Take Shelter (2011)
5/10
I don't get the praise
19 June 2017
This movie was a boring one, despite the fact that it was well done. The action moves at a snail pace and it involves very bland characters, and if it wasn't for the deaf daughter would have been even worse. The movie is not saved despite its decent acting, very good cinematography and a good dose of realism. As an art flick it may have pleased some but personally I found it extremely unsatisfying and I only watched it to the end because I was curios how will happen, which in one word would be: disappointing. It made me strongly feel that I wasted 2 hours of my time. I would admit, though, that I don't seek for art in a movie, I seek entertainment, excitement, an original idea, some remarkable achievements. Nothing of such and when it comes to the idea, to me it seemed and redoux and modern version of Noah story. I was fooled into watching by the praise ad overrating of this movie.
