Alienated

Okay, I'll be frank - I expected a little something different. perhaps, different and somewhat more suspenseful. This film kept me on the edge of my seat for one reason - I had to know if watching one scene of failed communication between lovers after another for an hour would be worth my time in the end. I admit - it was worth it. The ending was totally unpredictable, in the psychological thriller genre style. And it worked. The acting - really good jobs by both the protagonist actors. I also really enjoyed the supporting actor's performance - Negron's - whose acting reminded me of Al Pacino's in the Scent of a Woman. Overall, I'd say: watch this movie with a glass of wine and a slice of good, aged, expensive cheese to make it through the first 40 minutes or so. After that, you begin to appreciate your time with these characters more and more.

What a great film! Intimate and thought provoking with strong undercurrents of suspense through out the film. It gives a detailed portrait of the couple Nate (George Katt) and Paige (Jennifer Burry) as they navigate their changing relationship as they try to come to terms with a mysterious sighting. Excellent performances by both Katt and Burry with a script that delves into the heart of each loaded conversation as the couple circles and spars. It gives you a great look into each character as they lay out all of their hopes, flaws, quirks, and hot buttons with an intimacy that so closely borders on claustrophobia as those worries and insecurities begin to take over. An intriguing turn by Taylor Negron as Griffin, the couple's neighbor who both feeds into the Nate's obsession and provides a gut reality check at times. Wonderfully shot with an eye for the detail of daily life.

I can't say I'm a big review writer, nor can I speak for everyone because my partner fell asleep during this movie but bear with me. I watched it because I had recently given up on Apollo 18 and it happened to be lumped into the same genre and couldn't be bother looking any further. I read the reviews on it after watching, which doesn't make sense but the reviews did and I'll explain. If you are in a relationship now or have been in a long term relationship before then you will understand what the characters are getting at. There are no special effects and nothing that particularly stands out at all I hate to admit BUT it did provide something. It more or less revolves round a couple trying to understand each other and get frustrated with each other in the process. Morbid curiosity kept me watching as the married couple tore into each other and if I got one thing from the movie it's a few tips/lines on how to defuse my next argument with my other half.

For that it's worth a 6.

This is a movie labeled as a Drama & Sci-Fi Thriller, but what that label fails to mention is the subtle humor that permeates the entire film. The humor is dry and dark, but should not be overlooked because it breathes life into the characters. This film is an artists rendition of a troubled relationship with Aliens as a back drop that feels at once real and believable.

The dialogue is very strong and the actors play off each other very well. Taylor Negron is an interesting character that brings balance to the tension between the leads.

I've thought about this movie a lot since I watched it and would like to see it again. It a relief to know that movies with depth and feeling can still be made without million dollar budgets.

I gotta say I wasn't to sure about this one, but as a married man, this one evoke emotions I sometimes feel. A very good story, great dialogue, and good performances by three actors, two I watched for the first time deliver great roles in this movie that really goes into the heart of any and every true marriage. I say to young couples starting out, give this one a whirl, You'll probably see yourself in it. I really like movies that appeal to may intellect and not just my emotional side. Not much more to say other than, this is definitely worth the watch. I enjoyed it very much. Gonna recommend to some friends. Hopefully, they'll enjoy it just as much as I have.
