Collide

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.

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.

This takes place in and around an L. A. restaurant over one night. Various people are dealing with their own dire issues which culminates in a devastating incident.

Some stories are better than others. None of them are perfect. Jim Gaffigan's story is trying to be too secretive. It takes too long to reveal. The whole movie is like that, but his story is particularly frustrating. The drug story is probably the most compelling, but I'm not sure why they are hidden there. As for Ryan Phillippe and Kat Graham, I don't buy that story. He wouldn't buy it. That story makes this whole enterprise too contrived.

Who is giving this 10 out of 10 here's 1 out of 10 to counter. Bad film save yourself lost time don't bother. Dreadful film simply appalling. Anyone rating this 10 out 10 need to rounded up and sent round to master ass clown the legend manipulation creature allcock n bull.

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.
