Crush

Could have been more suspenseful. Definitely watchable and good little twist.

crush 2013 is a project that looks quite old fashioned or in other words dated so much i don't know why it has that feeling to it that seems like it was filmed so many years back. the cast got some Irish and American young actresses showcasing their talent on a muddled script. story: few young women are after an athlete and one of them got a crush on him and goes too far in destroying anyone in her path. now here is the problem with this film forget the women but the guy is a coward in other words he is not man enough period to deserve any woman there you go i said it,why because such protagonists with zero common sense should be killed off immediately our hero is dumb to the point that he can't even make choices and gets easily distracted. now here is the funny situation when the guy gets captured this crazy mad girl keeps on torturing him the scene should make the viewer creep out but no it tries too hard to mix the horror genre in it and failing hard hey i was laughing through that screaming and bad acting. there are plenty of films like this made on this topic before this what was the reason to make this film is to showcase is maybe just maybe that makers want to give the kind of wrong message out there is that if women become strong enough they should be assumed evil now what the hell does this mean hey i am not just making this up watch this film guys and you will see so many hidden messages in it. men and women are equals both are humans but is the level or degree of stupidity the same too hell no there is plenty of dialogs here that proves brainless people make anything these days and sad part is it sells. crush 2013 just took itself way too seriously like some Wes Craven film. so beware young school kids out there make sure whoever you fall in love with or vise versa must not have a face-book account. films like these released today totally apes those a grade Hollywood 80s and 90s hits like fatal attraction or for more examples let us take the soft core films of 90s like the ones with Shannon Tweed etc. overall crush 2013 is a half good half bad below average teenage flick that you might like only if you want some intentional comedy my rating is 3/10.

From the subject matter and title you'd expect it to be formula and clichéd but it turned out to have quite an unexpected and interesting story. Plus the cast is good. Crystal Reed of Teen Wolf who I thought was too pretty to be the crusher is quite good at acting plain. Lucas Till of X Men First Class is well cast as the object of her affection. For this type of teen thriller the characters are not one dimensional. Good lesson about appearances and stereotypes, and not rushing to conclusions. Also that there are there are different degrees of crushes from harmless to not so. There is a twist that is actually a feel good twist about who is the that makes sense. There aren't any red herrings that are left unanswered and bug one after the movie. Liked the conclusion - things work out in a satisfying which is rare in this kind of thriller which usually is good only until the predictable twist. The directing is good to no silly shock tactics. Worth a watch it's better than some more widely released thrillers of this type.

"Crush" actually turned out to be a decent movie. If the acting would of been better, especially by main character Crystal Reed,then this would probably have been a hidden gem. "Crush" has pretty good twist that I didn't see coming. But I thought came a little to early, or the movie took to long to end after it.(For the record I didn't pay much attention to the movie case or movie itself but don't look or pay much attention to it, which is why I put spoiler alert as it gives the movie away pretty much. For the record I don't like giving spoiler alerts just for the fact, WATCH the movie yourself!) This is a low budget "Swim Fan" but with a nice twist, reasoning for the 5 stars out of 10. RENT IT

I was pleasantly surprised with this movie. It is very effective in creating a suspenseful thriller vibe. Throughout the entire movie you will be continually guessing who the crazy one is. Or maybe it's not as simple as that. One thing I know for sure is that apparently it sucks to be the school sports star. The movie is full of talented young actors who have lots of potential and manage to shine in a low budget film. They have put everything into their characters that it feels completely plausible. It's creepy to think that this sort of situation hasn't happened more often. If you have considered watching this movie then take the plunge. It is totally worth it.

I have to admit, the movie did surprise me more than I thought it would. And it's not only in the title and what it means to one (or more) of the character(s) in the movie. It's also the story and the character arcs themselves. There are things that are obvious and then there are things that aren't. It's for the viewer to decide, what is obvious and if it actually is that obvious and what that would mean. Sounds complicated? It isn't and the movie actually does more than a decent job telling a story, even if let's say you know where this is going (for whatever reason). There might even be room for a repeat viewing. If you don't expect much ... you'll get a lot

Wasted my time watching this one. Couple unexpected moments but nothing out of the ordinary. Watch at your own risk. Gave a 2 just for the last half hour twist.

Scott is a lucky guy, he's good looking, smart, popular and he plays in the high school football team. He dates Jules a cute girl and she likes him but he says that it will be better if they just remain friends. Bess is exactly the opposite of him, she is shy, new in town and uncommunicative. After bumping each other one day by mistake when Scott is jogging, it appears that a tender moment is happening between them. Since then Jess receives some weird messages witch says that to leave Scoot alone. Both Jules and Scott believe that Bess is the one who is doing this because she has a crush for Scott and now he must confront her in order to stop with these treats. I think that this movie is a mixture between Misery and Obsessed but regarding the capabilities of the actors and the fact that they are all young I could say it came up pretty well and has a twist that could fool many of us including myself. So give it a chance.

I regret squandering one and a half hour on this film: it is a great disappointment. The professional movie editing, camera angle, acting and background development can't salvage the horrifying script. It simply lacks complexity, surprises and smoothness. The movie, in my opinion, is much fragmented. Even though there are clear connections between scenes and parts of the plot, they are either clumsily put together or very forced. I didn't get frightened at all while watching the movie. And when it is unravelled who is responsible for the awesome stalking, the audience must find it extremely effortless to guess what ensues. The predictability, sadly, deteriorates this already crummy film.

FINALLY ...a movie that does not have cussing and nudity, is still a thriller and WOW ...I still watched it regardless of it missing those things! KUDOS to the film makers of this movie for avoiding such things, as it proves that it is not necessary to have in order to have a decent film. People will still watch regardless. Even though this film is not the best of the best, it is still worth watching. It was a tad bit slow-go, but enough to keep me watching and interested. It did have a twist in the end, but didn't leave you hanging, which a lot of these types of movies do. So I really liked that, as well! BONUS!
