Downrange starts off shambling down a dusty old highway, with dull acting and a less than inspiring pace. But halfway through this movie, things really picked up for me, and I was watching the tense thriller I was looking for. From wanting to bash my head against a car door like Todd to holding my breath with every shot, give this movie a try. It might surprise you.
Terrible. Seriously. Boring. Badly-acted.
That was WAY better than I had been anticipating. It started to lose its energy at some point which I was afraid of the plot going a slower direction, but then picked up out of nowhere and just kept ramping up from there which surprised the fuck out of me. If you come to a point you start to lose interest in the plot, STICK WITH IT. This is a hidden gem for sure.
(It's really more like a 3. 7) This is such a horrifying premise. It reminded me of Jeepers Creepers 2, in a good way of course. The group of students were decent enough to root for. The sniper was an absolute menace, however, the routine of him shooting and them ducking over and over because repetitive. So while the premise is fantastic, I think it also in a way limits the film from truly being a great movie instead of an entertaining watch. I would definitely recommend though.
Honestly really liked it! Had be at the edge of my seat and the teens were pretty good at problem solving. Not sure how I feel about the ending but the laugh at the end sells the bit for me; all just such a crazy and traumatic thing ya just gotta laugh
