German thriller about a mysterious isolation in a house — featuring the stars of "Army of Thieves" and "Polar".
It reminded me of Cloverfil-10 on Vibe. But only in this movie you don't worry about the characters, no one catches on. Even a grandfather who died accidentally and his suffering granddaughter. And it's not even about the bad acting, the actors were on the level. There was just something missing. Either more drama, or more disclosure of the story of these characters. There seems to be an intrigue in the film, but it doesn't seem to be quite interesting what they are doing there in the frame. I watched it only to find out where this wall came from and why. And it's really been told! And they didn't leave us to figure it out for ourselves.
And here, my review changes shoes on the go, because the idea of a "wall" is really interesting. I even put my phone down and didn't take my eyes off the screen. The development of the story about her begins somewhere after the first hour.
I won't spoil it, but I will say that I am grateful that the wall has not a magical and fantastic origin, but a very real one.
BE CAREFUL THERE ARE SPOILERS THAT CAN REALLY RUIN THE IMPRESSION, READ THE TEXT AFTER WATCHING.
That's just what I didn't understand, if this wall is a protective structure (even if it was activated by accident this time), then why is the telephone connection and TV blocked inside? I think people, in case of an emergency, would like to be aware of what is happening, and not sit stupidly in isolation. Or was the connection cut off by that half-witted Yuri? And what should people eat and drink inside the wall if we were shown that the water supply was turned off?
Conclusion: it's worth waiting an hour to get an interesting ending and a rather unexpected ending!
@an_khv: Oh, and maybe I can answer the spoiler question here). The fact is that the wall here was declared as protection from everything. Including electromagnetic and nuclear weapons. Both, when activated, give a powerful impulse that destroys electronics. That's what protection is against, and therefore blocking communication. Alas, one thing is impossible without the other. It's more complicated about water, but it's more likely that the pipe wall has blocked it. Disadvantages of insulation.
@Hidji: Okay, I agree with you) but the food? I think it's a blunder, and a hard one))
@an_khv: Well, I'm sorry, but we have one caveat: this is an unexpected trigger as a result of a fire. Not everything has been calculated yet.
@Hidji: how do you write these spoilers???
having an interesting plot and development, the film keeps you in psychological tension and in the interest of finding out how it will all end.
a good option for the evening. Yes, there are mistakes and moments where you want to find fault. but it's really worth taking a look and thinking about the "wall" phenomenon.
I hope the main characters won't be put on the wanted list when they find a house full of corpses.
I liked the movie, but the ending could have been modified a little.
