Gatecrash

Let me point at the outset that the description of this movie is quite inaccurate. It says, "A dark psychological thriller which follows a couple who find themselves in a hit and run situation, with the evidence suggesting there was no accident." Well, the first part about the accident is quite true, but the second part - that there was no evidence to suggest there had been an accident - is completely false. In fact, it's no spoiler because, in the very beginning, they show the glasses with strands of hair clearly indicating someone had been hit. But maybe the writer is too focused on the car which indeed shows no signs of having hit anybody or even anything. But that's no doubt just poor direction, because the couple itself has no doubt that they had hit someone. Long story short, this is an *extremely* boring movie, with practically no sensible point to it.

A silly, pretentious theatrical play that has been made into a silly, pretentious movie. I guarantee that you will be bored senseless within the first 15 minutes. When some actual action finally occurs, your boredom won't be alleviated.

In addition, there are many inexplicable aspects to the story that are never explained. I suppose the writer thought he or she was being "artistic." Well, here, "artistic" means banal and uninteresting.

This is one of those films that will never make it into theaters, and I doubt if it even got much coverage on the festival circuit.

Do yourself a favor and pass this one up.

No, it's not, so it doesn't get a pass. All the usual hackneyed, cliches associated with this plot... yes, we've seen it before, done a lot better ('The Forgiven', for a start, and the scene from Michael Clayton too, off the top of my head) - A couple coming home at night commit a hit and run, then argue about it, the man is clearly abusive and a bit drunk; visited by the local cop who is not what he seems blah blah. The stars I've given go to Olivia Bonamy, whose performance is the only redeeming feature here. When I watched the opening act of this travesty, I saw all of the traits I dislike in student films - bad acting, heavy handed direction - Avoid.

This movie is so boring, I had to try really hard making it past the first 10 minutes, even more past the second 10 minutes and didnt make it past the 30 minute mark. Only hipsters can rate this above 1 star, its a wast of time and utter bad

All too often we see new indie films come out with glowing reviews that go straight into what a great job the director did and with a small budget. These reviews more often than not, come from the directors themselves or someone close to them.
