Good concept, poorly executed.

Don't listen to the negative reviews

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Blair Witch Project had a more steady camera than this garbage. Horrible writing, acting, lighting, cinematography, and directing. When a movie has the same writer and director, I'm always worried- having a different director allows for two visions to unite and for the second person to see any plot holes the writer may have missed. Clearly this plot holed waste of time was written, directed, and produced by the same person- because no one in their right mind would green light this "film"... It's almost worth watching just to see how horrible it is. A few notes for anyone trying to make a B-Rate horror flick... 1. Opening credits are not needed when everyone is a NO NAME- thanks for wasting more of my time to read names I don't know or care about. 2. Get to the point, don't drag dialogue that is meaningless 3. Character development is not needed, unless it's an Oscar worthy performance- do not "try" to character development more than 2 people, I'm watching b- rate horror for fun, scares, and gore - not some backstory that means nothing on 5+ characters. 4. Lighting, yes you can cheat camera angles and film in 2 different locations and have it appear to be the same location- BUT when one angle has a blue tint and the other has a red, it's beyond laughable... Or when it's extremely sunny on the white guys face but the black girl has zero visible facial features bc it's so dark in the same room as the white guy. It's just sad, I've seen high schoolers make better movies. Do not watch, unless you want NO GORE, BAD ACTING, PLOT HOLES, and GAPS in the FILM, COMPLETELY MISSING AND UNEXPLAINED... It's not even funny how bad this movie is.

"Sorrow" is a thriller that's tough to follow, a little confusing, and ultimately disappointing.The film starts with a crime scene, where one man overdoses, another woman is shot in the head, another man is killed by police, and another woman (Mila) is shot in the shoulder and wounded. When the police go to question her, she had left the hospital.Then, in a series of flash-backs, flash-forwards, and (I think) flash-sideways, we find out that after a nasty breakup, Mila got kidnapped by a series of three nutjobs. They keep her trapped in a house while they bring women back to the house and kill them. We follow her attempts to escape her plight. Meanwhile, in the current timeline story, the police are trying to track Mila down to find out why she was in that house and what happened...I respect the effort here. The acting is pretty good. The cast is unusually integrated -- the bad guys are a Latino man, a white guy, and a Black woman. The creep's victims are two white women and two Black women. Some of the scenes are well done. But too many problems hurt it. Police work is tough to do in a low budget film given how well they are done in TV police procedurals. There are leaps in logic -- the film never fully explains how Mila know some important information and the police reference acts that we know nothing about. And finally, the film fails to resolve the basic mysteries and questions that it raised.I won't say to avoid it, but when all was said and done, I found it a bit disappointing.

I have to agree, this has been the worst movie I have ever watched, albeit only for 30 minutes. I also agree how long does the camera need to be on hair & tweezers? the camera appears to be pitched on someone's shoulders, bumping, jerking.....and the acting!!!! well that has to be the worst I have ever seen. The story jumps all over the place, from one scene to the next not making and sense. I watched this on the basis of the first review, and let me tell you it will be my last time I read a review without reading all the others as well. Then I cant/wont blame anyone else but myself. I must admit, I will give it another go tonight.......I'll start from the beginning.....but I doubt I will get through it. I give the movie a 1.......only because there was no zero.

The acting is so bad we had to turn it off after 10 min. Seriously.... I'm not sure what these other guys were thinking when they posted good reviews about this movie because it's was actually painful to watch. The entire cast seemed to just be reading their lines. There may have been an opportunity to have a decent plot but honestly you'll be too distracted by the horrific casting choices. The filming style was clearly due to a low budget, which is not nearly as distracting as the poor editing. Seriously how long does the camera need to be focused on hair in tweezers? Honestly I tried to watch it 3 times and just couldn't do it.
