Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Wordiezett So much average

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Tammy Milo I have never been more captivated by a movie in my life and I think this is one of the most outstanding films I have ever seen. Sadly for many people, it will go unnoticed. The casting is genius! <-- hard to believe since I've never seen or heard of any of the actors before. And with no visual effects and only 4 characters throughout the entire film - it deserves all 10 stars. I don't even think a bigger budget would add to or could expand on the film's brilliance. The storyline in itself is 10 out of 10.Regarding the genre I'd say it's a thriller, but it's not. But it kind of is. It's also a drama. It takes you on a journey of self discovery and really makes your brain tick well after the movie has ended. It might even cause you to shift your perspective on things in your own life. It's also about coming to a crossroads in your life. It's about fear. It's about choices. It's a must see!

Colin Smith ***This review may contain spoilers***The direction and performances in Leave are terrific, even though the underlying premise of the film isn't particularly original. More seasoned viewers may recognize elements from such films as An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge or Jacob's Ladder, where the entire narrative is essentially a waking dream/nightmare or hallucination in the mind of a character who is dying or about to die.But the issue here isn't one of originality. "We tell ourselves stories in order to live," Joan Didion famously said. But we can also tell ourselves stories in order to learn how to die. It may be a story we've heard before, but that doesn't necessarily make it any less powerful.So while I suspected Leave was moving in a (to me) somewhat familiar direction, I found the cumulative effect of the film overwhelming. As both a medical professional and as a private person, I have had to deal with the reality of losing patients and loved ones. But each passing is its own unique journey. Even through great suffering, some do not want to let go---they cling fiercely to what's left of their lives. Who can blame them? But there comes a time when all of us must say goodbye, yet when and how we finally choose to say it is a process as complex as it is unpredictable. Leave asks us to bear witness to one man's coming to terms with this inevitability.I suppose there are people who are made angry or afraid by films that touch them at this primal, emotionally raw level, but essentially they're cutting themselves off from some of the greatest dramas ever written. They should probably stick with safe, unchallenging fare--loud, empty toys like the latest Transformers iteration or paint-by-numbers rom-com. Some can live on a diet of popcorn and little else. Meanwhile, some of us will continue seeking out films such as Leave, which aren't afraid to ask the (literally) ultimate questions that all of us as human beings will eventually have to face.

bizerk88 I started watching this movie expecting a (hopefully) exciting and/or scary movie, however I was sadly mistaken! This movie is extremely slow, weird, confusing and not entertaining. The ending is silly, incomplete and abrupt. I wish I could get back the time that was wasted from my life by watching this movie!!! If you have the opportunity *not* to watch this movie, DO NOT WATCH IT! A guest brought it over to my house so it would have been rude to turn it off otherwise I would have turned this garbage off less than 5 minutes in.Also Bryan Cranston is in this film for less than a few minutes in one scene, I cannot believe they put him as the top actor on here and on the cover of the film! Extremely deceiving movie, it is not good!

Deepack As the ending credits began to roll on LEAVE, I sat there in stunned silence. Overwhelmed by the story that had just unfolded in front of me. The storyline, though gripping and thrilling from beginning to end, was only one part of this movie. Like a single actor delivering their lines. Director Robert Celestino brought me so deep and immersed into this tale, that the journey became personal and it became mine. Stand out performances by Rick Gomez as our troubled writer and Frank John Hughes as the mysterious stranger who enters his world, had me on edge throughout the entire picture. However, it was the cinematography and most importantly the sound that were the real feature stars of this film. Together, they knitted a subconscious fabric throughout the movie, which was so subliminal, that every scene, no matter how benign, still had me feeling a sense of ominous terror. Bringing all of these elements together and delivering a stunning payoff at the end, made this film a terrific, yet terrifying treat. LEAVE is a film that crosses the line from story telling to cinematic experience. Few films have the dramatic power to do that, but LEAVE, will stay with you long after the credits have rolled.
