NipPierce Wow, this is a REALLY bad movie!

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

kai ringler I thought this was a really thought provoking movie from the start, and it only get's better as the movie slowly moves on,, A man who just reached his 40th birthday,, has everything going for him,, job , health , family,, then he goes to a hospital for a "routine" surgery,, somehow through utter incompetence his chart got switched and he get's an unnecessary prodecure that of course he does not need.. things get worse ,, as their is no reversing the procedure,, things get worse,, and he realizes there is no hope,, he starts going mad,, having suicidal tendencies,, and he family is put in a situation that no family should be in,,, very enjoyable from a dark point of view,, like what would you do in that situation,, I turned 40 a few years back,, and absolutely dread going to the Dr. or Hospital,,, so I can relate.

ConDeuce Back around 1980, when cable TV started its proliferation, it still had that anything goes feel that happens with something new. HBO was one of the first premium channels and along with the usual movies that filled out its limited on-air hours (it was not on 24 hours back then) the network often programmed what could be described as filler content especially on the weekends when it was on the air for somewhat longer stretches. Most of these films were forgettable movies like Ashanti" (boring and lifeless) and "Voyage of Tanai" (truly a WTF movie if there ever was one). But into this mix would sometimes appear movies that did spark interest and sometimes became hits because of their airing on cable. Two films that come to mind are "Over the Edge" (which made a big impact on the girls in my 8th grade class due to Matt Dillon) and "Homebodies", a truly oddball movie about senior citizens becoming homicidal when confronted with the prospect of being evicted from their homes. Both of these films were true finds and could have found life playing commercial stations as well but their presence on cable made their impacts more pronounced because of the lack of commercials and no editing. "Sublime" falls into this category. Apparently a straight-to-video release, it stars what could only be described as second tier TV actors (Tom Cavanagh, George Newbern) and directed by Tony Krantz who had no directorial credits to his name. Surprisingly, the movie plays extraordinarily well. It's suitably eerie, confusing (intentionally so) and most importantly, it makes you care about the main characters especially Cavanagh's George and Kathleen York's as George's wife, Jenny. I will admit that I did not "get" a lot of what is allegedly the films symbolism and frankly the point of the movie really didn't hit me (I kept rewinding it right before the end to hear what Jenny and George were talking about because it seemed to be related to what he does) but to me, it didn't really matter. "Sublime" is not a film that someone just threw together. It has a great atmosphere, is intelligent and thoughtful and is certainly not your run-in-the-mill enterprise.

FilmBum This was a well acted, well shot horror piece with a good script, well thought-out ideas and an all around competent cast. Visual imagery was impressive, and those concepts that seemed 'borrowed' from other films of its ilk still appeared fresh and original.The one area where this film was lacking was in pacing - using an uneven mixture of uninvolved flashbacks and main story scenes, this film at times felt like plodding cross between the Twilight Zone and the Red Shoe Diaries, as opposed to a legitimate psychological thriller.Recommendations would be for the release of a re-cut version which picks up the pacing and delivers far more of the main storyline, cutting down on the heavy load of unnecessary flashbacks and needless dialog.

tor-holst Acting, directing and artwork was in all a very pleasant, or should I say unpleasant, surprise. Especially from a direct to video, low budget movie. The movie explores, and slightly overexposes, the fear of the average upper middle-class white guy. Big scary black men, Muslims, homosexuality, and so forth. Actually the theme is spelled out for us: If a man lives his life in fear, does that life only have meaning if the fears are real, if they come true. No problem so far - great premise for a horror movie. But that's not enough, in all political correctness it was evidently a must to point out that what we are afraid of can also set us free. Fine, I don't mind the message - but not at the cost of a terrific ending. You'll know when you see it. For see it you should.
