It took a little while for the ball to get rolling in this film, but it was worth the wait. The acting was so raw and convincing. Well written and directed, in my opinion.

Well written and directed, in my opinion. There was an overwhelming sense of getting sucked into the story line in this little Scottish village where everyone knows each other... and each other's business! Expand

Buena película de suspenso. Son de esas películas que logran hacer sentir al espectador la horrible sensación de tener que cargar con un homicidio todo el tiempo.

Powerful. The consequences that follow an all-too-common instinct to cover one's tracks, as well as going against your sense of right & wrong, seem inevitable and earned by basing every step on very distinct characterizations.

To some, intent matters far less than actions. ''A German- Jewish writer named Kurt Tucholsky wrote, 'The opposite of good is good intentions".

''A German- Jewish writer named Kurt Tucholsky wrote, 'The opposite of good is good intentions". On the moral scales, guilty feelings are what guide people to atonement. If I can simplify the movie Calibre(Directed by Matt Palmer), in the silhoutte of Scottish highlands, I believe the above line would do justice. The script is written at a steady intervals of depicting, the friends, Marcus & Vaughn, reflecting their true self vs the aspiring self. Director Matt Palmer introduces the friends Marcus, as a risk taker, adventure seeker, with no commitments. Vaughn is shown as caring boy friend, expecting father, thrilled family man, clear in his conscience, but fargile, when it comes to handling Marcus.

Vauhn realizes he has got into a terrible flux with Marcus and there is no way he can escape. There is a moment, even Marcus would realize, why did he turn into a criminal. The movie revolves around both the characters, being the protoganist, & also the villains. Director Matt has represented the shades of their fragility & evilness in appropriate proportion. In the end, the suspense is all about how the villagers faciliate punishment for both the friends.

Wow, amazed this was Scottish. Couldn’t really blame the pair it was an accident. That’s the trouble with Scottish people at times they always want to stir the trouble and take matters into their own hands. Casting was excellent and althoughWow, amazed this was Scottish.

Casting was excellent and although low budget this movie certainly did better in terms of ratings than the others of the same genre. Expand
