The Keeper Audience Reviews

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Sula Shoo The Keeper is a tense drama about a corrections officer who decides to bail out a Haitian immigrant he feels has been wrongfully accused of rape. The film takes a few turns after that, but I wont give the story away. Regina Taylor, a very underrated actress, gives a great performance. Giancarlo Esposito is incredible as the man who tries to rise above his station in life and do good and then comes apart. There's also a lot of interesting stuff in the film about African-American class issues.
