Reality Check (2002)
3/10
Hysterical and Illogical Festival of Clichés
22 May 2005
Four young women – Serendipity, Mei-Ling, Charlolette and Isabel, and three young men – Gar, Swope and Crash, totally strangers to each other, are sent to an isolated house with the crew members of a reality show leaded by the Afro-American Brock to stay living together for three months without any means of communication with the exterior, and in the end, the winner will get a prize of US$ 100,000.00. When the SM cameraman Eugene is found dead in a barn, the group becomes hysterical, since nobody knows who is trustful. "Reality Check" is a bad movie in all aspects. The characters are not well developed and their behaviors are completely illogical. When the serial killer is disclosed, there is no explanation of the motives for such behavior other than being a deranged person. The performances are hysterical and boring. The edition is horrible and the image is too much dark, needing the change of the bright of the TV. The story has no originality, and it is another one about a sort of "Big Brother" show. Watching this movie is indeed a pure waste of time. My vote is three.

Title (Brazil): "O Jogo das Sete Mortes" ("The Game of the Seven Deaths")
