Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

I can't believe that people would give this movie a terrible rating! I think you must be a complete amateur to give this movie any less then 7 because its is beautifully made, very realistic actor and actresses and completely heart warming as well as keeping you wanting to find out more! Just because it doesn't have blood and guts splattering all over gods creation, don't mean it's a terrible movie, much less a movie for little kids!! I will agree that maybe it shouldn't have been listed under horror and more like thriller but that's not the movies fault, it's whomever listed it under that category! And when u give it a bad rating, it messes with people thinking that the actual movie sucks when it's the listers fault! Some people may not watch or rent it then! Anyways (end rant) GREAT MOVIE!! Must see!!

This film deserves a much higher score than it has. It a well acted, beautifully shot film with great atmosphere and a slightly different storyline. It is not a run of the mill gorefest and if you like severed limbs with buckets of blood and a boringly predictable soundtrack then look elsewhere. The publicity picture that goes with this film is totally misleading but I can understand that as this film is quite hard to categorise, watch this film and see what you think. OK, from here onwards is just padding as it seems one needs ten lines of text to get a review published. Why is this I wonder? There is only a small cast but each actor performs flawlessly ( is that how flawlessly is spelt? ) and the location and sets are wonderful shot in the early fall I suspect as the foliage is taking on lovely autumnal hues. Jeez I am really beginning to struggle for words now, all I wanted to do was write a couple of lines in praise of this underrated film and I end up having to wear my fingers to stumps trying to get to the magical ten lines, ahh it seems we are have achieved the rquired number of words so goodbye and happy viewing.

Well, I just finished this movie. It's interesting but my Summary pretty much says it all. I put off watching it because I thought it had Stephen Dorff (the hot one) and not Brad Dourif (voice of Chuckie). I think you have to be from the south and/or understand a southern mentality to kind of appreciate the disturbing mental drain that is played out in the movie. There is a great deal about the plot that is very messy and oddly placed. I mean honestly it reminds me of the old series Tales from the Crypt. It isn't really SCARY as I thought it would be. It's more drawn out and disturbing more so than anything else. It was shocking to think that the soft male lead is that long-haired pot smoker in the TV series Mom. Wow he went from twink to stud! You probably should skip this movie unless you are looking for a take on a ghost story meets Romeo and Juliet meets some strange bits of supernatural incest. It would have been better if they had cut out most of the actors/scenes and spent more time building Amanda's back story.

I loved this movie and that is more than I can say for 99% of the horror/supernatural movies I have seen on Netflix. Last Kind Words is the kind of movie that leaves you feeling a little dead inside when it's over(pun intended) but in a way that is both stunning and haunting. The story is simple yet effective and allows this movie to entertain and scare without having to be cliché, overly gory, or loaded with special effects. I went into this movie expecting very little and got way more than I bargained for. I will not sit here and tell you this is the best movie I have ever seen or even that of its genre but I can tell you if you watch this movie you will not be disappointed.
