This independent family drama was very abrasive, upfront and confrontational. "The Vicious Kind" displayed writing that at times was shoddy, uneven performances and emotional stakes that were desperately unconvincing.

But with that said, I actually enjoyed the unique subject matter, the forward characters and the overall feel of the film. I feel like a monumental improvement could've been achieved with a few more takes, sharper editing and a more thoroughly refined script.

These errors weren't fatal, but unfortunately left the film as just average.
