"Committed" offers a compelling narrative that delves into the psychological thriller genre with finesse. Andrea Roth's portrayal of psychologist Celeste DuPont brings depth to the character, and her journey into the remote psychiatric facility adds an intriguing layer to the storyline. The revelation that her superior, Dr. Quilley (Peter MacNeill), has unknowingly committed her to the facility sets the stage for a gripping exploration of trust, deception, and the fragile boundary between sanity and madness.
The film excels in building tension and keeping the audience engaged, with a well-executed plot that unfolds with twists and turns. The remote setting enhances the sense of isolation and intensifies the suspense, contributing to the overall atmospheric quality of the film. While the premise is captivating, the movie's strength lies in its ability to navigate the complexities of mental health and institutional power dynamics. With strong performances and a thought-provoking I'd say 6 stars.

This is a solid independent film.
Layered characters that had good acting, and a story that was interesting enough to make me want to keep watching.
The camerawork was actually pretty cool, I could tell they were doing handheld shots and angles when they wanted to show Mary (the main character), uneasy or going through things in her mind.
It went a little too far into the "drama" side that slowed down the thriller parts, but it made me care for the characters more, so I didn't mind it.
I like movies that get melodramatic but keep it grounded.
I would consider watching this again in the future.
