First, it's a rather long movie for the substance. They really go to lengths to draw things out unnecessarily. The script is painful to listen to. It's very sophomoric, and the over-baked archetypes make the acting pretty cringe. I actually really like. John Rhys-Davies from other movies. Elena Deliia also does a good job with a poor script. However, Michael Yare should seek employment as something other than an actor. It's like watching a junior-high school student attempt acting for the first time. What makes it all worse is, even though there are a few good actors, there is absolutely zero synchronicity between the cast. None of them mesh well together, so it makes it really difficult to try to enjoy what little gems there are to this story. This could have been done a million times better, and they obviously had the budget for it.
The trailer made the movie look interesting. The perspective on the paranormal film seemed different, so I wanted to give it a chance.
The pros:
Decent production quality (aside from the sound levels that would drop every 10 minutes or so and some odd camerawork). That's probably as far as the pros go.
The cons:
Laughable script. It's like a 15 year old stoner wrote the lines for the movie, and that's not an exaggeration. The character reactions to different situations are nowhere near being organic. They're just forced idealized and cliched copies of a plethora of other films.
The actors were terrible. I would say, one would expect this kind of acting in a B-flick, but even that kind of movie has better acting than this movie did. This is more in line with something a college student would make, meaning they just used the people around to be in their project, like close friends and family = people who have no acting ability.
There is no real flow to the movie. It randomly jumps from scenario to scenario with no real continuity. They ignore the main theme (not giving spoilers) and how it connects to the characters.
I get Tom DeLonge is interested in the paranormal, and this was a project for him to play with that, but he should stick to music.
