The Sister (2020)
Enjoyable, bug slow moving
I thoroughly enjoy these British dramas. I really liked the supernatural element to the theme too! It was different! I thought there was just enough tension throughout, kept me watching right until the end. Although I will say, I hit the 'skip 10 seconds' arrow quite a lot,(watched on netflix) as there are aLOT of long pauses and dragged out time. It definitely adds to the tension in one sense, but not that much was needed I believe.
I really liked the Bob character, the actor was captivating, and I loved the voice and demeanor he portrayed.
I would definitely recommend it, if you enjoy the usual BBC dramas etc... And you're not needing anything fancy or fast moving. Just a good drama,with an intriguing, mysterious, thriller plotline.
I Came By (2022)
Enjoyable, but a bit silly ..
I actually did enjoy watching this, but as previous reviews have said, not a great storyline, and would've liked to have seen more depth to the characters and maybe a twist.
One thing that noone seems to have commented on ...the villain (Hugh Bonneville) mentions at one stage midway through the film,about his wife. Who is in a psychiatric hospital 😳 ... Eh hello? I really thought they were going to expand on that. That maybe he had forced people to believe she was crazy or something.... But no. That information was never brought up again! Never!😳 That was weird. I remember as the film ended, thinking Eh the wife? Really? Nothing there?
Also, Toby discovers a beat up man in a small room...has the opportunity to escape himself, but grabs a hammer and runs in willy nilly, with no thought to his plan, and slips onto his face straight away!🙈bye bye main character, so quickly, after such a stupid action. That was annoying.
And the young guy from Iran...gets away with his life, after being drugged and almost captured, he then, the next day, gets into the car with Hugh!!! That was the point where I lost all respect for the film.
In saying that, I did enjoy watching it to a degree😝👍
