Good story, Not enough for a whole film
... View MoreFantastic!
... View MoreAll of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
... View MoreOne of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
... View MoreTwo unnamed children's parents die and they try to survive in their rustic Alps farm. Unnamed teen girl gets raped and hunted. Not much dialogue. Many slow scenes such as the boy getting a splinter. Girl swims naked. People go to mass. Even the action scenes were slow. Not much to see here. Remarkably won best feature at the San Diego Film Festival 2013. Maybe I am missing something.Some nudity (Sophie Lowe)
... View MorePersonally I looked at the name of the movie & figured it was a Horror movie of sorts - I was wrong(or was I). In a word, one may say this movie is "Deep", but I think it was a waste of valuable time. The very first scene leaves one wondering.. and by the very last scene, one is still not quite sure what just happened (& if one has a higher IQ, one may have postulated so many theories which may lead one to frustration). The 'leading lady' did stupid things which resulted in bad consequences.. The bad guys behavior was inconsistent. This is one movie, wherein YOU can speak in the cinema & no-one would "shhh" you for it, because words are a welcome addition to any movie in the 21st century! Okay, so its set in a rather secluded, mountainous area & if a brother & sister had no-one but themselves as friends/family, they should know each other well enough to not have to speak all the time (I get it)... BUT IF I WANT PEACE AND QUITE, I WON'T GO TO THE CINEMA!! ~One
... View MoreI watched the first 10 minutes, don't know why I bothered. Fast forwarded with the occasional stop till the last 15 minutes. Watched the last part of he movie. All I can say is it was excruciating, no dialog to speak of and no dialog worth listening too. Beautiful images of mountain scenery but no context to make you feel any emotion about it all. Tragic story but no connection made to the characters so why bother. Had no clue who anybody was or what was going on till I looked up the character/actor description in IMDb. After reading all the reviews on IMDb it's pretty obvious that people associated with the movie make most of the positive comments. No normal person in there right mind would write such positive reviews for such rubbish. Very disappointed.
... View MoreWhile "Autumn Blood" is a very visually astonishingly beautiful movie, it lacks anything that even resembles a storyline that is compelling and interesting.The story is about a recently orphaned boy and girl living in a cabin on the mountain, when their solitude is shattered as the girl is sexually assaulted by a man, who later returns with his friends for more easy pickings. The orphans flee into the mountain to escape from their tormentors.There is very little dialogue in the movie, which really made it difficult to sustain one's attention fully to the movie for the entire course of the feature. And not even the spectacular visuals - in form of scenery and cinematography - could manage to remedy for a lacking storyline and dialogue.When I sat down to watch this movie it was because I saw that Gustaf Skarsgård was in it. But still, even he didn't really manage to pull this movie out of a mediocre gutter.If you enjoy thrillers, then there are far better movies available then "Autumn Blood". This movie was rather predictable as well.I am rating "Autumn Blood" a mere 3 out of 10 stars, solely because of the impressive visuals, because the rest of the movie failed to spellbind me or properly entertain me in any way.
