AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Platypuschow Similar in method to Seven (1995) this well cast little thriller doesn't live up to its potential.A new criminal has emerged, one who presents his victims with a horrific choice such as which limb he'll cut off or which family member they have to kill.The concept has potential, the execution however is lacking.The movie has moments of intelligence and strong writing but sadly that's all it has, moments.Katheryn Winnick, Kevin Pollak & briefly Bruce Dern star in this lackluster effort that should have been a great deal better.For a far more intelligent and well conceived movie about forced difficult choices then I suggest Would You Rather (2012) The Good: Couple of nice touches in the script The Bad: Very underwhelming Potential squanderedThings I Learnt From This Movie: Bruce Dern looks identical in every film he's ever been in If Scarlett Johansson & Teresa Palmer had a baby it'd look like Katheryn Winnick

cayax22 I don't agree with every one's reviews on here. Honestly, for a moment i thought about not even trying to watch it because every one was so negative. Yes, it did not have a lot of action or gore like you would expect a thriller to be. But the movie was not bad at all. I don't think i have ever seen the main chick in any other movie before, but she did great. Of course Pollock is an awesome actor so it was great on his part. The movie is worth giving it a try. You honestly will never know unless you try and you might get angry later for not even trying to watch it. And like I said, it is not as bad as people made it seem. I mean, the beginning had me hooked and because of it I couldn't stop watching it.

Neil Welch A teenager wakes and finds her parents tied up, and a deranged assailant gives her 60 seconds to choose which one of them must die before forcing her to carry out the killing herself. This pre-titles sequence leads to a story of a psycho nut, offering his victims impossible choices, tied up with a trainee reporter and her Chief of Police dad (and possibly also with her mother's suicide years earlier) The reviews on IMDb all seem disappointed that this isn't Saw, or a variation of it. It is instead a psychological suspense thriller which develops steadily, without much in the way of action sequences, and with a relatively low gore quotient (but I said low, not non-existent). It is well photographed, well acted, relatively well-written, and a satisfying small scale thriller (satisfying unless you want it to be something it isn't). It keeps you guessing throughout and the explanation, as eventually revealed, does not cheat you.The only thing seriously wrong with the film is the ending (as distinct from the resolution of the story), which is somewhat perfunctory and slightly unsatisfying, and followed by a wholly unnecessary and unconvincing "shock" addition.But overall this is not a bad movie.

Claudio Carvalho Fiona Wagner (Katheryn Winnick) is studying for the master's degree in journalism and still grieves her mother Samantha that committed suicide in the Crescent Hotel three years ago. Her father, Detective Tom Wagner (Kevin Pollak), is investigating the brutal death of the lawyer Elliot Vincent, who was murdered by his teenager daughter that was forced to choose between killing him or having her mother, little brother and herself killed by the sadistic criminal that had broken in their house.When the pianist Simon Campbell (Tom Cleary) is forced to choose between losing his fingers or his hearing, Tom realizes that a deranged serial-killer is attacking people. Meanwhile, Fiona is contacted by the criminal through the codename ISO_17 that shows pictures of the model Jenna (Kate Nauta), who had had to choose between her face or her vision, with her face destroyed. Fiona recalls that her mother had mentioned something about choice in her suicide note and she decides to investigate the sadistic man, disclosing secrets about her own family."Choose" is a thriller with a scary and sick beginning, when a daughter has to choose between killing her beloved father or her family. Unfortunately the story is terrible, and even fans of sadistic death might not like this flick. The resemblance of the face of the unknown Katheryn Winnick with Scarlett Johansson is impressive. In the end, seeing this movie is an awful choice. My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "A Escolhida" ("The Chose One")
