The quality varies so greatly over its short 82 minute run time that it's hard to get a read on Sweetheart. Maybe my expectations were just too high because of all the positive buzz it got, but I didn't enjoy Sweetheart overall, just in parts.

Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product.

Cleverly directed on a low-budget, 'Sweetheart' is a streamlined, satisfying mix of old-school monster action and island survival thrills. - Jake Watt
