Just perfect...
hyped garbage
How sad is this?
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
I paid 7 bucks to rent on ITunes so took a bit of a gamble and glad I did. Gritty and dark. Jon Berthnal as always is fantastic. Christopher Abbott absolutely amazing. It's definitley a little hidden gem you should watch if you like nice little crime drama's.
Sweet Virginia is a good movie for people who like a bit of a film noir with a decent story. If you expecting fast-paced action scenes just skip this movie then because it all looks a bit slow. But that's how the story is. The soundtrack helps creating the thriller and suspense effect. The movie mainly centers around four characters played by Jon Bernthal, Imogen Poots, Rosemarie DeWitt and Christopher Abbott. They all did a good job playing their respective characters. Some reviewer mentioned this movie could become a cult movie, but that is too far fetched. It will never be a cult movie. It's just a enjoyable movie with a decent story to watch.
Hello middle of the road, here we are again with actor's you kind of know but kind of don't. The film is only average, you've seen it before somewhere believe me, anyway i'm mainly here because of Jon Bernthal, I've watched him in numerous TV shows and films now and most recently the Punisher, boy can he act, i don't think anyone ever could do what he does, and what is that i hear you ask?. He acts as a glorified tough man version of himself, in every scene in every show or movie ever. Enough Already. He plays the Punisher in a new TV show and now he's punishing us in real life, Jon Bernthal will surely get the Jon Bernthal Oscar this year, indeed nobody does Jon Bernthal quite like Jon Bernthal over and over and over.......
This was a strong movie, yet subtle in every way. The acting is superb and cinematography is profoundly impressive. It's a simple plot, but sticks in your head after, very thought provoking. I was impressed with Jon Bernthal's blunt emotional performance as well as Christopher Abbot's take on playing a psychopath with a conscience. It's a mystery, drama that will haunt you at the end. The China Brothers pay close attention to detail and focus in on unexpected, interesting camera angles throughout the film. This movie is ALL about 'less-is-more', unpretentious dialogue and realistic acting. It has its own style though, somewhere in between Robert Altman and The Coen Brothers. I think it's a perfect movie and one hell of an unexpected 'classic' of the year!
