My Stepfather's Secret

Movie was impossible to watch due to the editor's total failure on sound. The background music, which was always playing, completely obliterated the dialogue, making it impossible to hear. The premise seemed good, but it was not possible to critique the movie due to the overwhelming music. Usually, loud background music is inserted for the following reasons, 1. Make up for bad acting.

2. Make up for bad dialog.

3. Make up for lack of money and creativity in the setting, scenery, location.

We will never know unless the movie is re-released with the music deleted or lowered.

I found the sour-faced daughter in this so obnoxious. Someone should have slapped her hard across the mouth for her disrespect towards her mother who just married her stepfather. I found her, if I were the parents to kick her out of the house or put her in a reform school. Poking her stuck up nose into everybody's business. The long straight hair down to her wazoo made her look even more droopy. And the over-the-hill make=up for a teeny bopper. Bad look, bad actress, so-so story line, has been done to death and better by other authors and directors and cast. Phew.

Yes folks, I really do have a pain in my brain for having sat through this. I also have cramp in my thumb from adjusting the remote for sound control.

So,, physically , this film has really had an effect on me, not I am sure ,what the producers had in mind!!!!. That awful teenager grated on my nerves, and just for sheer stupidity, the mother wore me out.

So all in all, I do realise that this is really not a proper review, but I really needed to get this off my chest ( which is feeling quite tight at the moment because of all this stress ) !!!!!!!!!

So now I think i will head off and get a full medical and hearing test.

This movie really should have a Government Health Warning !!!!!

I concur with the other two reviews, and also found this movie difficult to follow because of the (should be) background music. Plus the background noise in the public scenes was also too overwhelming. One would think, that there would be someone in place to watch all the movies before they are aired, to save our ears from this mess.

I read another review that talked about the loud music and I was so glad to hear it wasn't just me. I was cranking the sound to try and listen to the dialogue. I feel like I missed so much of the movie and I don't understand what is happening.
