Honeymoon (2014)

I wasn't familiar with the movie "Honeymoon" prior to finding it by sheer random luck. I read through the synopsis and it sounded like something that could prove interesting. And the movie also had Rose Leslie in it, and that could prove to be a plus.Right, well, I managed to endure 40 minutes of this ordeal of a movie. And nothing of any worth or interest happened in that 40 minutes, so I just gave up on the movie out of sheer and utter boredom."Honeymoon" has a very small cast, so they had to perform quite well in order to carry the movie and they did nicely enough. But they had nothing to work with in terms of script or storyline.This was a very uneventful and very boring movie.I have absolutely no intention of returning to watch the rest of the movie, because there was zero appeal in this movie for me.

This is not a horror its more thriller sci-fy. No real substance to the story just wasted 1.5 hrs of my life.

Agreeing to spend his honeymoon at an isolated cabin in the woods, a newlywed man becomes worried by his wife's increasingly bizarre and unusual behaviour in this intriguing mystery thriller starring Harry Treadaway and Rose Leslie. The film has copped a lot of criticism for its ambiguous ending that leaves several questions unanswered, but this is a metaphorical movie first and foremost with the filmmakers successfully tapping into the anxieties that come with any relationship (how well do you really know the other person?). In fact, the lack of any overt explanation is one of the film's strengths with all thrills and chills coming from the wife's perplexing behaviour as opposed to loud noises, dark shadows or ostentatious special effects. The isolated woodlands setting works in the film's favour too as it challenges our generic expectations; the couple are not vulnerable because they are alone in the woods but rather because they are stuck with each other when they might not know one another as well as they think. Of course, the ending could have been a little clearer here, but with Leslie in particularly good form as the wife whose personality evolves throughout, this is a pretty compelling ride.

Do not judge this film on its first 15 minutes. Let it simmer.Excellently crafted thriller-turned-horror. This film doesn't simply "keep you guessing," it compels your interest in the answers. The seemingly superfluous dialogue (e.g., the duck story, the misused words) all pay off.
