This film tries to do way too much. The plot direction is all over the place. The dialogue at times is bad, and some of the characters even though advertised as real people, come off as fantasy characters at the most.Among these characters are two cops who make the two cops from "Super Bad" look like Einsteins. On the other hand, the acting is good, on behalf of Tim Daly, Sarah Steele, William Sadler, and of course Hayden Pantierre, the rest of the supporting cast range from average to mediocre. The film itself deals with issues that are definitely not appropriate for everyone, and in fact could be considered disturbing. i will not dwell into these issues i will just simply refer you to watch if not read the plot summary of "The Quiet" on Wikipedia and then you will have an understanding of what your getting into with this film, however this film implies alot more, than it actually displays, which works in it's favor. Otherwise i don't think this film would have been appropriate at all.

Overall a decent film that i wouldn't recommend, but a person would probably see anyways out of mere curiosity as fans of one of the films stars. Which in that case, Hayden Pantierre fans will feel a little disappointed because out of the good performances i mentioned above, she has the least amount of screen time.

The ambiguity of the film will either cause you to like it, or find it fustrating. I found it fustrating.

This movie was horrible simply put.

average. had a pretty decent twist.

Not a terrible movie, but you seem to lose direction with what really happened to the cheerleader (not that Hayden Panettiere is being stereo-typed). I'm a Tim Daly fan, so I thought he was very good!

Con unos 30 minutos iniciales muy buenos, la pelicula va decayendo hasta convertirse en un verdadero mamarracho con un final absolutamente bochornoso. Uno puede tolerar ciertas libertades que se tomen los directores en cuanto a manipulacion de la realidad, o como presentan determinadas circustancias, en beneficio de la historia o bien de lo que se quiere contar, pero para todo hay un limite, la pelicula en un momento entra en el terreno de lo Absurdo.
Eso si destaca muchisimo la actuacion de William Sadler, actor que no tiene hechas casi peliculas malas-

The obvious selling point here is Hayden, but considering she is kidnapped she's MIA for 90% of the movie. Although she does look damn hot the other 10%. Beyond that there isn't much here.

Although she does look damn hot the other 10%. Beyond that there isn't much here. While it's not all bad, this indie has a strange plot chock full of holes and an even worse ending.
