try. I can't wait for the next one!
