Review of Burn

Burn (III) (2019)
5/10
Quirky low budget fare
27 December 2021
Warning: Spoilers
A quirky low budget fare that finds a way to keep your interest mainly through the performance of Tilda Cobham-Hervey. The script, while underwhelming, was able to build up enough suspense to keep things interesting even as it became less and less believable.

And when I mean unbelievable, I mean unbelievable. This movie is a little bit like driving past a car wreck in that you want to look away, but your curious enough to keeping looking.

Luckily it's a pretty short movie so I stuck around to see how it ended. I thought it was building up to some crazy ending but alas, what we got was very little other than her feeling like someone told her the truth for once.

BTW, if anyone can explain the "biker gang" angle and the scene where they show up and then just leave "to look around for their friend and then come back if they don't find him", please let me know.

This movie honestly had some potential if the writing was a bit better focusing on a "night getting out of control" aspect, but even the whole initial "hold up" was over written an unbelievable.

I'll give it 5 stars because I made it to the end and the fact it found a way to have some suspense even though you never really feel for the protagonist.
