Teddy Boy (2015)
4/10
The lack of tension was palpable.

This could not possible be the award winning psychological thriller touted in the reviews. The acting was so stilted I thought I had accidentally tripped on a Lifetime installment. I stopped the movie, quit the app, restart, click....same movie. I hunkered down; after all some movies are slow to start. 40 minutes in, I still had no connection to the characters - or the camera angles. I stopped the film to go do something else. And on again ... 30 minutes to go and finally I see some real anxiety in the characters, some real pathos, some real...something.

I gave this movie four stars based on the last 30 minutes of the film.

I don't think the movie was bad, I think the description was misleading.
