Last night I watched a film called "a lonely place to die" as sad as the title is it was an awesome film!!
It stars Melissa George who does an amazing job, in fact any horror/thriller she stars in she is amazing at.
The story plot - may contain spoilers.
(you have been warned)
------------------------------------------------------------
The Scottish Highlands prove a beautiful place to picked off by snipers as they form the setting for A Lonely Place to Die- an impressive British thriller by Julian Gilbey who has finally made a decent film at the fourth attempt.
Here we have a group of five mountaineering friends – including Alison (George), the strongest climber and leader of the group and Alex (Sweeney), the tit of the group – who go on a climbing holiday in the Scottish Highlands. Their fun (when they’re not being mean to each other) is cut short when they find a young Serbian girl locked in an underground pit in the middle of nowhere. They rescue her but soon embark on a perilous game of cat and mouse with the kidnappers and also a group of mercenaries sent by the girl’s father to get her back.
The real star of A Lonely Place to Die is the cinematography as we see many breathtaking shots of the mountain scenery which are not disjointedly shown apart from the visitors but rather incorporated into scenes with them. The shots are not haphazardly taken but instead a real skill is shown in producing many scenes with vibrant colours and sharp focus. However, amongst many new faces are a few well-known actors and actresses like Melissa George, who is excellent as the strong lead and she creates someone who is really easy to care about.
I rate the film 9/10
For 2012 this is my favourite film so far.
found you :D
