How sad is this?

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

A big negative with me is any movie that claims to have a "message." Nobody in today's corrupt Hollywood has any moral authority to deliver a message to anyone. Thus, perhaps, the extreme box office failure.I disregard any and all reviews from anyone who says they saw a movie at a film festival. All hyped up from being invited, and seeing a star or two in person; they get all dew eyed and overpraise.The plain fact is that TAKE is an interesting but mediocre movie, not worth $11 or 90 minutes of anyone's time. I enjoyed the settings and some of the director's work was good; but that's about all. At least it wasn't a Good Robot kills Bad Robot action flick.

I watched this film because of Jeremy Renner, but it was good all around. Very puzzling plot at first, but then you realize that it is unconventional and let yourself be surprised by the turn of events. Very gritty visuals and iconic landscapes of the west with Nevada-style diners in the middle of nowhere. This could be a cult film. If you see this on DVD you may have to squint to see the fine print and realize that this really is a film with a message--see Restorative Justice websites--a community approach to healing criminal injustice. Something new to me, but maybe worth looking into if you know any crime victims--or, I suppose, criminals. I agree, what is in Ana's trailer, and what happened to her husband, and why the title?

I too, saw this film at Tribeca. went to see this movie not because of Minnie, but because of Adam Rodriguez. In my opinion, Adam really shone in this film. The film showcased his many talents and proved that he is extremely versatile in any type of media. He played a complicated character whose impact on the main character was strongly felt and made me question faith and forgiveness.In sum, it is an emotionally charged piece that can be difficult to watch. I myself, had to compose myself. However in the end, I was left with a movie that really provoked me to question society and our own actions and the residual effects our actions have on them. Overall, I would definitely recommend this film to others.

A great, thought provoking film about the death penalty. This is a movie that will be extremely difficult for most viewers to watch, yet it is worth it for more than one reason. The first and foremost to reason to see this film is that it is a visual tour de force. Every scene looks amazing and the cinematographer constantly fills the screen with something interesting to look at. The second reason I would say to see this is that its script is pretty intelligent. while not above some logic flaws and a frustrating beginning, a murder who I felt needed a little more backstory,the film really does shine when it comes together. Much like Crash or Babel it is a nonlinear story with some different time periods. Minnie Driver is quite good though her accent does come through at points, regardless her emotion is conveyed really well on screen. Overall this film made quite an impact on me and was well worth the time invested! Definitely check out this well made expertly directed low budget film. Cant wait for my next film at tribeca!
