Lots of fake reviews on this one
Jblum515 September 2023
ReBroken tells the story of a man who is suffering grief and is spiraling out of control, and his grief counseling sessions which appear to have nefarious intentions.

I watched this movie for the same reason most people probably will- the incomparable Tobin Bell. However I left thinking why on earth would he agree to do this one? The story is cliche to no end (If I have to hear about following 'the path' one more time..) We are either in group therapy or at his home . No mention of a job or other activities to make this story feel alive. It is very psychological but not in a way that was interesting to me.

I typically don't go too hard on low budget films cause the act of getting a film made is so difficult. This site has many amazing reviews of this film. If you look they come from accounts that have either only reviewed this movie, or this movie and "the path " which also stars this movie's lead. It is deceitful and that isn't fair to dup people. Know what your getting: A cheap, cliche ridden drama with uneven acting and minimal suspense. It is a pass.

The Horror Label is a Misnomer
fatfil-414-45179730 May 2023
Going into this, I was hoping for an atmospheric, supernatural/ghost movie. It had been classified as a Horror movie in some forums, and being a sucker for that kind of thing I dived in. But classifying this movie is like trying to keep eels in a bucket. At it's core, it is a study in grief, loss and addiction, and for that it has a slight horror element. But the only real scary thing going on here is the all to familiar decline of a previously decent guy, through no real fault of his own {sort of} The acting is superb throughout, and the story slowly unravels its layers. It is not a movie for thrill seekers and gore hounds. It is a slow paced, thoughtful and absorbing film, and the pay off at the end is, perhaps a little predictable, but no less powerful.

Pleasantly surprised, not what I expected!
NEWYORK7518 March 2023
Pleasantly surprised, not what I expected! Most people write reviews to trash a film, but nothing to trash here. This film had a story I didn't see coming, nice plot twist. Watch and enjoy! If you are looking for something different and unique, give this a watch. Acting was good, has the main bad guy from Saw in it as well as the guy who lost his ear in Cobra Kai. I have to write more about the film for this post but I'm all out of what to say, LOL! Just wanted to say it was different, surprising, unique, cool, well made, acting was good and worth a watch if this is something you are looking for in a movie.

Didn't see the end coming!
williamku-408809 March 2023
So glad I found this movie. I watched this movie for Tobin Bell and was treated to a first rate thriller that was really an original. Grief, alcoholism, therapy and a missing daughter all made for an entertaining puzzle that I didn't see coming. Great performances lead by Scott Hamm Duenas and of course the great Tobin Bell. I really liked the story and the pacing as they didn't rush things. You try and try to figure out what's going on but never really can until of course the end where they tie it up nicely. Kudos to this film for keeping me guessing and interested for the entire 90 minutes. A solid 8 out of 10 for me.

Wildly entertaining
dgilleand9 March 2023
ReBroken is a great. It's one of those things I don't think I'd want to tell you too much about, in fear of spoiling everything about it. There's definitely more than meets the eye in this film, and what really keeps the intrigue going is the editing. Tobin Bell (Saw) is also in the film, portraying a smaller, yet vital role as a mysterious homeless man on the outskirts of town. It's amazing how small his roles can sometimes be, and yet still be something that's hard to forget.

Scott Hamm plays the grieving father in this film, and it's a combination of his own performance and the repetition of the editing that really helps sell the idea of what he's personally going through. He wants out of that cycle - and therapy isn't helping. So, he's considering alternative "cures", so to speak.

Definitely check it out. I found the entire film to be a lot of fun overall.

Good performances, good story, great ending
oliviaabuela5 April 2023
I was very impressed with this film. Yes it's a small independent movie but there was so much to like and it was very well done. I thought the cast was great and the direction was solid but what I liked most of all was the story. I was unable to figure out exactly what was going on until the very end when it wraps up and wraps up nicely. It moves a little slow at times but the pacing fits the tone of the movie and I never lost interest. Best of all it has a really nice pay off if you just stay with it. The lead actor was great and of course Tobin Bell was magnificent as always. I would very much recommend this movie. 8/10.

A Must Se
acsimms15 March 2023
Let me tell you, this movie is straight fire! It's got everything you could want - drama, heartache, and redemption. The story follows this young woman who goes through some tough times, but through it all, she learns the power of love and forgiveness.

The performances in "Rebroken" are next-level. The lead actress kills it with her raw and emotional portrayal, and the rest of the cast is just as impressive. And the cinematography? Man, don't even get me started - it's a work of art.

But what really sets "Rebroken" apart is its message of hope. It reminds us that even when life knocks us down, we can get back up and keep fighting. That's a lesson we all need to remember, especially in these crazy times.

So if you're looking for a movie that'll hit you right in the feels and leave you feeling inspired, then "Rebroken" is the one for you, my people. Trust me, you won't regret it.

Excellent Film
themiezgonis17 March 2023
This film is superb. Truly original storytelling, with genuinely surprising twists and turns. A lot of films stay in this safe, predictable formula, and ReBroken doesn't shy away from taking a risk and captivating the audience. I don't want to get into specifics so I don't spoil it, but aside from the story being really cool, the acting and cast are phenomenal. My husband, who doesn't watch a ton of movies because he has no attention span, was gripped the whole time. I highly recommend this film, it's amazing to see a smaller production make a movie that looks like it has a huge budget. Totally worth the watch!

A must see!
sagekoren6 April 2023
Truly such a great film that leaves you feeling like "woah." As soon as you think you've figured it out, you realize you don't at all, but in the best way! It's an emotional and heartbreaking story that leaves you wanting to hug your loved ones. Every one in the film plays their role so well, and has you feeling every kind of emotion. I highly recommend.

I'm not usually a fan of "scary" movies, but this is not like that at all. There aren't any cheap scares or overacting, it's just enough to keep you on the edge of your seat, without going over the top.

The story, the acting, the cinematography, everything is so well done.

you got me
zazzalir-440-21575613 March 2023
It's fun to see a smart thriller that actually pulls off some really clever twists. And you definitely don't see the big one coming. Well done.

I actually watched it a second time to see if I could see how they planted the seeds for the big reveal lol. Rebroken is just a really well constructed film. It's also got those creepy goosebump moments that make you love these movies. Good stuff.

Also I don't really get into opening credits for a movie but these were cool. You knew right away that you were in good hands with this movie. And then the rest of it delivered. It's definitely worth checking out.

Best Psychological Thriller of 2023
robolads11 March 2023
This is by far the best Psychological thriller I have seen this year. I came across it and decided to give it a shot after reading the summary of the film. If you are looking to be entertained give this film a shot! I really enjoyed the fact that I was constantly searching for answers and what would happen next. I was left wondering what was real and what wasn't, which is a must in a film like this. I relate it to Shutter Island with the mystery of wether something is truly happening or not. You will not be disappointed in this film I beg all who are curious to give this film a fair shot and share it with those who like psychological thrillers.

A must see if you like psychological thrillers
Itsmenityou7 April 2023
I really enjoyed this movie !! There was a Great twist at the end. I thought I had it figured out but I was shocked at the ending. This movie is Well acted and well written. I also feel like this is the kind of movie you watch a few times to really get all the details and twists that happen

I watched this with my 13 year old it's a good one to watch with the family. It's not scary but it's definitely thrilling and keeps you on your toes the whole time wondering exactly where the story is headed

I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel to tie up some loose ends in the storyline!!!

Don't try and figure it out because you won't, just go in with an open mind and enjoy where it takes you.
