  • Implausible plot, implausible dialog, implausible everything

    Review contains non-specific plot details - but no obvious spoilers.

    Implausible, yet predicatable storyline.

    Much of the plot is very implausible and unbelievable.

    For example: Police providing a relative of a murder victim with belongings of the deceased that were in posession of the deceased at the time they went missing. Really? You don't think that would be evidence? Especially the victim's phone?

    Another example: The murder investigation is handled by a regular uniformed traffic patrol officer, not a detective. Nobody ever visits a police station - they just pull up in their car next to where this police officer is regularly parked.

    Another example: Everyone's home looks to be a newly finished 5 star residence - regardless of whether the character occupying the residence is reputed to be trailer trash, an unemployed aspiring surfer or a high school student living away from their parents. One scene contains a very obviously fake television. Nobody in this movie lives in a plausible residence. Even the residence of the main character is implausible considering their occupation.

    There are many more implausible things about this movie but to go into detail on them would give away spoilers.

    Amateur directing, acting and dialog. Although in the actors defence - in some scenes they're forced to make the best of a bad situation.

    For example: A character opens a glass door and then looks surprised to see what's on the other side after opening it... Really?

    I get the dramatic effect the director was going for but in the end a good scene should be plausible with the actors acting logically.

    I would not watch this movie again or recommend it to anyone I like.
