Title: Horrible. Told me nothing.
Review: The movie poster outside my theater had so many good comments about In The Bedroom, which is why I went to go see it. Were they seeing the same movie I saw?While the events and the characters were realistic, the flat plot didn't make for a good movie. (And I don't think the trailer portrayed the film accurately.) I wished I got my money and time back!Yes, a murder tears the loved ones apart.Yes, it's not a typical subject.Yes, I saw the subtext (what was not said supposedly spoke volumes) and it STILL did not carry the movie.No, the film wasn't particularly dark. Also, other movies that showed degradation of the character(s) were more interesting than this one.In the end, I was left thinking, "So what?" Again, this movie said nothing to me.All I can probably suggest if you're still interested in seeing it is to wait until it comes out in the movie channels or somebody rents it and you'll end up seeing it for free.
Is the review positive or negative?
