Keep Breathing (2022)
Promising start but falls dead after 3-4 episodes
Acting and cinematography are fine, and the storyline and pace are promising at first, but after a few episodes the ever increasing number of flashbacks became so annoying (and the bf too) that I stopped watching. Pity. Could've been done better.
How It Ends (2018)
Mediocre at best
The first half of the movie is decent, I guess. Acting is OK and tension gets built up. Second half of the movie spoils it: events happen randomly, the emotional bits aren't really convincing and the open end left me with a sense of two hours wasted. Will not watch a sequel (if any).
Road Games (2015)
Nice try but not very convincing
Though the mix of characters (hitchhiker, serial killer, young love, deranged couple) could make for an interesting thriller, Road Games didn't convince me for a minute. The acting is mediocre, some of the decisions the main characters make are completely unrealistic, the mix of English and French language doesn't work for me, and the role of one of the main secondary characters remains unexplained. This could all be forgiven if at least there was a good twist in the end, but unfortunately there wasn't - I saw the twist coming about halfway through the movie. And when the twist finally comes and the viewer gets the whole picture, some parts of the movie seem even more unrealistic. All in all a waste of time, I'm sorry to say.
