If I've sounded a bit dismissive of "Take Shelter" in the past, it's not been by intention. I barely knew it was coming this month, and it hasn't been at the top of my mind. It seems, forgive me, somewhat simple. Man has dreams of storms, invests too much money into building a tornado shelter, and starts to lose his mind. Spooky stuff, and I don't mean that as a joke. This is how a decent thriller should be made, with motivating performances as well. Michael Shannon and Jessica Chastain both look to be in great form here. I'd be interested to see it if it comes around anytime soon. Still, I'm not rushing out for it.
