Raphael Teixeira This is a very intense thriller and drama movie. Carolyn (Ruth Bradley) scary me, Miranda Otto she so perfect on the character of mother. Great actors, intense history and good direction.The film is based on the true story of Melbourne teenager Rachel Barber who was murdered in 1999 by Caroline Reed Robertson. I knew this going into the film and surprisingly, it doesn't take anything away from this thriller.The performances by Guy Pearce and Miranda Otto are painful to watch at times because they're so believable. The way in which they cope with their daughter's disappearance is a stark contrast with Sam Neil's performance as Caroline's father. He sees Caroline as a nuisance.
kosmasp The title it played in Germany at the Fantasy Filmfest. A very strange little movie, that is very dark and will very likely appall a lot of people (if they don't know what they're in for especially), because of it's theme, but also because of it's graphic nature (at times, not that often, but still quite disturbing).The actors involved in here are all good, Guy Pearce giving a better performance (there must be a better script at hand I reckon) than in "Don't be afraid of the Dark". One of our lead actresses has to go to really tough places and she manages to do so very convincingly. Not for everyone and I'm not sure "enjoy" would be the right word to use after watching it, but this is a really good work of art!
Paul I was waiting for a long time coz of the title (in her skin). But after seen this impressive movie I can tell you it was not so disgusting however the exploit was gruesome to see. I love drama and some how I love it. If you love this movie you also have to watch Changeling with the same impact. The movie is entertaining and the height is not after one hour. You can see this movie in two parts. First hour the missing girl, the girl who hate herself so much and the second part the searching of the missing girl. Strong cast from Ruth Bradley. Sam Neill is not the main person in this movie but his cast is also good. Bit strange cover. Btw good music. This movie is also good for psychologists. Nobody is perfect!
Talktojudie I saw a movie today that moved me. I watched it by chance. I almost returned the movie to Netflix without watching. But, as luck would have it, I had nothing else to do, and nothing on my DVR, so I popped it in. I was in a trance the entire time. Simone North did something that is rarely done in movies today. She got a gut wrenching, honest and realistic performance. Ruth Bradley should have won an Oscar for her performance. The realistic portrayal of insanity was amazing. I was reading some reviews and was quite disappointed by their negative opinions of the movie. I am not sure what has happened to Hollywood. Why is it so one sided now? Why must everything in the movies be about portraying America as Bad and evil, the minority as the victim, the homosexual as the hero....I am okay with all of that IF THE MOVIE IS GOOD! Focus on the story, the acting....stop with the regurgitation of last years hits. Thank you Simone North for stepping out of the box and giving us some amazing performances.
