Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

salaheazy The first and the investigation with the fbi agents was good until the last 27min then everything goes wrong and what about the death of Kris

reb-warrior A bank robbery has taken place in a small town. The story is told backwards. So the beginning of the movie starts the next day after the robbery, Friday. By the time you get to the last day, which is Tuesday, it explains what is really going on. It's way more than just a bank robbery.I actually did figure this out by the middle of the third day. Pay attention to the clues, which includes the history of a certain event, notice the disposition of certain characters, plus it's styled sort of like Fargo.It's a well told thriller which is nicely layered with dark humor, history, clues, and quirky characters.If you like Fargo, Momento, Gone Girl, you'll probably really enjoy this.

blanche-2 "Shimmer Lake" is a very enjoyable dark comedy from Netflix.The story of a bank robbery is told backwards. When I started watching it, I thought it looked cheap. I don't think it cost a fortune. It concerns the local sheriff and his attempts to bring three bank robbers to justice - one of whom is his brother. The story goes in reverse day by day as we meet the different participants.I thought the dialogue was funny, the actors were fine, and while it will remind some people of Fargo, it's no Fargo though it is good. And I loved the way it was wrapped up at the end. Clever, funny, Netflix has redeemed itself after that awful thing Handsome.

glenalbyn If you loved Fargo, either the movie or the brilliant TV series, you will really like this movie. The writing is sly, clever, and funny in the midst of a tale of a small town bank heist by the gang who couldn't think straight. If the story had played out in time order, it might have been ordinary. But because the tale is told in reverse, stepping back one day at a time, the mystery builds in a way that I bet you won't see coming.Even so, Shimmer Lake is more about the characters and what drives them than about the storyline. Other reviewers here have complained that they couldn't follow the story. I say: just focus on the characters and how they are toward each other to pick up clues along the way. I'm going back for a second viewing now with that in mind.
