A Cure for Wellness Movie Download

7 / 10

Glossy, original psychological thriller…
…with elements of mystery and Gothic horror, from Fox and co-writer and director Gore Verbinski. Dane DeHaan stars as a cutthroat financial agent in a big Wall Street firm who is tasked with traveling to Switzerland to find the firm’s CEO who has checked into an exclusive health resort. Upon arrival, it doesn’t take long for DeHaan to realize something is not quite right at the seemingly idyllic sanitarium, which is on the grounds of an old castle in the Swiss Alps. But try as he might, DeHaan doesn’t seem able to leave the place, and the hospital’s chief doctor (Jason Isaacs) doesn’t seem in a rush to allow that, either.

This movie looks amazing, with evocative cinematography and terrific locations and sets. The acting is also good, and the cast of mainly lesser-knowns helps the characters to stand out. With a story like this, you know the outcome will be one of two things: either the protagonist is hallucinating/dreaming many of the events, or the events that he’s experiencing are real and the story moves into Weirdsville. I won’t spoil which it is here, but I will say it kept me guessing up to the end, and perhaps beyond. A warning: there is quite a bit of disturbing imagery, and you’ll see a whole lot of people naked that you would rather not have seen.Read More
