Review of Blackwood

Blackwood (2014)
10/10
Back to the days of the great British suspense thriller
28 April 2014
I have been following this team since they made 'ROAR' and had been waiting for a full length production for a while. Could Mr Wimpenny & Co build their on their initial success? ...Well in short yes, and then some! "Blackwood" takes you back to the days of the great British suspense thriller. You know its coming but it still makes you jump. You know that the 'victim' will do something stupid but you still hear yourself saying noooooo, don't go in there!" – They still do! You know there has to be a twist, but you still won't see it coming - you then can't wait to watch the whole damn thing a second time to make sure that you didn't miss the obvious 'tells' and that the director didn't pull a fast-one – well I didn't and he doesn't...but you still won't see it until it unravels right in front of you. If you get the chance go and see Blackwood, it is an excellent story, wonderfully told and beautifully shot...you will be scared, you will jump, you will not see it coming and most importantly, you will not be disappointed...10/10
