What a Steaming Pile of Crap
If I could give this a ZERO I would!! ****SPOILERS AHEAD** **YOU ARE WARNED** If you go back and read all (6) reviews, apart from my own, 5 of them are CLEARLY written by the same person. The wording, the pacing and the style of language is all too familiar to not be by the same person. The "praise" given to this movie by the other reviews is the REASON I am reviewing this movie. So I am writing this to give an actual, fair review from someone who isn't associated with movie. __ I am into thrillers.. slow paced, horror movies are my favourite. So when Amazon Prime suggested this movie to me, I though- sure, why not? It starts off with the most UNBELIEVABLE poorly written, badly acted scene ever. It's worse then a B movie- because at least with B movies the actresses are good looking, and you know they are acting badly for fun. If I were "Claire's" boyfriend I would have cheated on her too.. she is boring, and I hate to say it, but really REALLY not good looking. I'm not saying that's a good reason to cheat on someone.. but we watch horror movies to be able to escape reality and look at pretty people.. it's nice to stare at gorgeous people for 2 hours, even if they end up being chopped up into tiny bits. "Claire" looks like a man in a wig, and that would be fine if at LEAST she could act- but nope.. she just sniffles for 2 hours and has fake "no tears" and somehow manages to pull stupid 101, by losing her phone within the first hour, doesn't buy a replacement, car breaks down..doesn't bother to call a car service.. just offends everyone in town, and happens to fall into the hands of a random serial killer? .. annnnd escapes with acid burned fingertips that disappear after about 2 minutes? Continuity is a huge fail in this movie.. which again, is forgivable in these type of movies if SOMEWHERE there could be some good acting, but Claire is seriously the worst "actor" I've ever seen, apart from the badly acted "sex scene" that replays and replays throughout the whole movie.. makes me wonder if anyone on that set has ever actually had sex before? I think they had an open-call for this movie and just hired the first 10 people to show up. Will not recommend this to anyone.. and will never re-watch.. I had to keep putting my hands over my eyes because of second-hand embarrassment. There are "indie" films..then there is this crap. 0/10
Strange movie
I'm used to watching poor acting as I watch a lot of B movies. However, I almost shut Rebound off after three minutes. The two girls at the kitchen table were horrible. Luckily, Ashley James (Claire) improved once she was outside the house. The storyline was meh, but I thought the pickpocket was a unique way to lose a cell phone. Not to mention Claire didn't trip and fall down, so that is a plus. ****SPOILER ALERT**** But why was this guy torturing her? Just a random town psycho? So creepy dude has tortured "lots of women", but the truck driver only checked on Claire and not one of the previous girls? The twisted ending did not fit Claire's personality. Sure, she was a doormat, but didn't she overcome that while she was being tortured? *END SPOILER* I mean really...reminded me of an old movie, Sweet Hostage, only SH made sense. I didn't hate this film. I was mostly annoyed with Claire's constant sniffing, ****SPOILER ALERT ****but what can a girl do when her hands have been disfigured with acid. (Btw, notice how her hands miraculously healed when she was slinging the sledgehammer?)
Slick indie horror/thriller
REBOUND is a slick little indie horror flick with a torture porn feel. The protagonist is a young woman who discovers - graphically - that her boyfriend is cheating on her, causing her to flee her life in order to begin a new one in another city. Unfortunately, en route she ends up being captured and held hostage by a regular psycho. This effort has pretty good production values and some gore, but it's also overly familiar and has little atmosphere to go along with the story.
Indy Horror - good
Right , I liked this ! A woman goes on a road journey to escape her past. And she meets deadbeat after deadbeat in outback America. Things go from bad to worse. Everyone is just horrid to her, and shes really quite a decent person , so she stands out as someone being wronged by life. Good lead actress , really good actually , never seen her before , great performance. It's grainy , desolate life of the outback America , the loserville areas which carry the story as our good woman comes into contact with these lost souls. I gotta give a heads up to the bar man in this film , if anyone sees it , check out his attitude problem , ha , he so needs a kick in for the way he treated her. I liked the main guy as well. Its weird story , a bit David lynch , carpenter type film .Yeah liked this film was cool. Ending was twisted in good way. I guess this was low budget so was good that the actors did a good job , class job , recommend !
Indie Thriller
First let me say that I love independent movies. They do stuff that you don't see in most studio films. They take changes (some good, others bad) and in a way are fearless. You just never know what you are going to get. "Rebound" is not your typical thriller by any means. The movie is an awesome character study of what can go wrong by being at the worse place at the wrong time. In the flick, Claire (Ashley James) needs to escape her current life- her man is cheating on her, she has a nervous breakdown. She needs a change, so she up and leaves it all. While on the road, something bad (very bad) happens and things only keep getting worse. The movie twists and turns and I did not see the ending coming. The movie looks great and the vibe is established early on and holds throughout the film. If you like indie thrillers, I recommend it.
