River

Plot holes all over the place. Badly written characters and dialogues. Implausible in general. No thrills or suspense at all. The worst beyond belief episode is the citizen kane compared to this bag of rotten potatoes. I never felt so bad spending time on watching a film. Missed it's target by far.

This film was just trash. Absolutely brain dead. 1 star for the music. Even though it was a little too present, but some nice sounds. I regret having spent money in this. I didn't want to watch any more of it after 10 minutes but went until the end and it just didn't get any better. It is not that everything has to be explained, but at least something. You can't just demand the audience to accept everything without any justification. There is no story.. Someone being sad and grieving is not a story. As much as I'd like to support other women... Worst film in a long time.

The most stupid film I have ever seen. I'm no pro, but if I were a teacher at film school I'd use this one to show how it's NOT working. Falls flat and boring. Don't waste your time or money on that.

Some may think 1 out of 10 is a bit hard, but think about all the films in the world. I don't even know if there is any film I'd give 10. I'd give Alien a strong 9 and this is a real masterpiece. I'd give 9 for apocalypse now and 8 for shining. 1 for this is even too much. There is almost no story arch at all. It repeats itself all the time, the characters are flat and the writing is... I don't even know... just not good. No suspense.. no conclusion or anything in the end. As if she took the short and just threw a few characters in. You could cut out that bearded guy entirely and it wouldn't change a damn thing. I suggest to read a few books.

Do you know the so bad it's good again thing ? It's not the case. The movie just sucks unfortunately. It's superficial nonsense and nothing really happens. One could cut this film into a shorter version than the previous short attempt. I wish no one to have a therapist like the one in the film. What kind of store is this even ? The characters serve no real purpose and in almost every scene some characters pop up out of the blue. River and Amanda are doing things in the garden and looking for the time capsule after being inside doing other stuff. And then eureka Jamie pops up. Like he was wandering around for hours in the backyard and no one is asking dude how did you get here. As if a 12 year old wrote that script. Oh boy.
