Hospitality (2018) User Reviews

I actually quite enjoyed it

[omendata · 5/10 · 8 December 2018]

Yes its a basic story but the acting contrary to the other reviewers was pretty good especially from JR Bourne who I immediately remember played Martuf in Stargate Atlantis and the female lead was also very competent (Kinda reminded me a bit of Ripley) and probably the strongest character in the whole story.

Yes it will pass a night, its not Citizen Kane nor does it pretend to be. Competent and worth a watch compared to some of the drivel I have seen lately.

a sad story,really

Hospitality is kinda low budget,small cast,one location,bad sound,photo,edit and music. there are far too muh dialouges instead of true action and suspence that you really expect from a socalled thriller, a thumb up for the main actress,have seen her before ,shes good looking for sure. i will dwell over the subject of photography. im not a media guy,but over the years ive come to the conclusion that a clear and bright image is a cheap image,and thats an amateuristic blunder aka hospitality. a truly, well-made filmproduct shal have blurry backgrounds when shooting facial images within the comfort zone. it shall put the important person or item in focus, not mingle it with the background. so all newbies,keep the clear shots to to scenic beauty. also the camera motion are important.in this film they have a group dialouge,and drives the cam around the table 3 times with clear bakcgrounds and a squealing rabbit are tortured afterwards,terrible'... use the scissors like to good old editors did in 1910 its a film screaming davai,davai, so if you shall watch on the tv scroll through first,and watch later. as the''nah...-man'' i will not recommend it as a thriller....

Pretty good

Entertaining and fun. Worth a watch.

You are expecting trouble and violence as the tagline suggests but you start off not really sure where its going to come from. Takes some character development and backstory which leads to a character driven plot. Nice film.

Not bad at all !

It is one of those movies which is surprisingly good to watch. Cannot label it a guilty pleasure but a genuinely watchable movie.

The story has enough twists and turns to keep you interested. Even though the direction feels slightly amateur the movie is - I'm saying it for the third time now - pretty good.

The main actress is beautiful, acts well and has a few sex scenes so there you have it ! She was a major reason why I liked this movie.

Personally I didn't feel bored for one second. The movie is also not that long and I was genuinely pleasently surprised how good and entertaining this movie turned out to be.

This film has every emotion

Saw this on Prime and decided to give it a shot - glad I did.

I was expecting it to be a modern slasher/thriller, but it plays more as a modern noir. The character development is very good with each having their own distinct personality and you can't quite figure it out. They leave you with different emotions as their motivations and true colors come out.

The most enjoyable part of the film was as it intensifies it throws in humor, which is a nice overlay.

Acting was particularly good and the dialogue, score and violence give it a Tarantino like feel, but a bit more dialed down.

Overall 8/10.

I liked it!

I wasn't sure if I was going to like it, but immediately was intrigued after the quirky start and the "rewind" of the Sheriff.

The movie has some great dialogue. Dialogue that isn't incredibly exciting for a movie, but dialogue that sounds like real conversation. Within the dialogue are quirks and jokes as well which are nice.

Once the action starts, it starts, and maintains its style.. The story isn't mind blowing by any means - its quite simple, but I think thats the point. Its about the people and the way it plays out that makes it fun.

Awesome Modern-day Noir

I loved this movie. It's a fun and unpredictable suspense filled thriller with great performances from a talented cast. The directing and writing are top notch.

Highly recommend!
