TRUST NOBODY

But... in a through the guardrail, down the embankment, upside-down, and into weeds kind of way.

The only way this flick gets more than three stars is if you fall asleep after the first ten minutes and dream that you watched a better movie.

You don't have to go to film school to write a good story, nor do you need a degree to operate a camera. What you DO need is to know how to turn a story (if it's good) into a compelling script-which this is not. The writing is unimaginative, unnecessarily repetitive... it's boring.

Likewise, the "cinematography" is cringeworthy. Even for those with no understanding of framing will find many things decidedly unsettling about the operators inability to keep characters in shots, the less-than-cinematic shot choices, the search for focus... There's more, but these things alone are enough to make one stop watching.

Knowing how incredibly difficult a film is to make-from concept to completion-the best I can say is that the sound didn't totally suck. But, they put forth the effort and did get this movie "in the can," which is probably the best place for it.
