![]() ![]() Dare I say, Ghost found the climax a bit weak. Methinks If you do, then you’re in for one heck of a ride. If you do not then this film will be a hard slog. After the earlier vicissitude befalls our hapless duo, you’ve got to believe their actions. Perhaps where the movie falls short is in the decision making of its lead characters. Even though Matt Palmer trudges over familiar ground, he did manage to grace us with something a little different. There's only so many ingredients, but you can combine them and use them in new and interesting ways. However, despite its obvious nods to the backwoods terror movie & Shallow Grave. We've already seen this kind of story in other films, so the originality prize is not included. While I found this 'Ham Of A Sandwich' thriller to have all the Hallmarks of a great, gritty Brit flick, I wasn’t blown away. <<< Not sure where that gets me, I just felt compelled to mention it. I for one, can tell you, I can't imagine being in that situation I don't even like hunting, to begin with. Rather, he is as timid, maybe a bit awkward, even, and emotionally driven as anyone would expect in a real-world scenario. He wears his emotions on his sleeve, and isn't "macho" in any sense of the word. Jack Lowden (Vaughn) was great, he’s one that most people can understand. ![]() one of the most redeemable qualities of the film is how its suspense comes from slow, quiet inexorable tension punctuated with a few acts of violence that seem authentic, bearing none of the sensationalism or tired clichés one gets in garbage like some other films. What I will say is that this is an effective slow burn up and spare film that keeps you gripped throughout, including in the moments where not much happens. To say too much about the plot of Calibre would be to spoil it, so I won't. Without further ado, in a claustrophobic-looking community in the Scottish Highlands, two urban young men go from bad to worse. After a slow night, and nothing good on TV, gave it a go. The only thing I'd known about "Calibre" while flicking through a list of films on Netflix - was the hype. And really, that alone was enough to get the curiosity piqued. Go digging in Shakespeare and you will find a line that says “he who would make a pun would pick a pocket.”Īdmittedly, I only watched it 'cause a friend recommended it. I know, it’s cliché, but the “magic of the movies.”Ī while back I read a review for 'Don't Breathe' where the reviewer stated, "I wasn't sure what to expect when I plucked this movie at Walmart from their five dollar bin." Then there are those who go for the je ne sais quoi of the big screen 'cause the experience is “an event”, a celebration of the release of an anticipated film. Some people go to the cinema for escapism - for a diversion a well-deserved break from real life. The first 25 mins were good, then it kinda drifted off. To clarify so that people don't get confused.Īs far as the quality of the movie is concerned, in my opinion, it was just Okay. This movie, however, wasn't made by Netflix, it was just distributed by them. ![]() I think I read that they are building their own soundstages now and will begin to produce stuff on their own. But again, that's a joint venture where the production is handled by a few companies. I think Netflix has co-produced some of their bigger films like Bright. House of Cards is also not made by Netflix. It's only shown on Netflix because the show was pitched to them by Lionsgate, Netflix decided to order the show and buy it, then Lionsgate went out and made it. Instance, the series Orange is The New Black is made by Lionsgate. Then they brand them as Netflix Originals because that's the only place you can see them. Netflix doesn't really make these things. This phrase gets thrown out a lot - A Netflix original. This is a Netflix original film, and it's a damn good one!
