RISEN

REVIEWED
This movie stars Joseph Fiennes, not James Bond's M, but the younger brother.

It is about the rise of Jesus Christ (?), I believe, from what being told and written from the bible. What I know there are a few versions and I dont know which one was this taken from. It started from the cruxification of JC right to when he rose from the dead and commanded his 12 apostles to spread Christianity.

Through out the movie, you are not told the name Jesus rather than Yeshua who was played by Cliff Curtis. This guy could look like a Negro, hispanic but more like an Indian. He could also look like a Jew in this one. JF played Clavius one of the roman's commander who got "converted" but turned down to be one of the apostle.

The movie is slow with not much of action or effects. The only motivation to view this is to find out what finally happened or when the movie end. To me how easily was Clavius being turned to believe in Yeshua hard to understand. How a Roman commander who slained Jews suddenly turned a new leaf when he met Yeshua. And also how the Apostle believe in him that he had turned is also a wonder. But since it is based on a "true story" of sort, it could happened. Perhaps like "Eddie the Eagle" the part of Clavius was fictious ?

The Romans soldiers seem kind and gentlemen like thou you see dozens of bodies been thrown to rot after cruxification.

Good to see if you are into drama. Ok acting I suppose. It would be better if it had shown the cruelty and the torture done by the Romans and how Christianity started to spread. Spicing up the action would also be great. Perhaps budget is a constraint and so we are left with this version.

REVIEWED
This movie has a ring to it. The first that'll come to your mind is the question - has it got to do with the movie of a similar but unique title which is Cloverfield ? I can still remember that movie where it was as though taken from a handcam all through out the film.  At that time it was one of the first to experiment with that kind of movie technique. In a way it helps to make a movie interesting despite its low budget. That movie worked for me as it was effective. In the end we finally discovered what the "mysterious" terror was. Only a short glimpse it made the movie work well. But that was this movie what about this one ?

Nope it is not taken from a supposedly handcam perspective. Its not too low a budget but the set made you think it is and it applied the same formula as the earlier one (not saying that it is related :) It keep the suspense right up the end and spend the budget of the movie at the end too.

No surprise that the main attraction of this movie is that the producer is the respected JJ Abrams right after the huge success of Star Wars TFA. The movie has his element but not directed by him. 

This movie was give the awesometacular rating by a Youtube movie reviewer (i think you know who) and I grabbed the first chance that I can get hold of the respected download version of it.

I am not disappointed at all watching it but it did not get the thumbs up as nothing much the movie can do about 3 people in a bunker. It has its moments all right. Its strength lies in the acting of the 3 stars. Maybe John Goodman can get an award like JK Simons in Whiplash for this one, the scary guy. Elizabeth Winstead was also good. She deserve an award too if this year Bree Larson got for Room which till now i disagree.

This movie is recommended if you like drama and built of suspense in a film. With such thin plot and to drag it for about 1hour 40mins is a feat indeed.
