Review of Alive

Alive (2002)
Gave me a headache
6 December 2004
Despite the fact that I waited until the ending credits for something to happen, I ended up leaving the room a few minutes before they started to role.

Why? Because of the horrible, throbbing headache that this movie induced in me. This happens to me from time to time when I'm bored to the brink of tears.

There really is NOTHING to this movie. The unpredictable bits are all Deus Ex Machina... and thusly dull, forced and contrived.

Not only did I not care about the lead character, I forgot he was in it for half the movie. The set, seemed to take center stage, and all that was left was a long, LOOOOOONNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG, drawn-out story of... you know... I'm not even sure what it was about.

I can't imagine that it matters.

I love bad movies. A lot. But this one was just not worth it.

Miss It.
