Makes you reconsider your life.

Rating: Null/10 (25 March 2016)

It's not everyday a movie can keep you glued to the screen as such. This was a disturbing yet mesmerizing, sorrowful yet breezy, strange yet an innocent tale of a Ma' and Jack that makes you go through a whole expedition of emotions, all in a "garden shed". The voice over of the young boy's thoughts narrated his purity more than his infantile. I might even call it Director Lenny Abrahamson best treasure so far. The casting was impeccable and their performances spoke mountains. My only concern with the movie is that Brie Larson was cited as the lead actor while it was quite eminent of Jacob Tremblay being the lead, hands down. This story testifies how strong hope can be and and how unforgiving hopelessness is. It portrays a mere glimpse of the horrors thousands held captive go through as we speak, just like Jack and his Ma'. It was truly a pleasure watching, keep up the good work.
