CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

ad-182 I reckon this is a real cinematic achievement for a micro budget film. The cinematography is lush and moody, and its backed up with great performances by an impressive cast - Peter Mullan as a blind abusive husband, Jodhi May as his desperate wife, Anders Bertelson as her unwitting lover and Phyllida Law as Mullan's tricky mother. Like the mud pit threatening to drown the cast at the start of the film, the dark mood established draws you into a murderous love triangle and morality tale. Looks like it was inspired by The Postman Only Rings Twice as it has similar obsessive characters at the heart of the story. Definitely worth a look!

dilbertsuperman I was enjoying this film right up until the last 15 minutes or so where they tried to tie everything up and be poetic and all that good stuff and a bag of chips. The ending removed all hope that this movie was leading into something good. I like the backdrop and the characters and some of the plot and for all that- you should take a peek. Yet this movie has a horrible and painful flaw of a ridiculous plot twist that when introduced, will remove all ability to take this movie seriously anymore. You'll know it when you see it.So if you understand you are watching a mortally wounded script that is still interesting then you can get some entertainment out of this because it does have an interesting little drama to play out.PLOT: To a Scottish farm woman- a dutch handyman who arrives is a whole lot more interesting than her blind cranky farmer husband. She is tragic in that the worst luck befalls her men. As romance starts to fill up the air so does tragedy.

Andrew Ross Don't go see this film if you're feeling down or a bit depressed. It's quite possibly the bleakest film I've ever seen. I cannot recall a single light moment. Having said this, it is superbly shot, the plot maintains your interest to the end and the acting is excellent. A real plus was Samantha Bond who looked well tasty as the Doctor. The Mike Hammershoi character took some working out (still not quite sure what made him tick) and Francis Black was real mean, brilliantly portrayed by Peter Mullan. I've no idea of this film's budget but it can't have cost much to make unless the actors were paid a fortune. The most expensive props seemed to me to be those being dumped in the bottomless pit !

calum_mac Just seen this film and was not very impressed.I don't deny the fact that there was some tense moments throughout the film, but there was not enough substance to keep me entertained. The plot was not as deep as i had hoped and was very straight forward.I had expected a lot more from this film, as the setting and build up to the story are fantastic. The location is was brilliant and the actor who plays Francis was excellent. As the story continued i felt let down. There was not enough to keep me interested and began to feel bored and frustrated (as did all the other people who left the cinema during the screening).Possibly worth a look, but i recommend you try something else . . . . .
