  "description": "This felt quite similar to The Beasts , but less engaging and what felt like lower stakes. They both center on disputes among neighbors in rural settings, with Bring Them Down having a romantic link shattered by an accident and loss. In both films the antagonists want to better their fading financial prospects by exploiting land once used for farming. This is vacation homes, the other is wind turbines. Bring Them Down is dark, dreary and sparse. There's no score, but there is rising percussion to heighten tension at various points throughout the film. It helps contribute to the feeling of desperation and isolation. It's depressing. Utterly depressing. I simply couldn't connect with or feel for the characters here. I understand the tension, the slights, the crimes, the disagreements but I didn't come away from this feeling much of anything.",
