This is a strange one - the trailer looked pretty unnerving - but the finished film is deathly tedious. The director manages to concoct not a single scrap of excitement or fear from the horrific scenario. The editing is slow to the point of being soporific. There was simply no tension or thrills - just a long drawn out pointless escapade. The whole premise is scientifically ignorant - indeed comically stupid. As are the digital FX of The Rupture. The plot is fatally flawed in that for the vast majority of the film, the viewer has NO clue as to what is going on - just like the protagonist (well played by Noomi Rapace I guess - but all she does is lie flat on a table looking worried or crawl through a vent) - and so dramatically, the entire movie flatlines as the viewer is kept guessing as to the point of the whole thing to the point of tedious distraction. When the explanation comes - it's cheap and stupid. Avoid.

I have to give this a ten, I thought this movie was going to be a hacked up job but it turns out it was the opposite to my assumptions. It is an Original movie! The script is flawless. You can tell whoever worked on this worked extremely hard in correcting any errors they have had experienced in the past. The scores of music in this movie are original and worth the watch to hear them. I want to congratulate the Director "Steven Shainburg" for making an Original worth watching. I honestly do not watch these type of movies but this one kept me at the slightest edge of my seat. "Brian Nelson" had a long tedious job while doing the screenplay and I got ya man it is no easy work but I got ya, great job on the screenplay it kept me interested and that is all it mattered. I can tell how the director picked out these producers that were knowledgeable in the medicine field or can we say the art of medicine, some of them may have had experience in producing a hospital sitcom. overall I am expecting a sequel.

'RUPTURE': Three and a Half Stars (Out of Five) A psychological horror flick directed by Steven Shainberg (who also helmed the 2002 cult classic 'SECRETARY') and written by Shainberg and Brian Nelson (who also wrote the 2005 cult classic 'HARD CANDY'). It stars Noomi Rapace as a single mother that's abducted by a mysterious organization, and then subjected to severe fear-inducing torture as part of some secret experiment. The film also costars Michael Chiklis, Peter Stormare and Kerry Bishe. It hasn't been well received by most viewers, or critics that have seen it, but I enjoyed it. Renee (Rapace) is a single mother struggling to deal with an abusive ex, who's also her son's father. After dropping the boy off at his dad's for the weekend, Renee is abducted (on the road after blowing a tire) by a secret organization. She's then taken to an unknown location, where she's injected with chemicals and subjected to torturous fear-inducing experiments. Renee encounters multiple other people being held there, who are also being subjected to the same horrendous experiments. When she's left alone, Renee breaks free of her bondage, and then begins sneaking around the location in an attempt to figure out what's really going on. The movie definitely has a cheesy B-horror movie feel to it, but I like that feel in films (if it's done well). This movie is really creepy, and effectively nightmarish to a certain extent. I always have to give those things credit. Rapace gives it her all in the lead (like always), and the supporting actors seem to be having a lot of fun with their creepy roles. It's definitely not an especially well made (or well written) movie, but it is fun and entertaining (in my opinion at least). If you like creepy bad B-horror flicks, I think you'll probably get a kick out of it (like I did). Watch our movie review show 'MOVIE TALK' at: https://youtu.be/K3Maw4akm_o

Firstly let me say that I watch hundreds of movies every year. I like to give any film the benefit of the doubt until the end. After resisting coming onto IMDb for so long, i had to join to let people know about this. Simply put... This is not a good movie, you should be going elsewhere. So many times during the plot I felt like the movie led me to believe it was about to kick up a notch from creepy music and promises, and then the lead actress just rolls over again and again and doesn't do anything. Just once she gets a bit of courage and does something brave, and this fizzles out too. The ending left me feeling really disappointed, as that is where they could have saved the movie with a bit of action. But it all built up to nothing at all. The actress was poor. The characters felt mismatched and unlikely. The acting was robotic. The plot twists were pointless and empty. The pseudo-science was not believable. The ending was flat. After watching this I think my worst fear that could cause me to evolve would be to sit through this movie on repeat in a room I couldn't get out of. That could possibly make me scream...

I thought it was good. A 4 really? What do people want out of a movie? It was unique, I've never seen anything like it and that's saying a lot right there. It stars the woman that played The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and her acting was more than adequate, she was believable and did a good job. The movie ties in current events and gives a credible explanation for some paranormal things that are going on in real life. It surpassed expectations, I was just looking for an abduction movie and it delivered mega mystery, a scifi spin at its finest to the level of twilight zone. I think people don't like it because it doesn't fit traditional happy endings. It only drags very slightly, many other higher ranking movies drag much more. It's not hokey, it doesn't resort to gore, and as I said its a unique believable twist. Refreshing worth the watch. Every bit as good as Arrival which did get an 8 !!!

Based on the screening at CIFF. A single mother (Noomi Rapace) is kidnapped by a mysterious group of individuals who subject her to a series of experiments designed to trigger her fear response. Managing to escape her bonds, she soon discovers that she is neither the first nor the only victim of her kidnappers, and in her quest to escape the compound where she is being held she discovers a plot that may have devastating consequences for the future of the human race. If you're looking for an action film that will keep you in a state of tension throughout, you've come to the right place. Rapace's character has a vulnerability that makes you root for her as she struggles through incredible odds to escape a seemingly impenetrable prison, interacts with other prisoners, and gradually discovers exactly why she was taken in the first place. Spoilers ahead... *** There are no happy endings here, folks. If you give this film a chance, though, you may find some food for thought on the nature of emotional bonds (genetic or learned) and how fragile they can be, especially when tampered with. While the body of the film concentrates on building tension, it's the conclusion that leaves the viewer genuinely disturbed. The one major criticism that I have? There is no way that Noomi Rapace's Scandinavian accent could ever be mistaken for French Canadian. Next time, filmmakers, just make her character Swedish, please?

... that turned into a full-length feature that somehow managed to snag a few high profile actors. Whoever decided to bankroll this production should've put their money into understanding scripts seeing as this barely had one. Poor direction overall, from the acting, to setting up scenes and pacing. The only thing that got me to finish watching was the mystery of it all which wasn't anything complex or special. If this had been a 20-30 minute student film or fully realized Twilight Zone episode, then sure, I can roll with that. Long story short (like the movie should have been), don't waste your time.

This is a totally spoiler free review because it's best to see this film without knowing what to expect. I watched this film with no expectations in mind at all, and i have found it watchable. Yes, it's nowhere near any of the best sci-fi movies, but it's an alright watch. The dialogue of the movie is kind of lame and that's the thing that bothered me, but when it comes to the pace of the movie it's really good, i can guarantee you will not be bored. As for the plot, it's intriguing and I can't say you haven't seen it before, but i found it OK. In the end, Rupture is a good watch at home when you have nothing to do and feeling like killing some time. Not great, not bad either, just mediocre.
