FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
john-08676-04364 I was impressed with the plot, which I thought was clever and believable. I also thought the acting was good. I'm no expert critic, but I cared about the characters, which means the actors did their jobs.
pal05052003 This is a thriller that is not what you would expect. It leans more on drama but also gives you tension as well. Dominic Monaghan plays the awkward man well, while his captive, played by Ksenia Solo also provides a great performance. From the beginning, Dominic Monaghan manages to make us root for his character, and even his kidnapping of Solo's character makes it look like he was being foolish, but not evil. Solo's performance is brilliant too because she manages to keep you guessing how she can outwit Monaghan's character and escape. The dialogues sound more like a philosophical back and forth but the acting body language is very obvious and requires careful observation from the audience. In the end, it is a good movie because you care for the protagonist, and it keeps you quietly wondering. The shortcoming was that the tension was too low key. The ending is interesting and if you fail to watch till the end, you will never appreciate the story.
joshuamiter Pet is a thriller about a man who abducts a woman and keeps her in a basement under the place where he works (a pet shop). This film has numerous twists and a very surprising end, however it is not enough to make this film a masterpiece.
Reno Rangan The last time I saw Dominic Monaghan was pretty impressive in 'The Millionaire Tour'. This film was not bad. But it kind of reminds other titles like 'Tusk', 'Eyes of my Mother' et cetera. Only thematically. The screenplay should have been improved by extending more dramatic events. At present, it was simple, though the twists were the saviours. Not the mind blowing twists, but for a small storyline like this, everything justified. I liked how film characters switched nature of their roles while story progressing. That was nicely designed characters for a thriller which added a bit of mystery flavour.The character Seth was really interesting one. Drawing a story out of him lacked depth in the later parts. Especially after the first twist revealed. The second half was unexpected, but also that's where the narration stared to fall off the track. One of the reasons was predictable. Though enjoyable film, until the finale. I thought it was overall a better film than I expected, but the end was not any good. Too cliché. You can easily spot they are interested in a sequel, so they kept it open. But closed conclusion would have made it a decent film.5/10
