Sensored (2009)

Just perfect...

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

What an uneventful little film this was. I admit that the plot description makes it sound interesting, but in execution it's just yet another 'torture porn' spin-off from either SAW or HOSTEL, featuring people being tied up and tortured by a psycho. You have to feel for former STAR TREK actor Robert Picardo, being caught up in such a cheap and uneventful movie.I do enjoy B-movies as long as they're interesting, but SENSORED never is. The whole story is told in flashback with a twist or two that will be obvious from the outset. It's dim, murky, and exceptionally non-entertaining, with half the soundtrack just consisting of people screaming throughout. You just don't care about the characters despite the twists and turns of the plotting, which makes this a chore to sit through.

A middle aged man tells the tale of his evil doings, and then someone else tells us what it's really all about.Very well shot and directed, and the actors all give good performances. You can spot early on the trick that's being played, but it gives no idea where it's headed, so all the surreal scenes that follow demand full concentration to figure out the direction of play.But there's no real direction, because it's just one long flashback on a fantasy world. The hero does decide to change, but there's nothing fundamental about it, nothing in the drama that makes it click. I found it unresolved, and felt confused over the distinction he draws between Amanda and Gail - I know Amanda was a character, but I couldn't figure out who she was, and I guess there's a play on the name. Then there's the walk-away ending, with no satisfaction.It's engaging, but not the full shilling. I see both director and writer got into TV after this.

Saw this movie over a week ago and trying to remember what I saw for the review here :p A pretty interesting movie really, frankly I didn't have any expectation when it began with the boring scene of a children's book illustrator Wade(Robert Picardo) sharing his thoughts to us while looking out a window.As the movie progressed, it got tense more and more. There are lot of shocking scenes which could recoil your senses but nothing as graphically violent like that in Saw or Hostel. Its kinda subdued like the character Wade himself :) The story is unpredictable and the ending is very different from what you'd naturally guess. Good direction & music but the performances are classy. Robert Picardo as Wade and David Fine as Jefferies(Wade's 'dad') outshine each other. Sarah Knowlton as Gail(Wade's lonely, vulnerable neighbor) gets it just right.Some of the scenes are slow & boring and most of the time there's lot of conversation happening between two characters which can put off lot of viewers interested in instant adrenaline rush or quick turn of events.Verdict: Interesting One-Time Watch. For your senses :)

I just saw this movie at the Sacramento Film Festival and I must say that I really enjoyed it. I think I went through every emotion at least once. Brian Hamm, director of photography did a phenomenal job. Robert Picardo played an excellent role. Great job on the script by Kevin Haskin. I believe this was Ryan Todds first time directing a feature length film and he did not disappoint! I heard this movie was shot in about three weeks, thats amazing! I'm really looking forward to the DVD release to get a peek at the behind the scenes footage. From the Q and A session that the cast did last night, it sounds like the art/set team section is going to be really good. I definitely recommend you see this movie.
