The Capture gripped me early, but the further into the movie it got the more the grip was loosened and by the end it had thoroughly lost me.
It tells the story of a group of scientists who use risky, questionably immoral and dangerous methods to break space and time to find out what truly happens when you die. Is there an afterlife? Are all the reports of angelic entities at places of mass death true?
Based almost entirely in one location with a 3 person cast it plays it's low budget well and delivers a fairly original concept. Sadly what it doesn't do is provide you with a competent payoff, the finale is really quite weak.
Considering the movie tries so hard with it's pseudo-science to come across smart the ending demonstrates a lack of intellect and common sense.
It is very frustrating when an interesting movie fails to wrap things up well and ultimately it kills the entire film.
Nice ideas, failed execution.
The Good:
Solid concept
Convincing premise
Fittingly moody tense atmosphere
The Bad:
Too short
Finale is an utter failure
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Short tattoo sleeves on girls can look fantastic
