Re: Swallow It starts VERY well and has some really good ideas but then ends up being about abortion which did not resolve anything what comes before. Haley Bennett is the perfect cast for this type of role though no one else is given any character to build on. Decent but had the potential to be great if the ending landed.

Re: Swallow I thought this was pretty solid and easily Haley Bennett's best performance. The rest of the cast wasn't given much though, but it kept me engaged throughout and some bits really disturbed/unsettled me.

Re: Swallow An interesting and good drama, the supporting characters and some of the story lack some depth, but it's well shot with some idyllic sets and it's a nice kind of small film. It's eerie and engaging, mostly all thanks to Haley Bennett, she absolutely stuns with a great performance.
