boring

turned this movie off before it ever ended...and could care less.

i usually watch movies through even when they're bad. somehow i feel like i learn something about how not to make a bad movie by seeing how it goes wrong. that is not something that i'd recommend to someone else but for me i'll tolerate a lot. this movie on the other hand was just too boring to bother with. tv soaps are far more interesting.

it starts with a pseudo black and white film noir murder (clearly its filmed in color and converted to black and white). it missed being perfect by far but was reasonably watchable homage. then time advances forward 50 something years....and theres a sudden fall off of any attempt at anything interesting. the acting is horrible, porn level soap opera. the writing is at best a sketch of an idea that was used as a script rather than finished out. in fact, every step and every part of this movie is a meager sketch of what a movie should be. why this was finished out and produced as a movie, i can't figure out.

my props to the camera work...its fair...and the music...which is good. the rest of the film is a total waste.
