FILM REVIEWS AND NEWS

Pursued is one fascinatingly mixed bag of a film. Following the sudden death of her father, teenager Lark (Madison Lawlor) begins to suspect her mum’s new boyfriend, whom she’s never met, of being a murderer... until she doesn’t.

What is set up here is not entirely understood until the payoff of the movie, and this is the result of screenplay and pacing
