Watch Convergence For Free

Very best movie i ever watch

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Detective Ben Walls (Clayne Crawford) wakes up in a nearly abandoned hospital in Atlanta following an explosion. The first clue we get something is wrong is when the nurse talks about the upcoming Yankees-Browns football game. Ben ignores this but finds himself in weird situation. He meets a guard named Peter Grayson, called Grace for short (Gary Grubbs). We quickly get the idea that this Twilight Zone has a religious theme, one that is explained to us at 58 minutes into the feature. However, if you read the plot description provided by the production for Amazon and IMDB, then you know this plot spoiler already. I was fortunate enough to watch the film cold, which made the mystery aspect a bit more entertaining, unfortunately not entertaining enough. The theme and acting was okay. The confrontations were mostly low key and the torture aspect didn't make a lot of sense. I mean you're dead already, where are you going to go, Cleveland? I liked the nurse Delilah character (Chelsea Bruland), but outside of that, you can keep the rest.This is not exactly a faith based film, but a film that requires faith to believe. Not recommended for people who have surgery scheduled at Grady Memorial Hospital.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity. Do you really believe?

Yet again people who have not really been guilty of being wicked, but because they did not have much faith they need to prove they are worthy of making it onto a plane of existence far better than the 1 on which us lowly humans reside.What was the average rating, 4.3, same as the IQ of those who rated it that high.Yet again people who have not really been guilty of being wicked, but because they did not have much faith they need to prove they are worthy of making it onto a plane of existence far better than the 1 on which us lowly humans reside.What was the average rating, 4.3, same as the IQ of those who rated it that high.

I'm not sure about this one. Without giving any spoilers, its odd.The beginning is interesting, then it goes really really really bad for a while. Better adjectives? Hackneyed. Dull. Gratuitously violent. Confused.About an hour in, things take a turn for the more interesting, although the overplayed grunt of violence and US style gun fetish get tiring.There's a theme of fundamentalism, but i'm not sure that there really are any fundamental christians who act like the moron in this movie. Maybe i'm wrong and the world is a far more horrid place than i believe. At any rate, if those people do exist, i don't expect they have any supernatural abilities such as exhibited here. The suspense of disbelief required is a wee bit too far. As is the torture and violence. pointless. endless.Still, there are scenes in the film that are clever, hinting at places that a less pain and violence obsessed director could take a better movie.If you like torture movies and the supernatural and old fashioned detective movies, then perhaps this might be your thing.

Here we have Convergence. A film that tackles the deeply philosophical themes of the price to be paid for redemption and truth, heaven and hell, right and wrong. Oh pleeeese!! A promising start (only because the opening credits are a comprehensive larceny of Se7en but, unfortunately, that's where the similarities end). Our hero is the typical family man/bomb disposal/discovery expert attached to the local constabulary. Called in from his vacation (apparently an important factor in this drivel) he speaks to his commanding officer (who apologises for calling him in) and one other heavily padded bomb disposal team member and then proceeds to fan out with the team and search for further potential incendiary devices. Sighting a short bald man through a broken window frame he calls out. Baldy says "Body here, just picking it up" (^). KABOOOM. This takes our hero directly to the mysteriously uninhabited hospital with one nurse on duty and a mysterious guard that everyone "Just calls Grace". Oooooh – Intriguing???….no, not really. I think every viewer can guess what's happening here but no, not our surprisingly unscarred hero. He staggers around blindly to discover the other characters in this compacted Purgatory of white walls and non-working elevators. Surprise, surprise. He discovers his boss is here advising/ordering him to "stay in bed and recover. Don't move, that's an order.", "sit here and drink your coffee. Don't move, that's an order." Of course our hero defies his boss and hunts around the hallowed, deserted halls. He comes across his boss and team. His team consists of the above mentioned bomb team worker and two others. Not too sure who these are or where they came from. Even by the closing credits I can only figure that one is a lady in a blue dress with a dead daughter (apparently a bomb victim) and Isaac, a short dumpy guy (yep, that's it, that's all there is to him – Isaac, a short dumpy guy). Also the mandatory floating spirits and the hero's (and apparently everyone else's) nemesis Daniel whom considers himself "the right hand of God". I think poor old Danny has delusions of grandeur and has not actually been designated by the "Big Cheese" as a bona fide member of the ecclesiastical team. Apparently Daniel can kill or maim the crew and they instantly become his soldiers of Christian redemption of the others moral turpitude. Not too sure whether his methods qualify under the banner of Christianity kindness and forgiveness but the wrath of the Almighty can be severe. The fact that knives, shotguns and pistols are used to dispatch not only the mere mortals here but also the wispy, ghostly spirits is a little far-fetched but hey, I've not visited Purgatory so how would I know? One small point I'd like cleared up how come Daniel and his team of big scary dead/undead/tortured/de tongued killer team are able to be punched, kicked pushed and, most surprisingly, need to use all of their zombie powers to avoid being hit by deadly office plastic garbage bins and plastic paper holders flung at them by our hero during physical confrontations? I think all viewers will start to meditate on the deep metaphysical connotations within this movie when our hero states "Sometimes faith is just a stairwell". Then comes the third bit. Bringing us into current times with the "Ghostbusters" team trying to find the truths and apparently trying to tie up the loose ends of this, by now, unsaveable rubbish. Sorry, yet another fail. Closing scene of hero's broken glasses passed over from "the other side" to be delivered on to the hero's grieving wife and daughter brings relief, not only to his family, but also to the viewer that it is finally over. As much as anyone I am perfectly capable of suspending disbelief for 90 minutes of my life to view an interesting and intriguing thriller and mystery but there must be some sense of realism and connectedness with continuity in a story. This movie has none. Why, in a world with millions of deaths a day, would this Purgatory only accept six or seven people? How does an (apparently) already dead Purgatory tenant come to be to be killed again? Why would these tenants need to be restrained by worldly medical restraints? Why is the all-powerful "right hand of God" adversely affected by "water boarding" torture? Why was the short bald man (^) not killed in the blast that took out our hero and what was a medic doing in a building that had not been cleared by bomb disposal? Pretentious, unbelievable, far–fetched, Convergence is a supernatural thriller with delusions of its own grandeur. Not supernatural, not a thriller. At a showing in Phoenix film festival writer/director Drew Hall apparently bet the audience that no-one would ever see "the twist coming" in this movie. I owe you Mr. Hall because I lost the bet. I have watched it and did not even SEE "a twist" in this waste of celluloid. Why, in this season of movie awards, with such magnificent offerings as Brooklyn, The Revenant, Spotlight etc. do I subject myself to this mundane, humdrum dross? Maybe it is my Purgatory? This one ranks with Ghostline as time I will never get back in my life. If you must see it the Blue Ray is available now on Amazon for the bargain price of $9.99 but I'd wait a couple of weeks until it comes down to $1.99 One star (for stealing the opening credits)
