A house too empty


Wreckers (2011)

Written and Directed by Dictynna Hood this British film stars Claire Foy, Benedict Cumberbatch and Shaun Evans. A young married couple living in the village the husband grew up in get an unexpected visit from his troubled brother.

The low key execution of this film is really good, with some excellent shots and a great tone through out. When it comes to the plot of this film it is really hard to evaluate as so much appears to be left out or go unanswered, while I admire the attempt at subtle story telling you can always go too far one way. There are some really good performances, especially from Claire Foy and I really liked the slightly menacing turn in the final scene from Cumberbatch.

3/5
