Strange But True

Not sure what happened here but it's an interesting case study.

This worst titled movie ever starts with a well-crafted, unpredictable mystery with just enough hints dropped to completely engage the audience and keep them guessing. All the way up until the final mind-blowing clue, the movie works.

And then that all goes away, and it's one contrived, cliched confrontation after another. Complex characters all become one-dimensional morons, and the movie degrades into mindless, forgettable action replacing thoughtful dialogue.

Great premise ruined at the end by amateurish, unnecessary "guns and blood!"

This film tells the story of a woman who believes she carries the child of her dead boyfriend.

The plot is mysterious to start with, and then becomes very engaging and captivating. I really feel for all the characters, including the mother, father, brother, the girlfriend and the girlfriend's neighbors. Who would have thought the plot takes such a dramatic turn and becomes so touching. I really enjoyed this film.

Then you didn't pay enough attention.

It bugs me when people give the movie low rating but their comments make it obvious that they didn't pay attention or missed major parts.

This was a slow burn at the beginning but once we found out who the father was it picked up and concluded very well.

The acting was great

over all

5.9

This is a solid movie. Slow in parts, but not too slow. It throws in a few surprises, but I saw many of those coming. Very few movies are truly original these days, but this film does a good job of repackaging what has come before. Can't complain about the acting and directing. It's solid enough for a film of this kind.

It's a decent little movie, which I would recommend.

This is one of those mystery tales that keeps you guessing as to why our young female is now pregnant from, she believes, her deceased boyfriend from five years ago. We are teased with several possibilities from the mysterious to the bizarre. Of course the answer as to what happened occurs in the final minutes so be patient as you guess who, or what happened.
