The Pages (2018) Reviews
An honest review
Out of the twelve current reviews, the ten 10/10's are all fake, and the two 1 & 2/10 are wannabe critics that have no clue how to rate a film. I found this film flawed, yet interesting and entertaining, and better than I expected. The acting by all cast was on point, especially J.L. Curtis. The sound/score was decent. The directing and cinematography were well done by writer/director Joe Chappelle. But his writing is were the flaws showed. The too-long 102 min length, and extremely slow pacing made this film seem over 2 hours long. Many scenes were dragged out and unnecessary imo. Joe Chappelle's resume is mainly TV's shows, so going into a full length feature film clearly was a challenge for him. Had this films pace been sped up, and the screenplay edited/cut down to 60 (TV show length) - 80 min, it would have held the audiences attention better with constant uninterrupted suspense.. The premise of this political drama/(hardly a) thriller was actually very interesting, and the flashback scenes were done well, but most of the 'entertainment value' was the last 15-20 mins. The beginning was the slowest, focusing too much on unnecessary long or irrelevant scenes. Still, an enjoyable film on dirty underground politics. Would I recommend it? Only if you are into political films and/or have nothing better to watch. It's an honest 7/10 from me.
Just like politics today-- powerful and twisted!
"An Acceptable Loss" is a twisted political thriller that seems so relevant today. It is a story from a point of view I never even thought about! It's a good look at both sides of one particular issues we often see in the daily news. Libby (Tika Sumpter) and Martin (Ben Tavassoli) make for one unexpected and intense duo. Rachel (Jamie Lee Curtis) is simply powerful! I think this film by Joe Chappelle is absolutely worth seeing! Go ahead and rent it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Great thriller with timely themes
I really liked this film. Personally, I enjoyed the slow burn. It unfolded as more of a mystery, so I was surprised by reviews that called it slow and lacking fireworks. This was enjoyable and it was so refreshing to see such a strong, female cast.
Great suspenseful movie
I really enjoyed this movie. The critics are crazy wrong on this one. I see all the user reviews are great and I agree. This is an intelligent thriller....not "in-your-face" . I was engaged from the beginning through the end. The acting is amazing from this strong female cast. And I was on the edge of my seat throughout the movie. Highly recommend!
TIMELY AND RELEVENT
It was fascinating how you thought this movie was going to be a certain kind of movie and then it switched tracks a couple of times before becoming an edge-of-your-seat thinking-person's thriller. I never saw the twist at the end coming. The principal actors were all excellent and the cinematography was great!
