Review of Fatal

Fatal (2010)
7/10
Two movies in one, first one is funny, second is not
4 September 2014
Warning: Spoilers
The movie can really be split in two parts.

The first one is fast-paced, full of Youn-ish humor that mixes rap clips, exaggerating slang/ghetto talks, childish humor, parody of classic comedy moments and finally some genuine characters he has the secret to create. This part should have been the complete movie by extending the 45min into full length, and I would have given 10 stars, honestly. And this could have been made possible only by adding more music clips parodies and slowing down the pace sometimes.

But for some reason Youn wanted to shoot himself in the foot.

The second part is terrible to watch. The plot twist comes out of nowhere, vaguely related to one of Youn/Fatal song. Its slow pace, Swiss context (which is not Savoie, btw) does not match at all with the characters, even thought this was on purpose, are disappointing in so many ways I am not even describe to not re-think too much about it.

One advice: stick to the first part.
