Blue Jay

Excruciatingly pointless, storyline makes no sense and culminates into an ending that can only make you go huh?

Blue Jay begins as an intriguing if less than masterfully acted mountain adventure, lead by a socially awkward new boyfriend who is oddly motivated to push the main character up the side of the snow-covered mountain in the winter against her better judgment for reasons that are never entirely clear. Along the way they are stalked by a group of men dressed in summer clothing who seem to appear periodically along the trail as if they'd been beamed there from the transporter room of the Enterprise. No explanation is ever given for their motives or their ability to magically ascend up the side of the snow-covered mountain with no climbing or snow gear. The leader of the group talks as if he is part of some kind of environmental or religious cult but much of what he says makes no sense and his companions all appear to be slow, dull, and clumsy, as if they'd just stumbled out of a saloon, which leaves the viewer to wonder what they are doing there in the first place. The movie eventually degenerates into a thoroughly disappointing and depraved horror movie with undertones of sexual violence.

The only thing amazing about this film was the mountains, wilderness and snow peaks. Otherwise it's the worst movie and I would not recommend you waste your time

You see, this is the problem with reading reviews on here sometimes; no appreciation of a well made independent film. I loved this thriller. I think a lot of people like to come on here and trash movies. This movie was well written, well acted, and had my wife and I on the edge of our seats. The angrier my wife gets when I talk through movies, the more I know she loves it. This film was beautifully shot for not being a large budget film, with multiple intense scenes that were extremely intense. Sara Lindsey was especially convincing. I thought the acting was very strong, from the waitress in the beginning, who clearly had the authenticity of a mid-west girl to the antagonist, who was well chosen and did a great job. I would definitely recommend seeing this movie.

This movie seemed pointless, and very frustrating. Would not recommend.
