Trigger Man

A simple story line but not gimmicky and indeed its ordinariness is what made the film interesting. Some scenes where there was no movement of any kind were too long. No doubt this was to create the sense of "ordinariness" but in actuality the situation was anything but ordinary because there were two killers lurking. The scenery was idyllic which, as with the ordinariness of the hunting trip generally, masked the evil hidden in this placid setting.

When people say there is nothing but walking around for a good hour, this is not an exaggeration. In fact, it may be too generous, because for about five whole minutes the three hunters sit and do absolutely nothing. I thought the screen had frozen and so did the person I was watching it with. But no, they just weren't moving. And this is LONG before there is any "action" so it's not like the film is building tension.

Unfortunately, when the action finally begins the viewer may have been literally lulled to sleep and it's blink-and-you-miss.

The movie takes much too long to get going and when it does the characters just make stupid choices. It's an Idiot Plot. There is a lot of shaky cam and inexplicable cuts that make it impossible to know what is going on. I know this is going for the Blair Witch kind of feel, but the movie takes too long to do anything or build any tension so rather than feeling nervous at the shaky parts, you just tune out.

The characters are non-entities. It felt like the actors weren't even giving an effort, and I can't really blame them. I remarked to my companion that this seemed like a first year film school student thing. An "A" for effort kind of thing for whoever made this. Nice try buddy, I'm sure you'll make a good movie next time.

Reggie, Ray, and Sean are New York City friends on a hunting trip in the woods. It's a long day of disappointment. There are no bucks to be found. Out of the blue, bullets suddenly start flying at them.

This is a no budget indie film. The most notable name here is Ti West. It's really early in his career. This is supposed to be inspired by true events and the writing isn't much more than that. This starts with a tour of a bodega and then it's a walk in the woods. It's not the most compelling filmmaking. The actors are nobodies. Maybe they're Ti's school friends. The first half is a student film. The action picks up for the last half especially the last ten minutes in the abandoned buildings. It's bloody and it has some tension.

This movie is very very very poor. I have seen better movies.

There was a bit of tension but not much to make you jump out of your chair. It begins slowly with the building of tension. Which is not a success. At least if you ask me. Though at some points or moments I must say it was a bit funny when people got shot and how they went down.

They should had made it something like Scary Movie, then it might be a better movie. Because I watched only pieces of the movie by skipping scenes and it got to boring through out the movie. I must say that i felt sleepy watching this movie so I sure can say it is not worth it.

Don't waste time on even thinking to do something with this movie besides leaving it where it already is. Somewhere very dusty..

"Trigger Man" is definitely the most boring and silliest movie I've ever seen in my life. My aunt's holiday videos are more fascinating.

The actors seem to be recruited at uglypeople.com. They do not have any talent to act in a convincing manner.

They walk and walk and walk through the forest. There's more walking-around than in all three parts of "The Lord of the Rings" together. After the first hour, I began to read a Porsche brochure while watching "Trigger Man" along the way. Awful.

A total waste of time and money. I'd give that movie 0 stars out of 10, since this is not possible, I have to give 1 star.
