Watch Undertow For Free

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Very well executed

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Why You Might Like It: Most notably, the acting by all involved is very good and really is the highlight of the movie. Jamie Bell is spot on in the lead role and Josh Lucas is fairly convincing as the villain. There is some really nice scenery in the movie that showcases the South very well and puts you almost into the movie. On top of that, the story isn't bad either which makes for a fairly entertaining watch.Why You Might Not Like It: I would argue there is some odd editing and directing at some points in the film. I found the freeze frames in multiple parts of the film to have little meaning and almost seem forced for no apparent reason. There is also some slow spots in the film that make you wish that the scene would hurry up and play out. These scenes again have some purpose, but not anything immensely important. Some might argue against these points, but I tend to believe they are a couple of the obvious downfalls. Acting/Casting: 6.5* Directing/Cinematography/Technical: 5*Plot/Characters: 6* Entertainment Value: 5.5* Total - 6+5+6+5.5 = 23/4 = 5.75*

David Gordon Green directs a project produced by Terrence Malick and it's a film that resembles Malick's works of his own. It's not about going somewhere , it's about going with the stream, enjoy the ride, the adventure, the danger and maybe you can get something out of the experience if you're wise and patient enough.It's the story of the young Munn brothers having to find a way of saving their lives and run away from their violent uncle Deel (Josh Lucas), who recently escaped from prison, killed his own brother (Dermot Mulroney), the kids father, an farmer who happened to have some valuable old coins, family heritage. The brothers are played by Jamie Bell and Devon Alan, who play respectively, the reckless older brother Chris and the young and innocent Tim, who deals with some health problems.Working almost like a "The Night of the Hunter" from the 21st Century, "Undertow" is an interesting piece about two kids struggling to survive the adversities of life at an early age. Rather than being an tale on good versus evil, this absorbing tour de force concentrates in involving us with the eminent danger brought by the uncle's boys, his perversity and thirst for blood. The character played by Lucas is far from the greatness of Reverend Henry Powell but I find him extremely scary as well. Yes, he's a little ahead of Robert Mitchum's character mostly because the time in which we live allows more things to be explored than the time when classic films were made. The fight between brothers that led to the death of one of them is completely unconceivable back in 1955, for instance.And if the tensions works in reasonable ways, quite realistic, is because the actors involved in the movie were perfectly cast. Bell, Alan, Mulroney and Lucas - all deserve praise for bringing life and quality in this powerful drama, something that can appeal to all kinds of audiences."Undertow" is pure and simple, doesn't need much to make its case. It's not a Malick work but has the same effect and his fans won't be disappointed that he had time and money to put in such a beautiful movie. 10/10

Not quite the southern Gothic revival I was expecting from David Gordan Green after watching "George Washington" but not too bad anyway.Two brothers witness their Uncle kill their father, for a set of lost gold coins, and unable to turn to the police, are forced to escape cross country, and encounter many strange and symbolic characters along the way.All and all I wasn't as impressed with Green's stunner of a debut, his trademark writing style is still present "can I carve my smile in your face?", but it's used less here, to the movies detriment. There's some great cinematography as well, the same sense of the beautiful junkyards and backwoods, but the overall story feels kinda contrived. There are some fairy tale-esquire moments, which elevate this above a normal thriller, but a masterpiece this is not.I got the sense when watching this it might be better the next time, or it might be worse. Worth watching for Dave Gordon Green fans, and those interested in beautiful photography of the south, or thrillers in general, but overall it just didn't seem to connect all it threads.

This film is about two young boys having to run for their lives after witnessing a dark family affair.Though this film could have been intense and thrilling, I found it really boring. Though one could say that the slow pacing was used to develop the characters, I think it undermined the film's rush as a thriller. I also found it unconvincing that Deel was able to find the two boys after they boarded the train. Fortunately, Dermot Mulroney is quite believable as a tough father. If it was not for Jamie Bell and Devon Alan's great portrayal of young boys on the run, the film would have been very disappointing. "Undertow" is unfortunately a forgettable film.
