Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

foutainoflife This is a woman's tale. It's not about some feminist women not wanting men around. This is about women who are forced into the position of having to learn to live without men while wishing they would come home. I love that it was a slow burn because it really pulled me into how they were feeling. My only disappointment was the ending but great movie, regardless.

hanshep-35461 The plot of the movie was very intense, it kept you on the edge of your seat, However, at the same time you can learn what it was like to live back in the time of the Civil War.

Brianna Pino I like this movie and i'm surprised some feel differently towards it. It was cool to see the war coming from a woman's perspective and show the horrors of the woman trying to defend their home and themselves. It showed how at the end of the Civil War that it was violent and it also showed women didn't have much respect. We noticed that it showed not only the woman's perspective but the man's as well. Many could say they view this movie differently but I viewed it as showing how strong women were in this time period and to show the destruction the Civil War caused.I personally recommend this movie for learning purposes as well as to get an insight on the different perspectives of the Civil War.

Daffy Deck For people that are interested in black/white history this is a gripping movie; The Keeping Room has a very real-feel. So many movies in trying to be a movie are just that; A MOVIE; and suspending disbelief becomes an effort. Thinking this is an action movie is like driving fast down the motorway; you get to your destination quickly; but miss the scenery. TKR is full of scenery; a feminine treat for men and women alike. Absorb it's slow momentum; the grinding tension of ignorance coupled with power. Ultimately it's a quote that captures the movie "we are all ni99ers now", denoting shifts of power and the casual onset of humility that comes with empathy and desperation.
