Fake reviews

Warning: Spoilers
The reviews on here as well as on Prime are artificially high. The movie is not an interesting new concept, we are already familiar with reality shows, and the premise of this show is pretty basic compared to what we are already familiar with on TV today. There is no surprising twist at the end as one reviewer says.

No real plot - Starts off slow, middle of movie gets slightly better, ending boring
pipo-17 May 2019
Warning: Spoilers
To be honest this movie has been done numerous times and while it was watchable their voices started getting annoying after awhile, and the soundtrack was terrible (we don't need to hear the FULL song, I almost shut if off in the first 10 minutes).

This movie barely has a plot, they go on a reality tv show follow some GPS coordinates till they reach the end, (well it asks them to keep going), anyways they quit and follow the GPS coordinates back to the car - yeah that's it, then some homemade footage at the end how they became super celebrities promoting the show or some bs --boooring just shows how they are still scam artists they almost die in the desert but still promote the show at the end, yeah great people they are...

anyways got good in the middle but quickly took a downhill turn when they quit the game, would of been better if they kept playing and got more lost and gps failed or something...

anyways I rate this at a 3/10.

Meh

They tried to do something different but ended up doing something so different I got lost. The beginning got me hooked, the middle act got me really into it and then it dropped off. Would have been interesting to see what would have happened if they kept going and that would have made the real difference. Would not recommend or watch again.

Great, simple concept to this film that made me focus on the characters and the suspense. I thought it was thrilling, the characters were well developed, and I wished there had been more!

Gripping and good
clifford-jackie-jackie28 October 2018
I truly enjoyed "At Your Own Risk"... The movie was a thriller and had me on the edge of my seat. Also, as a woman I could really appreciate that the leads were women who had more to talk about than just men. There's a surprising twist at the end of the movie. I highly recommend.

Great Movie!
happybuddha0128 October 2018
I loved the concept of "At Your Own Risk", the cinematography was wicked and cannot believe they did this on zero budget. How rad is it to see a film in 2018 that has no special effects & just a great idea thats fun, exciting and well acted. I enjoyed it from start to finish and think you'll enjoy it too!

Great watch with an innovative story!
laura-e-hunter28 October 2018
This is a fun indie film that focuses on the friendship between two women in the midst of a mysterious situation. Great camerawork and some stunning drone shots in the desert. I've had a few geocaching experiences myself, and I love that this film incorporates that concept.

I really enjoyed both of the lead actresses' performances, and love seeing such a strong story about female friendship. Would make a great rental for a girl's night in!

Strong Plot! Beautiful Cinematograohy!
burstproductions-128 October 2018
This film kept me captivated to the end. I became invested in the two female leads and how each would handle the challenges they found themselves in.

The cinematography is beautiful, the desert is really a character in and of itself!

I never expected that ending!!

Strong, maybe "Futuristic" Message. Maybe Today!
michaelj-310151 November 2018
As of my review, men have given this movie an average rating of 3.6 and women have given an average rating of 8.0.

That blows my mind!

This is NOT a "Chick Flick". It is a movie that actually has a message that is responsive to our society today and might just portend a future that we humans just might not like.

That being said, The ONLY reason to not watch this movie is if you've been abducted by Giants AND they don't have iTunes, Amazon, or some other modern technology. Seriously!

At Your Own Risk is intriguing from start to finish and draws you in from the very first scene (WITH NO WORDS). The fact that there is a tiny cast has NO bearing on the hugeness of the overall movie and the theme.

I can't say much about the plot because I don't want to give away the surprise ending. That's not to say that there aren't surprises in the beginning and middle.

Here's what I WILL say... "I don't think you want to be in Taylor and/or Ang's shoes." However, there are times in the movie that you can and will empathize with both of them. The real question in the end is, "which one of them is YOU?"

I loved the overall concept and I could easily see a follow up that explores Taylor and Ang's relationship as they continue with their lives; such as they will be after the surprise ending.

The only reason I gave it a 9 instead of a 10 was because of the squeaking tin cup as they walk thru the desert. I know. It's a little thing, but I couldn't stop hearing it. LOL

I'm looking forward to a sequel.

Great film!
stephaniekross29 October 2018
"At your own risk" is an interesting film following the struggles of two business women who have been caught in a geocaching scheme. It is a film showcasing friendship, adventure, and forgiveness. I love that there are two female powerhouses leading us into this escapade. I can't believe that this was a low budget film. The cinematography was brilliant! Thanks for the show!

Really enjoyed this movie! The music is incredible, and the story held my attention the entire time with great twists and turns. I did NOT see that ending coming! Great cinematography, acting, and storyline. Well done!

It's unbelievable that this was made with only 4 people
tim-600-6389587 November 2018
At Your Own Risk was truly a fascinating achievement. Low budget films usually feel "low budget" and this one did not at any moment. Don't get me wrong, it has its faults, like all films, but it was very entertaining- as movies should be. Congratulations to the cast/crew on making something special and can't wait to see their next venture.

Interesting movie, its surroundings, the suspense that it incites, the actresses, and above all the passion and desire with which it was made.

At My Own Enjoyment
ross_7075 November 2018
This film utilizes the same type of efficient and engaging storytelling that made indie films so compelling in the first place. The characters, story, and visuals fill the screen, meaning no wasted space OR wasted time. Highly recommended.
