Audience Reviews for Urbania

  • May 13, 2014
    Extremely twisty, well acted and shot movie that takes a similar plot device to "Urban Legend", only uses it to make a gritty drama about a lost love. Dan Futterman (who scripted Capote and had a guest role in Will & Grace) is a revelation.

    This movie was well acted and I appreciated the use of colour and light. However, the story itself was rather confusing. I mean, I think i understand most of it, however there are still scenes where I am not entirely sure what really was happening or if what I was seeing was real or not. So its a little bit odd, but not all that bad. What did this movie teach me? We all have needs.
