Review of Tape

Tape (2001)
Boring
14 September 2004
I can understand why some people may like this film, but personally I didn't. To me it just seemed like the same conversation 100 times over. You raped her. No I didn't. Yes you did. No I didn't etc for an hour and a half. It's not helped by the fact that I don't like Ethan Hawke, who plays a most unlikeable character. While the premise is interesting, it really doesn't go anywhere for large periods of time, to the point where I have to wonder why one of the characters just doesn't walk out of the room and leave (and when they finally do, of course they come back moments later to start all over again). The performances are good, but the storyline really lacks that extra something that's needed to take it from boring to interesting.
