Drop: Review

 An intriguing mystery film that keeps you on the edge of your seat for the whole ride!

The story line in this film was so good! Just when you think you have it all figured out, it ends up taking a turn that you wouldn't expect! I loved that they took their time to develop the characters, so that you would end up caring about them, and rooting for them as well! Loved the twists in this so much, it is another reminder of why mystery films are my favorites!

The acting in this film was very good! Meghann Fahy did a great job at carrying the entire film! The fact that she had to be involved in almost every scene, and portray so many emotions at the same time was pretty impressive! Brandon Sklenar did a great job portraying a very likeable man, who you did not want to see get it! Violett Beane stole the show as Jen, and Jeffrey Self did a great job at stealing the show also!

The film really did remind me of that film "Red Eye' that came out back in 2005. There were some very similar moments in it, but it managed to stand on its own two feet! Christopher Landon did a great job at directing the tension moments, but adding a lot of very well timed humorous moments to help lighten the mood! Bravo Christopher, bravo!

The only small problem I had, was that I wish they had explained more of why the villain wanted Violet to kill her date, a little bit longer would've been nice!

They do not need to make a sequel! This film had a satisfying ending, and I do not see the need for a sequel! 

Saw this as part of the Regal Monday Mystery Movie, and I got my money's worth, and then some!

Out of 4 stars I would give it...

3.5 out of 4 stars
