I'm bored, lets review: Thr3e

Written by Alan B. McElroy and Ted Dekker, directed by Robby Henson; today i present my thoughts on the movie Thr3e:



Taking place in the life of a NYC career student, Kevin Parson (Marc Blucas), strugles with demons of his past as a serial psychopathic murderer plays riddles and puzzles to provoke Kevin to tell his darkest secret...

Blah blah blah blah...

Let's get down to the nuts and bolts of this shall we? The main things i look at when i'm looking for a good movie is these three objectives: Was it thought out well? Executed well? Did the ending leave the viewers satisfied?

Well the answers are.... Yes, yes and yes.
The movie starts out kind of slow as most do, developing plot and such, at first i thought this movie was going to have another one of those teen screams or who dun it themes to it.. boy was i wrong.

Excellent acting by Blucas (a favorite actor of mine, perhaps i'm a bit bias) as the story unfolds. As expected there is plenty of twists and suprises in this psycological thriller. As the story advanced the movie really became more intense, suspenseful and enigmatic, as any good thriller should. The thing i couldn't help but feel was as if the actor wanted you to think he made a really bad movie and gradually tell you "J/k i actually got some skillz". One complaint i have however, and alot of movies do this, is that there was a sense of realism that was held through out the majority of the movie that kind of broke it's vowels towards the end. The inconsistency of a theme really erks me sometimes.

Usually novel made movies tend to lead to dissapointment and as usual, i did not read the novel so i can not make a comment on that point.

Overall, i thought it was a great movie, surely worth 2 1/2 hours of your life. As i will state below and i'm sure i will state a million times again:

If you have Netflix or a friend that has it, you can stream this movie instantly and no hassle, as the same with most the movies i review on this blog, there is nothing to lose even if i say it is terrible!


My ratings:

Pro: Very good story, well executed.

Con: Little to no replay value.

My decision: Watch it fosho. 8/10
