Review of Hell's House

The acting in this movie was very good. All the characters really helped shape the movie. The plot/meaning behind it was very hard to decipher but the plot overall never got boring. It really made you learn about how that time period handled crimes and how even a young boy can be thrown into hell without a second thought. The lighting was very well done, too. It was perfect to watch the movie throughout and had darkened with shadows and face contours for effect when needed.This was very apparent in the scene with Shorty and Jimmy in the solitary confinement room. The photography was excellent, there were amazing shots and narrative when it came to the camera. The film lacked good sound effects. It was good, overall, but lacked in some areas.
