Take Shelter
Directed by Jeff Nichols
A man plagued by terrifying apocalyptic visions struggles to determine if they’re real or if he’s losing his mind. Either way, Curtis (Michael Shannon) is in trouble, and so he doesn’t tell his wife Samantha (Jessica Chastain) about his nightmares, and instead seeks answers in psychology books, while obsessively building a shelter, just in case. Jeff Nichols (MIDNIGHT SPECIAL) broke out with this acclaimed portrait of a man on the brink of disaster that’s instantly relatable to all of us who live in fear of the very real apocalyptic scenarios on Earth’s horizon.

Slow but really good
Excellent acting and a great story! very entertaining.
Fantastic. A slow burn, like others have said. I'll also praise Michael Shannon's acting.
Easily one of the best I've watched in a long time, the fear isn't in jumpscares or gore but in the story itself. Absolutely loved this.
Le film est bon, mais un peu long. Peu d’action
