All Souls

What an absolute waste of time watching this. If I could give it zero stars I would. Feeble acting, diabolical script, poor sound quality. I will never watch this again. Sorry but it is truly hideous with 25percent of the words seeming to start with F. Good creative actor lines.... NOT!!! The best actor was the kid. God knows why they went out dressed like that. For someone who doesn't like violence against women and anti drugs, this could not have been a worse film to watch. Also lots of flashing lights and didn't see any warning g about it. I'm not easily offended but I would have been had I gone to the cinema to view it. Absolute rubbish!!

Emmanuelle Pickett directorial debut is impressive.

All Souls deliver beautiful cinematography, stellar performances from the likes of Mikey Madison, G-Eazy and Mia Love Disnard along with a score that adds an extra layer of drama and suspense. While All Souls takes us on a dangerous undercover operation in the street of a composite of Los Angeles, it also taps into the heart, resilience and desperation of a mother who is willing to do anything to protect her daughter. While there are moments that are predictable in the ploy the film dives heavy into character work that carries the film along with its production team.

Really looking forward to Emmanuelle Pickett next project along with the cast involved future in cinema.

Madison is gonna goe places for her award but before that she made this little crime drama, fair I haven't seen her before the Oscar's one the recognition that deserves, making low budget films is the beginning of actor or actress career, here review: Look the plot is so noticeable n predictable, for everything else is just stander crime thriller, following same suspense shots a la Cellular or Phonebooth.

Film delivers on the greediness n suspense that makes this movie enjoyable.

Sure don't bring new just mother caring for her little while getting roll up in stings.

There's nothing to say in the acting, all came out from Michael Mann flick.

Give up to the camera chase that work perfectly fine.

So conclude it didn't bring recognition to Madison, but the thrills of story entertains.

Is hardly wanna be Alpha Dogs knockoff but is something else short n not stop.

Fans of crime thrillers and dramas are sure to be delighted with this directorial debut from Emmanuelle Pickett. The intense journey of the protagonist and the great length she was willing to take was executed and shown in such relatable and straightforward manner. The performance of the protagonist was nothing short of amazing. I just wished that the movie was longer and the story was clearer. At times it gets confusing what was really happening because of too much shooting and confrontation scenes, and I wished that the story arcs of the characters were firmly established. Also, dark cinematography was too utilized which made the film too serious to watch.

A forgettable movie that is semi-entertaining in its core, but failing in its execution, not-credible characters (besides the daughter and to some extents the mum), cheesy, semi-cliched, done-a-hundred-times sub-plots, underused or useless supporting cast, a weak writing that makes the movie having 1h12min of runtime and if it meant to show a mother-daughter relationship, it could have as well been made as a humorous comedy and would have been a lot more successful.
