Torn (2013) Reviews

  • Deep thoughtful movie. Well played, and the story will keep you interested.

    Yeah they are all torn, and pulled from their safe places, and no one will be sure what to believe anymore. No better mystery, than one allowed to unfold on it's own. This is a deeply emotional story, and you will be torn along with the players as the blame bounces from Son, to Son. The acting is great, and the film making is very good for the equipment that would have been used. There is very clear direction, and the story as I mentioned is deep, and winding. I personally did not just fall into this movie, I found it rough, and difficult to watch at first, but then the Mothers both won me over with the full force of rumors tearing at them each in turn. I did end up Enjoying this movie, and I would recommend this one, it is unpolished, but for a lover of true feeling, and good drama this could be a big win. If you are in need of a big movie fix, this is not it, but it is a nice little movie. Jesse of www.Jesse.ca

    This film establishes characters and follows their emotional vacillations in such a conscientious, thorough manner that its compassion becomes powerful. It's neither formulaic nor lazy, and offers a refreshing lack of cynicism, even granting some noble courage to characters who might not in reality be so graceful. Neither angry nor pretentious, the film also never struggles to be more than what it is: a pleasantly optimistic, hopeful depiction of how people might heal under the weight of distraction following a tragedy. The performances are excellent, and help to make the film very engrossing.

  • Emotional, moving, honest movie.

    In a town in the USA two families share the same harsh fate. But they are from two different cultures, and the movie revolve around this subject. How do they cope, and how do their surroundings respond to them. Sounds boring huh? Let me try again, this movie is excruciating honest, and it will leave you with a feeling of shame. If you're a parent, watch this movie. If you think Muslims from the middle east all are evil, except from the 2 you know personally, watch this movie. If you are young in The States, and got this movie on your to see list, imagine that the two main chars, instead of being left alone to deal with their tragedy, would have gotten professional help from the government. I cant help wonder how this movie got a score of 5,4. Perhaps the reason for setting a low score, could be that the movie gives a nuanced view upon Muslims and how we/the media treat them.

    Just started to watch this movie in Pakistan, to see how Mahnoor Baloch acted. But after sometime script was all over my mind. At the end, I was feeling bit low about our thoughts and assumptions. That's what we are. We just believe on whatever our media and govt projects. Even the investigations are more focused to make suspects if you don't have any. Movie also reflects how incomplete facts always hurt peoples, cultures, families and even nation's behavior towards each other. I feel the movie was cut short for the sake of time. It could have been in more detail. If you are planning to watch a serious movie with a good ending. You must watch it.

  • Seriously underrated here. Sad.

    A movie doesn't need to be all adrenaline and witty dialogue to be seriously good. I'm disappointed with these other reviews. They're just wrong. The acting is adequate, if unremarkable, but the acting is not the point. This is a well-written, thoughtful film with no throwaway scenery. Everything is meaningful without being obvious. This movie explores two kinds of terrorism (well, three or four, actually): the kind we name and wage wars against, and the kind(s) we excuse and justify. It manages to weave the narrative together with very little dialogue or action. Just little snippets that give insight into the motivations and prejudices of people, most of whom ought to know better. It manages to show relentlessly bullied youth and radicalized Muslim youth in the same light, which is a fair comparison when you consider that both can lead to the exact same kinds of terror (acts of mass murder). The film's message is subtly delivered. It's a quiet, introspective film, and that's its power. It insists that you examine your own assumptions and sit uncomfortably with the comparisons it offers. It delivers a satisfying ending (in my opinion) which doesn't leave anyone free to justify their biases. It is also bittersweet, because SPOILER it seems nobody left behind will ever know what really happened, or, heartbreakingly, that the boys were not the monsters people needed them to have become. The actual culprit is never seen onscreen beyond an ambiguously-colored hand dropping off a backpack, which is the perfect solution to the plot's efforts at peeling open assumptions and leaving them to air out.
