Creature (1998)
2/10
Why so long and tedious?
11 January 2019
Action scenes are poorly directed, confusing, and outright boring. They even turn to comedy at times. And all the endless filler is just pointless drivel, with boring characters, zero plot, and sometimes laughable repetition of cliches. The monster itself is ridiculous, but at least Stan Winston did a good job with making something so ridiculous look at least respectable. But still, whenever it's on screen, it looks like some joke that escaped from an Asylum production. Why on earth did a plotless film that struggles with action scenes insist on 'developing' the non-existing plot and inserting all these awkward action scenes? Were they trying to get the audience to go to sleep? All in all, it' one of those TV movies you might endure if you have nothing better to do very late in the evening, and you literally need something to keep you mildly entertained, and nothing in terms of good filmmaking. I would have given this one star, but Winston's effort is worth at least another star.
