Take Shelter

I do love slow-paced thriller films and this is exactly that. Having said that, there is something that makes me uneasy about the ending. It is up to so many interpretations that the writer / director of the film didn’t know himself how to end otherwise a close-to-brilliant story with a decent acting. Would I watch it again? Possibly. Would I make my friends watch it? I guess so.

_Take Shelter’s_ a slow burn, but it gets under your skin. Shannon’s great—properly intense—and there’s loads to chew on about fear, family, and mental health. Bit heavy-handed at times, and it drags in spots
