The Lazarus Project is an Excellent Thriller with excellent acting by Paul Walker. This film is a very underrated film, classed by some viewers as slow, well that's completely rubbish and unfair. It's not slow at all, the films storyline about a man taken away from his wife and daughter and thrown into a haunting care home with people trying to get prison Ben Harvey to forget about his wife and kids and by Ben trying to find out is the place where he should really be, all the haunting flashbacks he gets of his wife and daughter by being on his own and people trying to deceive him etc is what the films about. The film is a very tense film and is just an amazing film. The film also has excellent acting by a great cast and Paul Walkers acting as Ben Garvey is absolutely brilliant.
... View MoreThis film is similar in the plot like Shutter Island that came two years later. The difference is that this movie is a lot better. And I'm guessing Scorsese was greatly inspired by this movie. Only this wasn't a Scorsese picture with Leonardo Di Caprio in it so nobody noticed this.Some of the best acting from the late Paul Walker. Those of you who thinks he was just a pretty face, watch this.I don't wanna give away too much, except to say that the ending of this movie is a lot more satisfying than the stupid twist and ending of Shutter Island.Another difference is that this movie is very quiet in it's pace and it doesn't try so hard to come off as a horror movie like the moronic Shutter Island, because it doesn't need to.I definitely recommend this movie. And if you haven't seen either this or Shutter Island, watch this and pretend Shutter Island don't excist.
... View MoreI basically agree with Lordlahkra's review. This is a well made Psychological Mystery / Thriller. It is a bit slow moving, but it does intrigue you as to what exactly happened to this guy and if there are indeed some Supernatural influences at play.I always like Bob Gunther's roles; I was gonna reference another role of his where he plays a similar character (actually, he has played MANY characters like this one : ) However, I don't want to give too much away!It is nicely put together and acting is very good. As Lord said, this film is for those who don't mind a slow paced Mystery.Giving this a '7' may be a BIT generous, but If you REALLY like Slow Burners, then you should enjoy this movie.Recommended!
... View MoreIntriguing and truly amazing film. This film not only has an amazing plot twist it also shows the raw and sincere talent of the recently deceased Paul Walker. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who likes mysteries or to someone who watched and enjoyed shutter island. If you do not watch this i promise you are missing out on a astonishing performance by all of the cast.I think the film has something we can all relate to, I personally am i very hard person to please but this film 100% did the trick.It is a travesty that Paul Walker is no longer with us he was an amazing actor and you could tell by all of his performances how dedicated he was to his roles. RIP.
