Snow Angel

Like many people, I kinda saw coming the end. Or I thought I saw it. My girlfriend wanted to watch the film, so I had to watch it a second time. That second view made me see the film in another perspective. It's not a masterpiece, but if you don't think that the film is about the end, it's a great flick. The actors are very good, especially the lead actress. We're with her, in her head and we can see the other characters puzzled by the way she deals with her situation. It's an Indy film so there is some flaws...like what's up with all that smoke? The snowboard scene is great but the other "action scenes" could have been better.

This thriller has a good plot, and even tough the ending and the final twist makes you understand everything at the very end, you have plenty of clues throughout the entire film to be able to have a good idea of what's happening.

I've watched it 4 times already and each time, I can attach another string to the story. Small details you can only notice knowing the entire story, makes Snow Angel very fun to watch over and over again.

The music creates an atmosphere that makes you stay on the edge of your seat. The scenery and the light creates that creepy atmosphere.

The actors are all very good, but the main character of MJ played by Catherine Berube really makes the difference. She is astonishing !!!

This movie had everything I expected from a great thriller. The acting was top notch; open and unaffected performances by all actors. Catherine Bérubé was simply born to hit the big screen. Her natural talent fills the screen and so does little Margaux's.

I particularly enjoyed the way the lighting became one with the music. So dark, so creepy ! There was a scene in which a strobelike red glare played so thoroughly well with the sharp, jagged musical notes that the music practically became red. Totally in sync !

Loved the movie and will definitely watch it a few more times. Kudos to Gabriel Allard !

This was a great little independent movie with a M Night Shyamalan type vibe. And being that I love that style of creepiness, I really enjoyed it. The movie had me intrigued and connected to the main character MJ. Catherine Bérubé is a great actress and I can easily see her in a lead lady or supporting actress role in a big budget American movie. The movie kept me guessing, confused in a positive way... The pace is very good. The plot has a major twist at the end that explains everything (no spoilers from me). It's a well achieved ending.

This is a great directorial debut from Gabriel Allard. I think this guy is going places. I will be keeping an eye out for his next project.

I absolutely loved this movie! I was blessed to see it before it came out at the Montreal première with my best friend and we had a blast!

I knew some of the actors from previous french series or movies and was surprised to discover them in another way. I also have to admit that I was soooooo glad to see one more time in action my favorite person ever: Olivier Renaud!

The story is excellent from the begining to the end... and speaking of the ending, you will love it! It kept us on the edge of our seat!

I also loved that this was filmed in Quebec. I got the chance to discover some nice spots of my own province.

Go see it! You will love it too!! Xx.
