Pretty Good

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

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.

I don't think it was a waste of time and i don't think it seemed as low budget as some imply. I thought it was scary and made me jump. I also didn't mind the found footage, I like perspective it gives the viewer. But I didn't realize it was an alien flick. I'm not a fan. And I totally hate when an animal dies. I think it adds nothing to a movie.

This movie is not as bad as some of the reviews indicate. The acting is not great but not terrible either. The actors were believable. I kept yelling "Don't go into the woods at night Dumb Ass!" because I was really into the movie by then. Low budget but still well done. Entertaining and suspenseful.There is a little "Blair Witch" flavor to it.Good story. Great special effects.I had never heard of this movie so I didn't know what to expect from it. But I can tell you I wasn't disappointed.

The movie's poster/cover was what initially lured me in, because it was definitely an interesting design. And I do enjoy horror movies quite a lot, so it took very little convincing to get me to sit down to watch "The Gracefield Incident".I must admit that the storyline told in "The Gracefield Incident" was rather intense. So writer Mathieu Ratthe really managed to put together something quite interesting. And I will say that as a director then Mathieu Ratthe was also quite adept at keeping the audience in the dark as to what was actually going on throughout the course of the movie.The creature design was rather impressive and believable, which really worked in favor of the movie. Because having a movie as intense and suspenseful as "The Gracefield Incident" turned out to be, then having less than adequate creatures would be a fatal flaw once unleashed on the screen.The acting in the movie was quite good, and the actors and actresses had a lot of weight riding on their shoulders, as the cast ensemble was rather small. So everyone had to perform quite well to carry the movie, and luckily they did.One thing that stuck out like a sore thumb and a thing that I definitely didn't like, was the found footage approach that director and writer Mathieu Ratthe opted to go for with this movie. It was a real shame, because the shaky camera that is all over the place is so annoying and it takes away so much from the enjoyment of the movie for me."The Gracefield Incident" turned out to be a rather entertaining movie, but the found footage and shaky camera destroyed it for me. "The Gracefield Incident" could have been so much more if director and writer Mathieu Ratthe had opted to go for a regular movie format.

I have seen almost everything out there so every time I stumble on a new title, I want to be excited. I only read the good review on this one and the very beginning was promising. The acting, and I am not an actor but, it was really bad for the most part. I liked the premise, and the ending was a little corny and predictable, but I liked it. If the acting was better, this could have been really good.
