Whew! That was extremely boring. Weirdness is not enough to sustain a film, to hold a viewer's interest. I foolishly rented this because of Kristoffer Joner who it turns out is only a fleeting and misleading presence. If you haven't watched it yet, save your hour and a half and do something more productive.

Movies like this are not made that often these days. When it comes to thrillers, its all about CGI effects, nudity and extreme violence. If that's your type of thing, then Bad Faith is definitely not for you. However, if you love slow burning, atmospheric, throw backs to Alfred Hitchcock and Roman Polansky, then Bad Faith is something that will take your interest.
It has a very strange feel to it, but that plays into its favour because the unoriginal story is glossed over by the unusual camera angles and dark environment. You are never quite sure where the director will take you, and although the ending was a bit of a letdown, it still left a rewarding taste in the mouth.
The biggest problem with the film isn't the movie itself, but the type of movie it is. People with low attention spans will overlook this movie, because it substitutes explosions with thinking, but if you appreciate that kind of thing, then Bad Faith should please you.

Very good, requires patience.

Faith - morally speaking

I understand that some did not like this at all. It seems that not much is happening in the movie. It is as some like to say a slow burn thriller. One with a female main character, who is quite weird to say the least and can not be considered a "hero" - at least not classically speaking.
The movie is quite well done overall, it will come done to what you like in a thriller or not. The acting is also more than decent, with some recognizable faces (watched Quake before this, but even if not, some faces you kind of can't forget, once you've seen them). Strange ending to it, but very fitting if you think about it ...
