Rupture

A woman is abducted by some people who tell her she is special and are going to "change her" to make her perfect.

This is a well acted, well shot, fairly well produced mid budget movie. Sometimes the sets look a bit over-lit and the few bits of CGI look cheap and nasty but overall the film is of a high standard.

The main character is very good and has a lot to shoulder. She does spend the majority of the film trussed up in one way or another looking petrified. This is not done in a way that makes it graphic, gory or titillating.

The only problem here is that the story doesn't have an awful lot to say but takes its merry time saying it.

Now, if you can get into this movie I think you will find it tense and enjoyable. I found I lost my patience a bit, I was gripped enough to want to see it through but my finger was hovering over the fast forward.

It appears I have a limit to the amount of time I am prepared to watch someone tied to a table and preached at.

The ingredients are here for something pretty good but be prepared to put the work in yourself.

This is a totally spoiler free review because it's best to see this film without knowing what to expect.

I watched this film with no expectations in mind at all, and i have found it watchable. Yes, it's nowhere near any of the best sci-fi movies, but it's an alright watch.

The dialogue of the movie is kind of lame and that's the thing that bothered me, but when it comes to the pace of the movie it's really good, i can guarantee you will not be bored. As for the plot, it's intriguing and I can't say you haven't seen it before, but i found it OK.

In the end, Rupture is a good watch at home when you have nothing to do and feeling like killing some time. Not great, not bad either, just mediocre.

Rupture wasn't a bad movie. Noomi Rapace keeps you engaged until you learn about the motives of the antagonists in this story. It's a very chilling and at times uncomfortable to watch movie for the right person. I personally would have been open to learning more about the motives of the antagonists, the other patients and that whole setting where Noomi was held captive. I feel there could have been more story there to fill the otherwise gap in the antagonists motives. Nonetheless, It's a thrilling movie to watch, and Noomi Rapace keeps you at the edge of your seat throughout the entire movie my rating stands at 7/10.

The movie was pretty good all the way until the end. It had a horrible ending as if we will never know what has happened with the little boy. I hate movies that ends abruptly like that.

I rarely watch horror films, and I only tend to watch suspense films that don't have an absurd amount of gratuitous gore. When I saw the title and the Rotten Tomatoes score, I almost passed on it. But when I saw Noomi Rapace's name, I decided to give it a chance. I still think her performance in the original 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo' is one of the most perfect performances I've ever seen. Every word and every subtle movement in that film was pure genius, to which I credit Rapace as well as brilliant director Lasse Hallstrom. Though her performances will probably never match that one, nor will the films themselves, she does some things very well in Rupture. She's very physical and palpable in her close-ups, which works great in this setting. I'm not sure that I ever completely figured out some of the the specifics of the premise (I don't want to give away any more than that), but I was glued to the edge of my seat the whole movie. The casting was good, with the exception of Michael Chiklis, who seemed like a fish out of water. Peter Stormare was effective as always. I generally loved the suspense and uncertainty of the film, which was allowed to play out by director Steven Shainberg without giving much away to the viewer. And I actually loved the ending, which is rare for me. For fans of horror/suspense/sci-fi/thrillers, I think you'll find this film to be a bit of a hidden gem.
