The Factory (2012)

I am not a movie critic, just a regular person who likes crime thrillers and for people like me, who like this genre, this movie comes through. I will say that the plot is familiar but I didn't mind because it kept me interested. There isn't anything groundbreaking or phenomenal about this film, but it wasn't even released in theaters, so I have to assume that anyone watching this is at home, looking for a decent movie to watch. This fit the bill for that, which is what I was looking for- something to entertain for a couple hours. There is suspense, good acting, and the ending does add something new to the plot. It certainly didn't end like I was expecting it to. I enjoyed it and consider it time well spent. I say if you usually like movies with crime, murder, chasing them down, Cusack or Jennifer Carpenter, then you will like this movie.

While the pace in "The Factory" is not head over heels fast, then it doesn't really slow down the movie. This movie is built up in a very nice way that slowly builds up suspense and feeds the audience bits and pieces along the way.What appealed to me about this movie was the storyline, and the way that director Morgan O'Neill managed to entice the audience with the way that the story was presented and still managed to put in some really genius plot twists along the way.The storyline in "The Factory" was alpha and omega in the movie, but the good cast also helped the movie along quite nicely. It was essentially John Cusack who made me sit down and watch this movie, but it turned out to be Dallas Roberts who ended up carrying the movie with his phenomenal performance as Carl.I can't claim to be familiar with the true story upon which this movie is based, but the events that took place in the movie were portrayed nicely and realistic. And the fact that some of this actually happened to a certain degree is just disturbing."The Factory" might be slow paced, but it is an outstanding movie that really should be watched if you enjoy crime thrillers. Quite a unique movie experience.

WARNING - SPOILER AHEAD!!!Okay, so this is my first ever summary of a movie. I've seen it recently on Amazon Prime and it wasn't that bad.The film is very well made in terms of acting and cinematography. Certainly not an Acedmy Award Winner, but very solid. The villain is portrayed by Dallas Roberts and i believe him every second of this movie. John Cusack is awesome as always, although his last big hit was a few years ago. The story is intriguing and kept me at the edge of my seat. What bothered me most was the ending - i really liked it, since John Cusack died and was betrayed by his partner Kelsey. But i just knew that Carl had an accomplice besides the big black guy the minute they drove to his home. So for me, Kelsey being Carls girlfriend or wife or whatsoever was no surprise at all.Abby finding out about Kelsey being a bad guy was also unnecessary in my opinion. The end would have even been better, if she hadn't find out.So in the end, the movie "The Factory" is a very solid 6/10.

A psychopath who has a habit of killing prostitutes is back after a break of several years in order to return and kidnapping womens. After a prostitute goes missing, Detective Mike Fletcher with his partner Kelsey Walker get this case to investigate. Mike has a 17 year old daughter witch does not behave very nicely with her family, she wants all the time not to be treated as a little girl and ask for more freedom. She sneaks out of the house one night and she goes to meet with her boyfriend but even he does not understand her so she walks away but is approached by a stranger and taken to the " factory " of which are still two girls. Mike is now forced to forget all he has to do at work and focus on finding his daughter as soon as possible before it is too late. Aided by Kelsey and using the involvement by Darryl an assistant who works at the hospital and that has a link with the killer, giving him the medications he needs to fulfill his plans he will begin a race against time but his feeling and the love for Abby will make him give up or will be able to bring his daughter back home?After a promising start the film begins to lose its action gradually becomes dull with stupid long and unnecessary scenes, towards the end has a twist but will only wake us up a little bit from our sleep after we nearly dozed off.And what up with that painful song from the ending credits? This movie had to be silly till the very end or what?
