That was an excellent one.
Sadly Over-hyped
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
I loved this film picked it up not knowing what it was, and couldn't turn it off. If you enjoy character plays and films that think this would be your stop. I thought the interplay between two highly talented actors was impressive. This is more of a two man show at a theater than a film. I loved the minimalistic set and the entire feel set by the director. Kudos to the actors for taking part in a film that realistically never had a chance to be a "hit", but would stretch them as actors. Also, this film would make for a good discussion film for a group of friends. I have no idea how this film was greenlight given how Hollywood has been catering to people with a room temperature iq for long time now. Enjoy this rare nugget of quality film making and storytelling!
This movie was so strange, so very hard to follow, and made practically no sense at all, until the very end. The premise was actually unique, but it took so long to get to it, though two hours of fairly boring dialogue and scattered flashes of scattered scenes. I wondered why I had never heard of this movie. I am surprised that either Sikking or Elizondo would have been involved in this picture, but then again, like many pictures, the script might have looked good, and the fault is in the final editing production. Miss this one if you haven't seen it. It would have been a much better book.
This film is lifeless, dull, and driven completely by cliche, with a "twist ending" you can guess during the opening credits. The average high school one-act is more interesting. I can't understand how it got so many 10-star ratings. James B., is that you?
I have seen many films in my life. Some amazing, some dire. However, this film surpasses anything I have ever encountered. As film goers we sit and tolerate a slow start, confused plots, etc., in the hope that they improve. This film does not. I am loathe to even write about it, as it has already wasted two hours of my life. Be warned the marketing bods have been at work and the back of the video cover even makes this sound exciting, 20,000 digital effects and out-of-this-world mystery. If I every have to watch this film again, I will end it all. Officially ...... The worst film I have ever seen. And I've seen Nothing But Trouble.
