The Objective (2008)
7/10
A novelty in the realm of film, not without its flaws
21 June 2012
I am torn between a good mark and a bad grade, but this is certainly not an average film. It is low budget, but well played and executed. Its story is captivating and the atmosphere really spooky, but not explaining anything. It is basically a mood film, something that enters your bones and doesn't let go until the weird ending that just makes you feel you are still in the movie, making it originally effective.

That being said, you can't enjoy this film if you read any spoilers, so stop reading reviews and watch the film. Its main strength is its main flaw as well: all sense is left to the imagination of the viewer, while the technical details are provided by the film makers. Basically, this film is what you want it to be. I would go for sci-fi thriller, but then that would be my favourite genre. I can tell you for sure it is not a romance, but that's as far as I can go :) Try watching it at night with the lights off and enjoy the feel of it.
