Didnt get excited until half of the movie. Actually 2/3rds.

The Lodge- is a good psychologocal thriller. The only downfall is that, its very very slow. Not until the half way point, things start to pick up, then the third act, things really start to pick up. But by then your already bored, falling alseep or cant wait till the movie ends. Its a slow burning movie, and for a 2 hour movie, when half of the movie is boring or when 2/3rds of is slow and the last half is good, well you probley be alseep or bored. Either way this movie is boring for 50%-70% of the movie. The rest is good. I love the psycholoical espect and the twist and turns are really good.

The plot: During a family retreat to a remote winter cabin over the holidays, the father is forced to abruptly depart for work, leaving his two children in the care of his new girlfriend, Grace. Isolated and alone, a blizzard traps them inside the lodge as terrifying events summon specters from Grace's dark past.

Its a really good psychological thriller with great twist and turns, just its boring for most of the movie.

SAVING GRACE is a tense, fast-paced, psychological thriller that tells the story of a woman who has been under 'care' for forty years. The ultimate victim of gas-lighting and ulterior motives. It starts with her weaning herself off the tablets prescribed in the hope of reigniting her marriage. What happens next is straight out of the pages of a novel!

Separated into three parts, you get a clear and concise view of just where Grace is. To begin with, I wasn't sure if her husband WAS actually trying to kill her or if it was just an effect of the tablets. Soon I was caught up in a web of lies that had me enthralled.

This is a great thriller that shows just how hard it can be for men and women who have had a gas lighter in their lives! A drama to sink your teeth in with a strong and plentiful supporting cast.

A wonderful read and definitely recommended by me.
