I'm making this post to bring attention to original movies being released that people here might not have heard about. If it's recieved well, perhaps I'll make this a weekly series of posts about originals being released.
Okay, technically, A Working Man is based on a book, but for all intents and purposes, it's original.
Went to see Unicorn just as it came out - purely by chance, I was in town and needed to kill a couple of hours.
You'll find this out if you look at most reviews, but it's a solid 6/10 movie. It's competent and has an interesting premise, but it doesn't do anything terribly original with it. The "scare" moments were predictable to even a passive fan of horror, though not unearned.
What brings it out of mediocrity are the performances; the whole cast is bringing their A game. Even if the characters never really surprise you, they're still somehow believable and it's easy to root for (or against) them.
