White Lie

I wondered what i'd get with this and i was surprised by the intensity. a very good performance by the actors and the directors did their job well. i would recommend this movie if you like suspenseful character driven movies where you don't know what's going to happen next. a very nice treat!

Newb producers, writers and directors Yonah Lewis and Calvin Thomas put together a gem of a film, where one's self-interest combined with sociological expectations and acceptance, blur into paranoid toxicity of constant lies that tear apart lovers, friends and families. Kacey Rohl was amazing in her role, and her facial expressions added more anxiety and tension than the lies themselves. Cinematography was perfect, and the score on point. The 96 minute runtime felt longer with the slow pacing and continuity issues in the writing. But even still, the constant anxiety you will have watching this film, is a testament to the excellent film-making put together by newbs Lewis and Thomas. It's a well deserved 8/10 from me.

The best cinema always gets you thinking and if a film ever had the power to do that you've just found it. How you scale and share your empathy between cause and effect might reveal a lot about the way you perceive the world around you. On the one hand - she'll get what's coming to her, deceitful so and so and, on the other, what has happened to cause this young woman to behave this way. Either way, whatever your bias, I think you'll find it hard to ignore that at the centre of this is an outstanding and convincing performance from Kacey Rohl.

Absolutely loved this movie, good and plausible storyline, with great acting

Kacey Rohl's performance is as good as acting gets. But the story is just a series of events in which Katie's lie is about to be exposed, and she struggles to keep it hidden. It doesn't build, the characters don't learn, and there's no payoff.

I understand the filmmakers are trying to be real, and this is a serious and well-made film, but I can't imagine anyone enjoying it.
