Ecco (2019)
Not your typical action movie
The mystery of the storyline in ECCO was very intriguing and kept me engaged. The cinematography was especially captivating. The performances by the three main actors had nuances that didn't just give away the story or the twists. Additionally, I appreciated seeing different faces on screen than the normal ones in a genre like this because it leads one to think that these people could be anyone.
The Penitent Man (2010)
Decent but could use some work
I recently saw "The Penitent Man" at the Seattle premiere early this week. The two main actors, Lance Henriksen and Lathrop Walker, performed very well. The soundtrack was appropriate and professional. In my opinion, what was supposed to be undertone was overtly obvious. The movie itself had interesting points and almost not surprisingly was written in two weeks. The director, who also co-wrote and produced the film, is very young and it is apparent that it is early in his career. There were places in the film that were overly tense and suspenseful feeling awkward and tearing the viewer away from the relationship trying to be established with the characters. This movie had potential based on the storyline idea but fell flat in the end.
