Review of Curve

Curve (2015)
8/10
A Fork, A Curve and A Killer
24 May 2020
😱First Impressions: I had this film in my library for a long time and as always- I skipped to catch glimpses and it just seemed like a boring film from the multitude of shots about a woman in a car. Boy, was I wrong!! Never should've picked up that hitchiker~

Pros: 😋 Resourcefulness; takes place in a crashed car for about 70% of the film. But with lighting and weather changes, easily overlooked.

😋 Two main characters are very believable and well acted (though I thought the guy was slightly off in the beginning).

😋 Satisfying end

Cons: 😪 Not much character development beyond the beginning portions..

😪 Could have been much scarier but I guess that's not the antagonist's style

😪 Does Mallory decide to go on with the wedding?

😇 Verdict 😈 Lets be clear on one thing- the film is rather low budget but I'd like to think that the premise was due to a creative set up rather than a financial one. Well made and strong leads. Curve is above that of an average thriller~
