6/10
An entertaining thriller with a few strange moments.

Warning: Spoilers
I found A LONELY PLACE TO DIE at my local rental shop and even though I had nothing else to watch I decided to give it a go since everything else looked more like crap. The film started off good enough to grab my attention so at least it had promise. Later in the film there were a few moments that were mostly strange. Most notably there was a scene with a bizarre street festival that didn't really look right because even though the film is set in Scotland I've never heard of them throwing street festivals if they did I doubt it would be something that weird.

The other moments range from characters doing very stupid things and sharpshooters who shoot so bad you'd be safer standing right in front of their guns. But given I did decide to overlook these things and despite those moments the film did keep me entertained throughout so if someone should see this film it might be best not to take it too seriously.

All in all, I give this film a six for entertainment value however I think I might give it a four for plot. Even though it had potential the execution was rather poor.
