Review of Tortured

Tortured (2007 Video)
9/10
This should have been in theaters if it was't, and if it was should have been promoted better
28 November 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Pros: enough twists and turns with that dash of suspense and drama to keep someone loaded on Thanksgiving dinner awake for the entire film.

Cons: Flashbacks (jumping from the current day back to 6 months before), no closure If you don't mind flashbacks, this is a pretty good movie. The actors in it play their typical roles I felt, which made it a little easier to predict the ending than I would have liked. I do not want to go into any details, so if I sound too vague I apologize.

Starting the movie after 2am, I figured I would be bored and fall asleep quite quickly. I was caught off guard by the film, because I had not read anything going into it. It had pretty much all of the necessary elements to satisfy my movie craving...action (the torturing and shooting), suspense (is he telling the truth or not, who is bad, who is good), drama (will she stay or go, will he keep his job or not), and a few twists that I did not see coming (maybe because it was almost 3am).

I would highly recommend this movie to most of the people I know.

I hope there is a second one to provide a little closure to the movie!!
