I won't waste time on dissecting this movie, but wanted to leave at least a couple of comments to dissuade users from taking credence in the four reviews written prior to this one.
First, it should be noted that this is "not the worst movie ever made," or whatever the typical line is coming from overly judgmental film "reviewers" who write bad reviews after having falsely high expectations to begin with. There are certainly worse movies in existence, but this is indeed what I would call a loser.
Second, each of the four reviews prior to this one were written within 7 days of each other and by users who have not reviewed a single other film. This leads me to believe that they are not on the level. May have been one of those festival pieces that passed out free tix and prizes in exchange for reviews, maybe they're folks associated with the film...I'm not really sure. Regardless, there's something off the level with these, and after watching this film, nothing they say stacks up as true or could be construed as such.
Third, every facet of the film is done poorly. The acting, directing, editing, cinematography, sound, etc are all bad. Not that I haven't seen good indie movies with several of the above facets also true, but this is not one of them. Call it a pet peeve, but I detest when the sound is not done by overhead or boomed mics, rather, by whatever ambient mic is on the (non-professional) camera. Everything sounds boomy and far away. Though, the picture is not as bad as is usually seen in these types of poorly made flicks.
Lastly, it's just not good. I mean, I've watched thousands of movies, of which the majority have been independently made films with low budgets. It's totally possible to make a decent film on a micro- budget. This is simply not one of them, and doesn't come close. I would actually rate this a 2/10, but with all the fake reviews and ratings, I decided to give it an even 1/10 to help (albeit minimally) bring the rating back down to reality.
Hope this helps. Don't waste your time with this stinker. There are loads of bad movies you can watch, that aren't this bad.
