It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
Engaging from beginning to end, with great cast and a compelling narrative. It's been sometime since I saw a really good British Indie flick and this was a much welcomed changed from the usual fare.
This film, from the acting to the directing, is a very well done and great film. Director Dom Lenoir not only allows the actors time to enhance their characters, he also allows the actors the opportunity to make their characters their own. The scenery/beautiful setting is amazing and gives the film a feel that is not usually captured on even "studio" films. The rolling hils, the gritty feel and even the sky enhances the story and allows the audience to feel they are in the film.Winter Ridge is a well made thriller that has enough twists and turns to keep the audience guessing and wanting them to return to this world that Dom Lenoir created. Well done and highly recommended.
I really enjoyed this film. It was directed very well, nice pace, the cinematography was wonderful and the acting was good too. Dom Lenoir and his team are ones to watch out for!
UK based director Dom Lenoir delivers his mainstream feature debut with the atmospheric and tense independent detective thriller "Winter Ridge", starring producer Matt Hookings, as the tormented detective Ryan Barnes, alongside Alan Ford (Snatch, An American Werewolf in London) and Game of Thrones's Hannah Waddingham. It's surprising that this was shot for quite a low-budget for a feature, because "Winter Ridge" feels like a high-end production from beginning to the surprising conclusion, full of beautiful raw landscapes, eerie aerial shots, perfect editing and expertly crafted sequences full of tension (like the carchase!). The story follows a tormented detective in a complex chase after a vicious serial killer which terrorizes a secluded mountain village, while his wife is in a coma. The story has a good pacing and built-up, and you feel the emotional journey of detective Ryan Barnes. Matt Hookings is great in his part as a detective on the edge that is battling his own demons while trying to unravel a mystery, and he keeps his own next to UK acting monuments like Alan Ford and Hannah Waddingham. Especially Waddingham is unforgettable as Joanne Hill. So do yourself a favor and check out this tight indie thriller if you have the chance at a film festival near you!
