Summary: Would Merging Pasts Thrill Someone? I say, yes.
Review: 'The Unsaid' is a distinct movie, in that it makes many different attempts in the name of alleviating suspense in a film. Psychology and the problems enhanced by its nature usually form the grounds of the plots of most American movies. This movie, is an addition. But, it goes beyond that state, by presenting a psychological quandary and developing on it until the end of the movie.

To be more specific, Andy Garcia plays the therapist, who has lost his son recently by his suicide. One of his fellows asks for help in a case of one of her patients, Vincent Kartheiser who comes out to have an extraordinary past. Having sworn not to deal with anymore patients, Garcia still cannot refrain himself from seeing and helping him. The fact that Andy hasn't been able to forget the pain of his son's loss will make Andy's therapy of Vincent very special, because after some time with him, Vincent will reminisce Andy's own son.

Moreover, in the course of the movie, what you think you know will be altered by the surprising revelations. Different pasts will merge with others. The movie will become a thrilling psychological tension. You definitely do not want to miss this movie, by any means. Nothing, but 'The Unsaid' will be on your mind for a long time, after you see the movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: brillant and wonderful in almost everyway.
Review: A supenseful story of a problematic kid played and nailed greatly by vincent kartheiser- you know the kid who played the son in the movie Alaska. And how he gets help from a psycholoist played wonderfully by Andy Garcia. Just remember not everybody is what they seem!!! one bad thing though there are no deleted scenes on the dvd even though the director mentions deleted scenes many times in the director's commentary. So if you can live with that it is a really really great movie!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: well done
Review: A well made film with good performances dealing with a difficult subject. This psychological thriller is compelling and realistic. Difficult to watch at times because of what the characters go through, emotionally as well as physically. The scenes are well staged and well edited.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: depressed Garcia meets a creepy Kartheiser
Review: Andy Garcia (Twisted,Godfather part 3) stars as a psych professor who suffered a loss in his family when his teenaged son took his own life. Many years later he is divorced and has custody of his teenaged daughter, played by Linda Cardellini (Tv's ER, Scooby Doo). Garcia agrees to help out a former student, played by Teri Polo (Domestic Disturbance, Meet The Parents), because she is working on a case that involves a kid, Vincent Kartheiser (Tv's Angel, Dandelion), who seems to be keeping a secret deep inside himself and soon Garcia is plunged in a web of lies and so on. Vincent Kartheiser is the only person who fuels this thing in place. Garcia produced this project but I didnt really care for his charcter. He was just to bland. Some good moments but yet again Garcia weighs it down a bit.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: SILENCE NOT SO GOLDEN
Review: Andy Garcia gives one of his best performances in this little known thriller. He plays a psychiatrist whose sixteen year old son commits suicide. The opening sequence leading to this is extremely well done, with a disturbing sense of loss and hopelessness captured in Garcia's performance. Three years later, Garcia has grown a beard, lost his wife and daughter, and has given up treating patients. He is asked by former student Teri Polo to look at a young man who is about to be released from a home for disturbed boys. Is he ready to come out into society? Vincent Kartheiser is excellent as the young boy, who witnessed the murder of his mother by his father while a little boy. Inevitably, Vincent becomes involved with Garcia's estranged daughter (Linda Cardellini), and we find out that nothing is quite as it seems. Initially vague about the reason for Kyle's suicide, we find out later the tragic event which led up to this suicide, and we also learn much more about the murder of Kartheiser's mother.
One plot hole that hurts: what happened to Troy, Shelley's brutish boyfriend. Kartheiser shows up with his car, but where's Troy???
Otherwise, THE UNSAID is a gripping, painfully involving movie that is worth viewing.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: A Little Known Gem Of A Film Worth A Sawbuck FO' SHIZZY!
Review: I picked this movie up to rent on a Saturday (as there was nothing else left on the shelves). I am not a big fan of Andy Garcia & wasn't familiar with any of the other actors in this gem, but I have to admit that this film was excellent! Lots of drama, mystery, violence, & a great surprise ending. I don't wanna give the film away so... I highly recommend this for viewing. I might just BUY it because if I rent it two times more I could own at the great price of $9.99. Highly worth a SAWBUCK, I'll tell you that!

Rating: 5 stars
