Nesting Dolls

Only 16 reviews. ,mine included, THAT is a tell tale sign that this movie is absolutely forgettable AND rubbish. Inferior direction. Inferior acting. Inferior story. Should I continue? I guess not....

I stopped watching about 30 min in. The set up was weak, the "bad thing" was blown out of proportion for no reason other than to further the plot. It was a Masterclass in poor decision making and makes me wonder if a man wrote it, because girls just panic all the time for no reason and do stupid stuff.

Excellent directing. Right from the get-go. intro and music is perfect. So it's about girls in a remote holiday house which would lead you to believe it's going to be about a nutjob who cuts the power and terrorizes the girls and they spend half the movie screaming just like in a million other films, but it not that at all. It's much darker. Much better written. Fantastic pacing. Acting is pretty good. The ending was not what I wanted, it's okay I guess, but at least it has an ending.

As someone who spent nearly four years in a fraternity in my late teens/early 20s, I can definitively say that this is one of the few movies to capture the true nature of the relationships between the members of Greek organizations Organizations whose members refer to each other as 'brothers' and 'sisters.' On the surface, you call yourselves brothers and sisters under the pretense that you're more than friends, and that you share a bond that comes close to being family. You spend an inordinate amount of time telling everyone how close you are, and how you would practically die for each other. And you relentlessly promote your organization as a positive bastion of friendship and unity. Below the surface, however, you realize the reality is somewhat different. For starters, you enter the organization in a ritual called 'rush' - which amounts to the most fleetingly superficial experience of goodwill and friendship you could possibly imagine. Rush is immediately followed by a much longer ritual called 'pledgeship' - which amounts to being abused and exploited for months on end. Fortunately pledgeship doesn't last forever, and most pledges make it through to become active members. However, you never really feel like you know these people - and you certainly don't entirely trust them. You go through the motions of being a group of friends, but the question is always there right beneath the surface - if it really came down to it, would these people that you are supposedly so close to sell you out or even kill you in a heartbeat if it served their agenda - and would they do it in the name of brotherhood/sisterhood? Nesting Dolls isn't the most realistic movie in the sense that many of us - even those who have belonged to a fraternity/sorority - can say we've actually been though the exact scenario presented in the movie. However, just about anyone who has been in an organization in which you call yourselves 'brothers' or 'sisters' will most likely agree - that's exactly what you thought it was, just below the surface.

Simple and effective on a low budget. The movie has its flaws but with something like this it really relies on its performances and the three main girls make it work. The filmmakers here worked with limited resources and pulled off an entertaining, if flawed, piece of work.

Okay no clue what this one is about. The beginning seems like 3 girls hanging out ...in a house....on a boat.....doing some drinking....... And then....something bad happens...... Their first reaction is to just bury the bad thing.....but they change their minds..... Wait the something bad didn't really happen?? I'm sorta lost here. -1 Star for the something bad not happening? And the one girl who is obsessed with 'if you tell anyone, our lives are ruined'??? Nothing bad happened?? I don't get it...... -1 Star again for something bad not happening progresses into a felony, or multiple felonies...... Okay and more and more not bad stuff happens.... Not really making this any better or dumber...it's pretty dumb The writer of this really really got this one wrong. Wrote women wrong, wrote a very flawed story. Directing and acting, not too bad at all. But the story...nuh uh. 3/10

It's either 9 or 10 and really doubt that. It's just a movie of someone like torturing another one with craziness inside. The storyline is quite flat and not really horrifiying for most of the time. But it does have some dark and tense moment. Can watch.
