Lifted (2015)
Omg that's how....SPOILER
It wasn't until the end that I realized, and said out-loud in the empty room to myself, "Oh my goodness, that's how he died." The one thing that threw me off is that she was smiling after her mother said are you okay. I would assume him not believing, and her pushing him to do it, she would have felt VERY guilty, and thus been crying at her father's funeral.
The acting is EXCELLENT. The reveal at the end is done REALLY well. I don't quite understand her imagination making it as if she could of at any moment "lost" her father as she was trying to follow him. Why didn't she imagine that he was holing her hand walking her up to the roof.
Oh wait, there is hidden meaning in that. "At any moment, she could have lost her father." WOW. That is done really great, the fact that she was realizing it, without realizing it. This is done so well.
Xibalba (2017)
I really am enjoying this film.
I'm an hour into it, I know it started (first 5 to 10 minutes) with spotty acting, but then the actors started to really get into their roles. Decent damn acting,, interesting story, great camera/cinematography, and scenery. Now an hour in, the plot slows a little bit, and after that, I guess it gets a bit silly, along with the creatures...just wow, horrible special effects, they obviously did this on a nickle budget. But if you can imagine it with better budget. Well, that's why I liked it. I am not going to shame the movie, just because they didn't have enough money, especially when I enjoyed the first half, to three forth's of it.
