Movie Review (Synopsis):
Movie is about a legend that has been started by the town folk of Cold Rock. Since the children in the town have been going missing, people have said it's an entity known as 'The Tall Man' who has been taking them. Julia Denning ('Jessica Beil' ) is the local nurse who's husband died years earlier. She is soon personally involved as her child is taken. She tries to track down where the child is taken to, but then she finds that there's more to what's happening than she knew. The towns folk start to turn on her and the truth comes out. But there's still more to the story... Who is 'The Tall Man'? And what is the truth?

In an isolated, slowly dying mining town, children are vanishing without a trace - abducted, the townsfolk whisper, by a mysterious entity known locally as "The Tall Man." Town nurse Julia Denning (Jessica Biel) seems skeptical...until her young David disappears in the middle of night. Frantic to rescue the boy, Julia lives every parent's darkest nightmare in this twisting, shock-around-each-corner thriller from acclaimed director Pascal Laugier called The Tall Man.

Jessica Biel stars as the local nurse Julia Denning who resides in the depressed small town of Cold Rock (Washington). A widow of the area’s former doctor, Julia cares for those who will allow her. The town is in many ways a product of its own ignorance, but a few still champion their roles and give back what they can. The town of Cold Rock has also been hit by hard times for quite some time now. Cold Rock has a dark secret in the form of an urban legend attached to it (due to the missing children epidemic – we are also informed in the opening credits).

“The Tall Man” is an entity name that the locals use to describe the dark man who has stolen the area’s children. Some have claimed to see him while others are merely passing the notion along. In any case, there has been a history of Cold Rock’s children turning up missing. The local police and the FBI all report running into dead ends, however the town is looking for someone to take the fall (.to connect to the more ambiguous Tall Man legend). The main investigator for the case is a man by the name of Lt. Dodd (Stephen McHattie). What transpires is best described as “spellbinding”.

Denning is intent on tracking down the supposed abductor and discovering the where-abouts of the children. This notion will lead you into a few surprises that stack on each quite nicely (as in don’t make assumptions). The biggest thrill here is not knowing and then discovering the bigger picture at hand. Where “The The Tall Man” may lack in scares, or horror content, it makes up for in a cohesive well rounded story. And while it’s my intention to stay clear of its reveals, I feel in the end you’ll really be glad you came and experienced it on your own.

Northwest enclave still suffering the economic aftershocks of losing its local mining industry. Dubbed "the Tall Man" by frightened parents, the shadowy figure snatches kids in the blink of an eye, attracting frenzied TV news reports while leaving a federal investigator (Stephen McHattie) and the local sheriff (William B. Davis) clueless about how to crack the case. In contrast to most of the dirt-poor residents, Julia Denning (Biel) runs the area's medical clinic and lives in a sizable house isolated in the woods, but even she can't escape the kidnapping spree when her young boy, David (Jakob Davies), is abducted from their home one night.

But it's shortly after this that Laugier drops his first major twist, and reveals that much of what we presumed to know about the characters may not be true. Here the film pivots from straightforward thriller into a more mysterious drama, and beefs up the screen time for mute trailer-park teen Jenny (Jodelle Ferland), who has been lurking on the sidelines and serving as occasional narrator.

Even if much of the action makes little sense in retrospect, Laugier clearly relishes playing with audience expectations, and skillfully parses out key reveals to command interest in the continuously evolving narrative. Welcome echoes of the work of Stephen King and TV's "The X-Files" (on which McHattie and Davis were both memorable guest stars) increase suspicion that something supernatural is afoot, and Laugier keeps teasing that possibility until the very end.

Actress Jessica Biel gives a powerfully authentic performance which easily carries the script farther beyond its potentially bland expectations. With her more recent run of feature roles, it’s no wonder that she is gaining attention after her great performance here. Even when dialog is unneeded, you can still see the purpose within her eyes.

“The Tall Man” is a film I’m expecting many to have a mix of reactions. Mainly due to it being marketed as a horror film and it being in reality something far different. That element is here much like in the film “The Village”, but it seems to hold a deeper purpose based on social commentary. With that being said, I thought this was a fantastic film which “could have” unrolled in a manner that fits within the formula we expect, but in fact aims to make a statement about the quality of life for young children.

Biel plays Julia, the local nurse in an isolated and decaying Pacific Northwest mining town. The town’s children have been disappearing one by one and the townsfolk blame the Tall Man (no relation to the character from the eighties Phantasm films), a mysterious, shrouded giant who some claim to have glimpsed in the nearby forest.

Laugier, who also wrote the script, sets the mood efficiently if conventionally, with lots of rain and thunder and some nicely spooky locations (found in British Columbia, Canada). Initially the film seems headed in the direction of supernatural horror, though there’s none of the extreme violence that earned Martyrs plaudits from the hardcore horror crowd (and got Laugier associated with the New French Extremity movement).

The twists certainly keep things interesting but they change the dramatic focus so abruptly that it’s hard to stay with the film through to its fourth wall-breaking final frame.
