    Last night I saw this crime thriller and it was better than what I was expecting. The main characters are 2 teenagers so the chances of the crimes being very silly worried me. I remember watching a movie called Super Dark Times a few months ago where the main characters were also teenagers and the crime was very stupid and easy to avoid. What came after the crime in Super Dark Times were awesome thriller/suspense events but the crime itself was idiotic.

    In Don't Tell a Soul the crime isn't the result of idiotic choices. The teenagers are 2 brothers and they have a broken family. Their mother is very sick and they have trouble paying for the medical bills so they are just trying to find a quick fix to their financial issues.

    As a result of the dysfunctional dynamics they have always had in their home, the older brother is now a volatile and dangerous individual. He lacks discipline as well as order in his life and the only thing his younger brother can do is to follow along with his decisions.

    The crazy situation in this movie happens seconds after they commit the crime. They suddenly encounter a security guard who begins to chase them through the woods and ends up trapped in a deep hole in the dirt. With no way out of the hole, and with a broken ankle, this man is now under the mercy of the boys he was chasing just a few moments ago.

    There will be violence, lies, and all sorts of hostility. Psychological games will play be important and the same can be said about the unstable relationship between the brothers. There is also an unexpected twist related to the man trapped in the hole. The cast is very small and there are only 4 characters that are important enough for the story. The movie is also short, it lasts less than 90 minutes but I felt it had a proper length for the story it was telling.

    If you enjoy crime thrillers you should consider checking this movie out. The suspense doesn't reach the highs that can be found in Super Dark Times but it is still a cool film to watch and explores a very unlikely but also original situation.
