Must See Movie...
best movie i've ever seen.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Interesting revenge movie with some unexpected twists in the end. Worth seeing once.
Quality movie!! Natalie Dormer is absolutely amazing and the plot twists will draw you in even more than it already accomplishes. This film deserves better than what it receives.....I guess people are to "blind" to see the greatness it is. I almost didn't watch it based on some reviews. Some people lack depth and imagination and shouldn't be allowed to comment. Fortunately the movie was both! Def worth a watch.
In her London apartment Sofia ( Natalie Dormer), a blind concert pianist, hears a commotion on the floor above her apartment and later discovers the woman Veronique (Emily Ratajkowski) who she barely knew either jumped or was pushed out of the window and died. The possible killer Marc (Ed Skrein) believes Sofia saw him, but learns later that she is blind, but he keeps an eye on her anyway. Why?I thought this would be a simple murder mystery, but I was wrong as there is a lot more to the story than meets the eye. There are a lot of twists and you have to keep up. But here are some clues anyway: Sofia had agreed to play for the father of Veronique and his name is Radic (Jan Bijvoet) a suspected war criminal during his time in Bosnia and allowed to stay safely in England. Detective Mills (Neil Maskell) simply doesn't believe that a blind woman with heightened senses for hearing cannot be of more help. Marc believes Veronique gave something to Sofia and he needs it to keep Radic safe. There are too may darkened scenes. Seems to be a thing for this type movie. Acting all around is good.Notables: Joly Richardson as Alex, Marc's sister; James Cosmo as Niall, the person who carried Sofia out of war torn Bosnia when she was a child. There is one very last twist and this is after all is said and done as Sofia walks away. (7/10)Violence: Yes. Sex: Yes. Nudity: Yes. Humor: No. Language: yes, but not much. Rating: B
Interesting idea, poor realization. Typical propaganda from the West regarding the war in Bosnia "for the war is the Serbs are guilty, only they committed crimes, the other participants in the war are innocent victims." In this war, all parties committed crimes, but only Serbian crimes are being spoken and emphasized.
