SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

... View MoreIt is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
... View MoreThis is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.
... View MoreIf you can get passed something like the fact this movie has no big names and not that many recognizable faces, you may experience a very good suspense thriller. With the exception of a few of the 13 reviews preceding mine, most understood this was a well done movie. I'm no fan of Gabai, but I know a well directed movie when I see one; this is one hell of a surprise. For the first half or so of the movie, the director has us thinking and believing one thing, only this series of events, and scenes, was meant to get you involved. If you stayed with the movie up to that moment, you will be surprised and will feel the need to see the rest. That's when the director has you hooked. The camera work is very good, as is the editing; the musical score is not that great and thankfully there isn't much of it.I would spoil it for you if I give away more clues than the IMDb full storyline; it does not give away the key elements that make the movie a good thriller. Unfortunately, without giving away the key plot, you may very well think it's a boring story; it is not. I'm no fan of Adam Baldwin either; that alone almost made me skip the film. Thankfully I didn't. I liked the performances from the good looking Natalie Zea; she has the leading role. Though there are no out of the ordinary or outstanding performances from Zea or the next key character played by Sean Patrick Flanery, they are sufficiently convincing; you won't be blown away nor disappointed. As many reviewers stated, it is a movie that has you thinking; if you're not into that sort of movie, don't waste your time. I'm glad I did not dismiss the movie based on my opinion of Gabai's previous work; perhaps his editing and cinematography team had a good influence in this production, or he's been putting more thought in his work. If you are a fan of the genre (mystery/suspense/thriller), a genre that fails nowadays to gather big money for production, you must give this independent production (shot in two weeks) kudos for the result.
... View MoreInsight is one of the most exciting films I've seen in a long time. From the first beat to the last, my heart was racing with inexplicable and unexpected excitement, a feeling shared by others I talked to afterwards. The story grabs you right away, and you hang on for the ride until you get dumped off on your butt at the end, blinking and wondering what the heck just happened. You immediately want to see it again to catch all the subtleties you know you missed the first time around! This fast-paced flick is a multi-dimensional thrill- ride layered with subtle psychological/philosophical/sociological twists and turns that intrigue the viewer all the way to the end and leaves you unsure of what dimension you've arrived at and what conclusion to draw. The direction, camera work, acting and chemistry are right on target; characters exude mystery,pathos, loyalty, betrayal, lechery all leading to the question of Who Killed Allison Parks?! See this film and you will not be disappointed!
... View Morei don't write a lot of reviews actually , maybe because i am too lazy to waste some time writing on some stupid movie so i just rate it with 2 or 3 and move on . but when it comes to a good movie i became really happy to rate it with high rating because i admire the effort of acting and production . BUT THIS MOVIE made me bored to the point i didn't stand to the end of the movie because i really hated it !!! , it's just a repeated old story we watched it in a lot of movies i mean the visions which no one can see except the leading actor and all the mysterious bull sh** around the crime and all the spooky supporting actors who trying to mislead the viewer to think about who did the crime blah blah ...... well if u don't wanna be bored then simply don't watch it
... View MoreAs I read some of the reviews of the movie InSight, I was rather confused as to why anyone would write reviews which discuss how "the story is going nowhere" and how " the plot is very simple to figure out as the defining moment is the very beginning of the movie" etc. when they admit to only watching 15 or so minutes of the film. I think had they continued to watch, they would have discovered that simplicity is not a word one would associate with this movie, and the unfolding layers of the film definitely take it somewhere. What is most refreshing about the film is that the viewer is brought to a place of ambiguity, and I have always found that which is ambiguous to be the most interesting. After 15 minutes however, one would fail to see this development. Another refreshing aspect of the film is the beautiful, young actress Angeline-Rose Troy. Although her dialog is limited, her gestures and expressions speak to her innate talent, and I kept wanting to see more of her in the film.
