Traffik: Liberdade Roubada

When I left the theater I tried to think of something positive to say about "Traffik", a banal 'slasher' flick now in theaters. But I couldn't. The screenplay is hackneyed, the script is awful and the acting ranges from average (Omar Epps) to below (Paula Patton). "Traffik" just doesn't have much going for it, but I went to the first matinee which is low-priced where I go.

John and Brea are in love. He rents a mountain retreat hoping for a romantic getaway for the two, but, wouldn't you know it, a biker gang shows up to cause trouble (don't you hate it when that happens?). The story plods along without benefit of tension or suspense and the bikers are involved in an uninteresting sex trafficking ring - international, no less. But I had long since lost interest. If you go, see the early show - it's cheaper.
