The Place For The Latest Movie Reviews
Cast: Valerie Tian, Elfina Luk, Ingrid Nilson
Director: Michael Felker
When estranged siblings Joseph (Adam David Thompson) and Sidney (Riley Dandy) rendezvous at a local diner after a close-call robbery, they hightail it to an abandoned farmhouse that transports them to a different time in order to escape the law. Their getaway is derailed when an unknown and cryptic metaphysical force emerges and blocks them from returning home. Trapped on the puzzling plot of land, their captor makes it clear that no one can leave until their deadly demands are met. What results from their entrapment not only bends the forces of spacetime—forcing the two to question everything they know about their own reality—but pushes their familial bonds to the breaking point.
'Things Will Be Different' is a crime thriller/Sci-Fi/Family Drama. The above synopsis should be more than enough to know about the film before watching it so not to give away some of the surprises. This is writer/director, Michael Felker's feature film debut behind the camera. He brings a fresh, original tale that is sure to keep everyone wondering what is going to happen next. There is a perfect mix of sci-fi, and family drama and the thrills come during the final act.
This is a thinking man's thriller that will leave you with a lot of questions once it is over. But somehow that never bothered mainly due the excellent writing and the film's leads, Adam David Thompson who plays Joe and Riley Dandy who plays Sidney are both terrific in the film and had great chemistry together giving realistic performances. I don't know if this is going to be for everyone but I found it to be an engaging and also hypnotic thriller that sucks you in until the very end. In theaters and on VOD nationwide this Friday, October 4th so be sure to check it out.
