Collide

All the actors were game. Even Drea De Matteo who got NOTHING to do. The tones of the three stories didn't mesh well. Kat Graham's tragedy porn storyline with Ryan Phillipe went SO hard that it veered into camp. Or maybe it started off campy - hard to say. Cackled several times at parts that were not meant to be funny. Not bad for a Five Dollar Tuesday experience in a half full theater. I appreciate the IDEA of Kat Graham continuing to get acting roles even though the outcome is always dicey. I miss her aspiring pop music era.

I tried to finish this but I really don't want to waste the next 17 mins it would take to get to the end. To be honest I just don't care about any of the story lines or people. I like the actors but feel like I'm watching community theater with a hand held camera. Just bad writing I think is the problem? I've seen stories of affairs, oppression, and drug heists and this feels like maybe the film club at high school got the chance to write a script and someone filmed it. Not sure why Gaffegan or Phillipe took on these roles. The gal who plays Tamira is hard to watch. Back to Hulu search on a Friday night.

I've been searching for something to watch that Wilson Bethel has done but, as much as I love him, this is a mess!! Bad camera work. Bad writing. Bad casting. This is just plain bad. Bad. Bad. Bad.

I'm honestly trying to find anything redeeming. I can't. The casting is so bad that the actors had no chance to rise above! The writing is so bad that the actors had no chance to "make it there own". The cinematography is so bad that these beautiful people have no opportunity to look great.

I'm trying some good wine, hoping that will make the movie more palatable but, nope! Mere $100 wine cannot perform that miracle.

Wife and I were convinced to watch it when it had an 8.2 rating on IMDB, and the plot sounded a decent. We could not make it more than 20 minutes through it. The characters, acting, pacing and bizarre use of a shakey cam all contributed to our confusion. It felt like a first draft that was accidentally released.

Remember that great movie Crash with the 3 separate stories that intersect at the end? Well this movie is like that, except without the great script and the great pacing and the great ending.... wow, these are good actors too. They must be desperate for work in Hollywood or something. What a dud of a movie. Avoid this dumpster fire or you'll feel cheated out of 90 minutes of your life.
