Beyond the Woods

Really slow at the start and doesn't accelerate too much. I was tempted to turn off almost instantly but wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt. This then lead to me feeling that I had to finish just because I had started, not because I was particularly entertained or engrossed.

Felt very low budget and some of the scenes were unbelievably long in one shot and dragged out with very little dialogue.

The emotion felt a little forced, the acting was not entirely believable and Andrew was trying too hard, it just came across as boring.

The music was too loud over the dialogue.

A couple of positives though, I did start to feel empathy for Jack and his scenes especially with his sister were the highlights.

However, I would definitely not endure again.

There is not much to be said for this movie other than it should not have been made as it is so slow and boring and rather a depressing and futile experience and who needs that these days when there is enough misery around; it makes watching paint dry a fun experience.

Not much to review about this film as it does not deserve much more than a few lines - If you are thinking the bad reviews might be shills or exaggerating like I did, then don't; it is a moronic film! So pay attention to the low star reviews on this one or you will waste and hour and a half of your time which would be better spent washing and waxing your car!

In a few scenes, I literally laughed out loud at how slow and brooding this movie is. So in that sense, it's almost worth watching just for that: sort of like "It's so bad that it's good". The script must have been approximately one paragraph worth of dialogue and action: the rest of the movie involves the camera in one angle for untold minutes while characters say approximately three words per minute, they sit or stand. I only made it 40 minutes in before giving up, and I don't give up on movies. I guess it was worth the laughs though.

I hope all of the investors of this waste of disk space went broke. They are definitely in the wrong business. A visual wasteland.

This could have been a great movie...but it went nowhere. Imagine...walking in the woods...hoping to see a dinosaur...you're ready...excited...here it comes!!!! And then boom..it's a squirrel. But maybe it's a squirrel doing ninja things, prepped to take on another squirrel dojo. Unfortunately, it was just a squirrel sort of standing there, you looking at it...him looking at you. You both know there's nothing cool that's going to happen, but just incase you stare a bit longer. It poops, does what you think is a grin and moves along. That was a lot like this movie.
