Verdict on The Bridge
Recap
The movie follows a family who return to New Orleans, but unusual things begin to happen around them. It leads them down a dangerous path as they look to uncover the truth and save themselves before it is too late.
Best Parts
The concept is interesting even if it follows a more traditional move to a home town and strange things happen.
Worst Parts
The movie struggles to create enough for the main characters, it leads us down a path of uncertainty and nothing much feels connected. It lacks real scares, the acting isn’t the strongest and by the end, you won’t remember very much.
Final Thoughts – The Bridge doesn’t hit as hard as it wants too.
