Review of Life (2017) by Nick H — 30 Jun 2017

Strong acting, convincing effects, and a smooth-flowing story line are definitely covered in this film, but the excessively grim plot left even my husband--who typically prefers gritty, darker story lines--feeling dissatisfied. This is not the movie the watch if you are the kind of person who (like me) needs some shred of hope or optimism in a plot, or at least who wants to walk away from the movie without feeling completely depressed and hopeless about life.

The movie was certainly well made, but even so, it's not one I'll ever watch again.
