Tear Me Apart

Came across this film by chance, the strongest point is the beautiful cinematography and the really really amazing background music score which makes it feels more expensive than it is.

This film gives you a story and the visuals bring you into it thank you for making art alive again. I can imagine that the writer thought this out with visual shots in mind. I'm so happy to see people watching and writing reviews. If only everyone would contribute to taking five minutes of their time it would help allot of creatives out there.the author said this: I'm not saying that Prime is the best path for every film, but with a bit of planning and lot of hard work in the build up, it can produce a small but decent revenue stream, and one that we hope to build upon moving forward.

Now we find ourselves competing with big studio movies and Oscar-winners, so we need your help. Reviews on Amazon and IMDb are all we have against their monetary might!

Thank you for reading and hope it's been helpful.

Now off you go and review Tear Me Apart!

When making a movie was a feat of its own, this movie would have blown people away. Castaway, meets lord of the flies, meets, well, cannibalism. Or something like that. But nowadays, we have two kinds of movies big budget and bigger budget, and the small indie realm has been flooded with films that are awful. This film is not bad. And is worthy of a watch for indie lovers, sci fi lovers, and cannibals. Overall, pretty nice effort.

Okay so this movie, quite predictable. Well shot. Cinematography of the coastline and ocean was quite stunning. Perhaps way too much of it though. The story was similar to some other movie from long ago I can't recall the title of at the moment. But in essence this is another oh no we're completely buggered and the future depends on us, film.

After a disaster that has destroyed civilisation two brothers have reverted to cannibalism to survive and one day they meet a teenage girl which causes emotional unrest between the siblings

Anyone else getting a little bit fed up with apocalyptic dramas ? You can see why they're attractive to budding film makers because you don't need a big budget , just some rudimentary film equipment, a small cast and a screenplay. In the case of TEAR ME APART the problem lies entirely with the screenplay and sabotages any potential right from the outset. As someone who loves the works of authors like Wyndham and John Christopher I can tell the difference between a good apocalyptic drama and a bad one and the plot holes here mark it out as mainly a bad one . A father takes his two young sons from Scotland to Cornwall ? Why go all that way just to live in a cave since there's plenty of caves in Scotland ? The younger brother is totally unaware what women are ? Let me see now - these two brothers eat random strangers in order to survive and during this considerable time not a single woman has ended up on the menu . By dropping hints at the backstory the story itself digs itself bigger and bigger holes

This is a great pity because there's a good film trying to escape here somewhere. There's a refreshing lack of aliens, zombies and other monsters and instead the antagonists are simply other humans trying to survive in a cruel world. It's also character driven exploring group dynamics and sibling rivalry and the small do the best with the often weak material especially Jennie Eggleton as Mollie . It also makes the incisive point about the human mind-set that we're all conservative by nature and will choose the devil we know. At the end of the day however the film doesn't really overcome the ill thought out opening spiel
