Why am I even here expressing my opinion on this movie as it is as pointless as watching this movie? The movie left a blank trail in my mind, absolutely not moved with me at all. That particular feeling about the overall atmosphere of the movie reflects my score not the fact whether I liked the movie or not. I liked certain aspects of the movie (the psychological aspect) while simultaneously hating the other (the premise which was plain simple dull). It's just the amount of things from the latter category was *slightly* higher.
I tried not to take the movie seriously, just switch off my brains and let it take me to an eighty minutes journey but instead it just took me to the woods and that's pretty much it. I hate the woods. It's like if the producers intended this movie to be an anti-organic food propaganda that will make you hate anything organic because the movie probably makes you associate it with an arrogant psychopath with unresolved issues from childhood, or that's what they believe. The cook wasn't one, you know, but the storyline pretty much turned him into one. I guess the director didn't really have a clue how to conclude the movie leaving you (and the director) pretty much confused. But what did I expect, Hollywood blockbuster type of three dimensional story? Michael Bay? The movie promised a bitter feast and I (expletive) got my bitter cold feast so maybe I should give it ten stars instead. As you see ratings are very arbitrary and relative.
I would go even further to expand on the variety of topic this movie points at, like all media-approved and supported society faults, consumerism and all the like blah blah, all of it to justify "snap outs" but all aforementioned examples were presented in a very shallow manner and don't mean a thing.
(SPOILER) WHY even make JT Franks' wife a victim when she had nothing to do with that? Why that scene with her taking a bath trying to make a suspension out of nothing make it look like some kind of horror when the scene did not fit the movie's pace at all? Completely pointless scenes just for the sake of the genre only. That's not how I like my movies. (/SPOILER)
The power of internet 2.0 is way too strong to be extinguished which would reflect the humorous side of the movie basically telling that everyone is and can be JT Franks when they write a displeasing comment and some people 1,000 miles away get upset to the point of desiring to murder you. Is that the green light for you to make a movie? A short story on paper yes, movie? Don't do that.
I am amused at the glimpse of thought of producers of this movie going on a killing spree targeting everyone on the internet who gave this movie a bad review (Daniel Rodrigues, Paul Andrews, Boptrax, TrukDrivr, slatromhsiloof I'm looking your way). Now THAT should be the sequel about.
