"The Pretty Reckless: Going to Hell" is the title of these under 4.5 minutes and this is of course a music video. The woman you see on the photo here is Taylor Momsen as she is the lead singer from the band The Pretty Reckless. Well, what he have here did not impress me one bit unfortunately. Soulless rock music of the most forgettable kind and style over substance from beginning to end. The intent was clearl to polarize here, maybe to shock at the same time, but also keep it kids-friendly because teenagers were really the ones supporting Momsen the most back then. Her career has gone to hell you could say looking at the stuff she has(n't) done lately. She was around the age of 20 when she made this one here and now she is close to 30. Her career definitely could have turned out better, but maybe the talent isn't there. I wish I could say she is a more talented musician than actress, but what I saw here tells me that she is just as forgettable in the singing department. No artistic value I saw in here. Pity.
As for the acting side, her biggest achievement may still be that she taught us that both males and females can be called Taylor. She is rather the equivalent to Taylor Lautner there than to Taylor Sheridan in terms of talent. Or absence there. So yeah, skip this one, creepy contact lenses and a lot of black are pretty much all that stays a bit in the mind from this song here. It's the rock music equivalent to utterly generic pop music and the music video is also pretty much a failure unfortunately. Certainly telling that director Tim Mattias has never worked on a project before or after this. Probably not our loss. Oh and if you thought Matt Damon was a part of this, I have to dispapoint you too. It's Mark Damon, one of the band members I assume. Lowest rating possible from me here. Highly not recommended.
