Don't Let Go

a 10/10 movie, absolute masterpiece of the highest order

This was a very good watch, very very confusing but also Soo dope! I still can't believe I didn't see it coming 😭😭10/10

This film follows the same ground as the film "Frequency" with Dennis Quaid, but what is missing from this film is a raison d'etra for how the time-travel happens. In Frequency it is an electrical storm. In this film it is nothing. It just happens. It's an OK film but w/o the cause it is simply an updated version of Frequency. I prefer Frequency.

The cast did an amazing job. Was a really good concept. Not completely original, but had original components. Could've been a 10 had the story been developed a bit more and the score not have been so sleepy.

I saw this movie at Sundance, and it kept me interested the whole time. The story is very complex, and the movie was very well done. I recommend this movie if you like intensity.

A psychological thrilling mystery that has your heart pounding and your brain guessing at every second. Writing Quality: Very good. This is a well put-together plot that advances slowly and thoughtfully at first with parallel time lines. There is no figuring out the mystery in this one as Uncle Jack does everything he can, after praying to God for a second chance (to save his niece and her family from being murdered). Scare factor: A few moments catch you off guard with the popping sounds of guns. Content (sex, language, & violence): No sex, 4 uses of language, extreme violence at the end. The film speeds up (your adrenaline) in its final showdown. Values: Heavy on the unity of family. The quest for truth. The story is quite intricate, and in the end, you won't be able to keep your pulse rate down.

A take on the Frequency plot, with several clever twists. The suspense element continues until the last scene (no loose ends, though). Action scenes just the right mix. Intelligent sci-fi. Glad to have watched this.

This obviously like most is my personal review! I really dont understand why this movie is getting trashed so badly I thought it was a very good movie! Is it going to win Oscar's probably not but it was well made story was good and pretty suspenseful. I dont really understand what some people expect from movies these days I have been a big movie buff since the age of 10 and I take movies for what they are. It was very entertaining.

I remember seeing the trailer and feeling potential, then the average or even below ratings came, others called them out and stated the movie's underrated, and, well, eventually I went in with one eyebrow raised high. The director Jacob Estes is guilty of making a movie that hit me hard when I was little, the 2004's "Mean Creek" - seen it a few times and that definitely made me a little more excited for "Don't Let Go". Well, the verdict - flawed and unfocused movie, but not exactly a disappointing experience. "Don't Let Go" has a lot going on, a time travel plot, a whodunit (and why) mystery & the part that, in my opinion, worked the best - the central relationship between the detective Jack Radcliff (David Oyelowo) and his niece Ashley (Storm Reid), one of the movies main driving forces. The script is somehow both the best and worst thing about "Don't Let Go", it offers exciting themes, heartfelt relationships (helped a LOT by the very fine and devoted performances by the whole cast) & an uneven pacing. The themes of time travel and the many mysteries in need of solutions take turns slowly and sometimes weirdly, maybe even silly, resulting in a plot which, when taken as a whole, can be described as overly convoluted or lost in itself. Given the subject matter, "Don't Let Go" should be more thrilling, engaging and head-strong, but from the many goals Jacob Estes had pinned down only half was reached. Visually "Don't Let Go" is satisfying enough without impressing much, when it comes to action or violence, I can't say it shies away either, but, again, don't expect to be blown away by the movies aesthetic. "Don't Let Go" is too much of a head-scratcher, strives for eventual coherency but partially misses it. Nevertheless, it has quite enough to offer & the ending has the potential of warming your heart up a bit and muddle some of its flaws in retrospect. If You can believe me, I think that neither the 4's or 8's are to be listened to here. My rating: 6/10.

I watched this movie when it was still under the title of "Relive". A cop learns his niece and her parents are killed. He soon starts receiving phone calls from his dead niece. Is it her ghost calling from the other side? No, it's her calling from the past, two weeks before her and her family are killed. The cop then tries to prevent their murder. This movie is a revisited, modern version of the movie "Frequency" (2000) starring Jim Caviezel and Dennis Quaid. Instead of a father and son duo connecting through time, it's now an uncle and niece. A cell phone in place of a ham radio for communication among other differences. I'm not gonna reveal more on the movie to not spoil it. Is the movie good? I think so. Are there better movies out there? Absolutely and definitely worse ones. I just dont think it's worth paying the price of a movie theatre ticket to watch this. You can stay in more comfortable at home and make it a movie night. Pay way less to stream the original and other movies with the money you saved on the ticket in any of the innumerable streaming services available.
