Concussion

Intriguing without being captivating. Not as ponderous or pretentious as many of these films tend to be. Strong performance from Robin Weigert carries many parts of the story. Despite a somewhat limp climax and a couple of weak accessory characters, Concussion is an interesting and nicely presented movie.

I like small independent films and I liked this one. Engaging until it got near the end and I felt like it lost focus. extra points for being shot in New Jersey. Check it out if you have the time.

I'm watching this. What is this woman looking for? What she is doing seems meaningless. She is not doing it for money. She is not doing it for love. Is she just bored? I don't really understand her relationship with Kate. So Kate is her partner. Is Justin just her pimp? What is the plot or story. It's just about lesbian sex. I really didn't get this at all. I tried so hard to understand it but I didn't get it.

I had no idea what to expect when I first started watching this, but by the end, I was in awe. What an amazing film! So smart, affecting, and deeply thought-provoking. I don't want to give anything away, but I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you give this a chance if you're looking for something different.

Perhaps 6 is too low a rating for this movie, which was well acted and suspenseful in that you do not know where Kate and Abby's marriage is headed or what the consequences of Abby's prostitution will be. I do think it is of interest that the women are a gay married couple, depicting that their marriage is similar to others, yet individual. My problem was that either my brain's neurological connections are weak or the script assumed that we knew what Abby was doing with the loft apartment in the first place or even what Kate did for work. It would have helped me and my husband to have some of the mundane facts of their situation a little better spelled out. Some other things were not too clear to me, either. I do recommend the movie, but you might have to let your questions on some mundane facts just unfold and pay attention to the important stuff.

This was SO MUCH BETTER than I expected. the lead is such a hot mom and I couldn't take my eyes off her the entire film. the only reason i rated this a 9 was for the ending. this movie deserved a great finale but it's still worth the watch.
