Wrong Place

96 minute film, 70 minutes too long

Every single scene is stretched out beyond imagination, packed with needless and unrealistic dialogue. There's a scene where a man tells another to deliver these letters, a normal person would reply "okay" or "sure" etc... but the guy ended up waffling on and on for ages about how he will deliver the letters.

Bruce Willis does not act. He just repeats his spoon fed lines with little to no emotion.

Jake, the antagonist, is the biggest imbecile villain ever, constantly making mistake after mistake, doing the dumbest things. And his motive is rubbish anyway. Goes on this failed murdering spree just because someone shot his meth dealing, murdering father in the knee.

Captain East is the most incompetent cop, fails to do the simplest tasks properly and literally is narrating himself the entire time. One scene he is narrating his walking "left foot, right foot" etc.

Chloe (Ashley Greene) was the best actor of a crap bunch.

The music was obnoxiously loud, drowning out dialogue half the time, and the music choice was terrible, it's like they asked a 3 year old to click randomly on Spotify.

Then there's another villain called Virgil, who I couldn't for the life of me understand half of what he was saying. He sounded like an Italian trying to do a Southern USA accent, and ended up sounding like a croaking frog.

Christ, what a chappy film, given as a 10-15 minute short film, probably would've been decent, but too long too rubbish.

Oh my god, where do I start. When you push play, you're in the wrong place, which is anywhere you can see your tv. How about Wrong Acting, the acting was beyond terrible. Acting in a soap opera. It's like a 12 year old wrote the script. I'm assuming all of the non-main characters are preforming for the first time. How about Wrong Editing. Take for instance the drone footage as the car drives down the road out of camera and they keep recording for like 10 seconds. It's Alabama, not beautiful scenery. I thought they were setting up for a commercial. The conversations in this film don't align with the movie. I swear this doesn't makes sense.

We all kept saying: Please be over, please be over.

Nope, more torture.

And you can't even blame this one on Willis, because he was way better than the terrible directing - once again from Mike Burns, who also gave us the another flop Out of Death. Burns, who's filmmaking experience is thirty-two Music Supervisor credits, couldn't even get the score right. It was annoyingly loud, overbearing, constant and unfitting. But even worse, was the writing by Bill Lawrence, who oh shocker here, also wrote Out of Death with Burns. Boys, please take up a new hobby and leave the camera and keyboard alone.

The directing was worse than a fifth-grade drama class production. I've seen better scene changes and fade-outs by 1990's wedding videographers. The long, dragged out and unnecessary scenes were relentless. His failure to direct his cast, scenes, camera shots, etc were the biggest failures I've seen since... well, Out of Death.

But the writing was the biggest joke. It was the never ending cat and mouse game - on repeat, with ridiculous dialogue and more holes in the plot than a wheel of Swiss cheese. How do these two look at their final cut and say "yes, this is perfect, let's go to market"? I actually feel bad for Willis having this nonsense on his resume as one of his final films. Thus my very generous 3/10, all points going to Willis giving it his best shot with the garbage he had to work with.

Saw Bruce Willis as the starring role and just knew I would like it. He must owe someone a lot of money. Absolutely his worst film. Very poorly written. Terrible acting. Not even a good story. Anyone who paid money to see this should start a gofundme to get reimbursed not only for the money they spent, but for damages as well. I am writing this as I am watching the movie and it keeps getting worse. I am having trouble coming up with at least the six hundred characters needed to complete this gawd awful review so please bear with these last sentences. It is a 90 minute movie that only needed 20 minutes.

I've never felt the need to leave a review for a movie before, but I had to. Sometimes movies are all bad, this isn't the case. The script was average and predictable, but overall it at least had a story that sounded interesting enough to watch. The acting wasn't the worst you'll ever see, mainly because of Bruce Willis. The director of this movie should be absolutely ashamed of himself though. The lines were poor, the editing of the movie was diabolical and I've never fancied myself as a director before, but it felt like minimum effort that even a complete novice couldn't have screwed this up so badly. The acting was the only good thing about this movie, despite clearly being directed to do/say things that didn't flow well or feel right for that scene, they made the most of it.

Should you watch it? Sure. But only if you're sat on your phone throughout and only looking up when something barely watchable comes along. I certainly wouldn't schedule this in as a 'Must watch', it's something to put on in the background whilst you're doing something else and already bored out of your mind.

I've seen movies much worse than this one before, but this is the only one that I felt had so much more going for it but the director completely botched it and turned a potential 5 out of 10 into a 2.
