Review of Undertow (2004) by Don S — 21 Aug 2016

Mostly pointless, depressing drama about how little family means to some members while still meaning thew world to others. Two brothers listen as their father and uncle fight over gold coins left to them both.

Dad ends up pushing up daisies, and uncle sets out to to get the boys - who took the coins - because they are the only witnesses who can tie him to the crime. The dialogue is delivered too slowly, giving the movie a stifled feeling.

Even Shiri Appleby, whose acting I really enjoy, was kinda just there in this movie. The ending is purposefully ambiguous. Not worth your time.
