Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

interstellarpig This film is only vindicated by those souls who stumble upon it because of Carmen Kass' billing. Truth be told, this film was somewhat entertaining. Was it a good film? Not really. Perhaps in intention, but not in execution. It is true that the city scape in which it was shot was quite beautiful, and some shots were reasonably decent, but for the most part, the acting was pretty terrible (although if you are a Kass fan you probably wouldn't care) and the plot was contrived at best. Positive things about the film include...potential? Perhaps if the characters were a bit more explored the film might be more engaging. As it was it felt like one giant cut scene to some interactive "whodunit" computer game. Carmen's acting wasn't as notoriously bad as I've heard, but then again she really wasn't required to do much; stand and look pensive (surprise, surprise). She may have potential in other films and make a decent transition into acting like other models before her (i.e. Diane Kruger, Famke Janssen), but really who knows. Although something I would like to know is if anyone from Estonia had an opinion on the film. Kass is relatively obscure to the mainstream here in the U.S. but perhaps she is popular in Estonia? As such, Set Point might have been an actual theatrical release in her native country and not an independent film as I might have presumed. If that is the case than I feel really sorry for those who actually paid to see this film in public.

gaborski Mystery, Murder, Romance, Gangsters and - Tennis. It all takes place during a long summer night in Tallinn, the northern European capital of Estonia. This quaint historical Old Town serves as a lively backdrop to a seemingly existential marital strife that spirals out of control into suspicion and jealousy, involving an array of seedy and curious characters. These disparate lives will ultimately collide, and before the night is over, someone will be dead. The action is deliberate, the dialog is philosophical, and the visuals create a strange, almost hallucinatory dream-flow. If you are in the mood for - a unique experience in an undiscovered foreign land, this film is definitely worth the trip.

dqfamily This film is not your typical thriller, it has depth and character not often found in your generic suspense film. The acting is well done and the twists and turns will keep you guessing until the end. The characters are well developed and multidimensional. This film was highly enjoyable and makes you think.There are many interesting themes that this film deals with, and it is able to entwine them all into a complex and powerful storyline.The writing and directing are well done and the entire production ought to be applauded for creating such an entertaining work outside of the studio system and without anything close to the typical budget for a Hollywood film.

dalepelton-1 In the guise of a thriller, an interesting landscape of psychological conflict is revealed. A young girl, psychologically abused by her wealthy patron doesn't know of any other life. Another woman, trapped in her marriage to a rogue cop, is plotting her escape. "Set Point" captures the new wave of Estonian women, upwardly mobile, impassioned with luxury and fashion, in an existential tone, the camera focusing on details in rooms empty and soulless in the Gothic city of Tallin. The film would have benefited if the cinematographer had created a film noir effect, a city painted with sinister light.The director has effectively created a claustrophobic world, a reflection of the characters who are trapped in the fantasies of their own creation. The renown Estonian model, Carmen Kass, in the role of Alice, is convincing in her fresh interpretation of the kept girl---a girl who for the first time, is discovering love.
