Sometimes you just should take heed to the warnings from a very low rating of a movie here on IMDb or anywhere else for that matter. Despite the low rating that this 2016 "The Other Side of the Mirror" movie had managed to score, I still gave it a chance. Who knows, it might just be something that I liked even though many others didn't.
Turned out that I was wrong. I managed to get about 15 or 20 minutes into the movie, but I had to give up out of sheer and utter boredom. Nothing had happened for that entire time frame. And the movie was just cluttered with some very annoying piano music which was so overwhelming that it took precedence over the movie itself. It was so difficult to concentrate on the movie with that constant piano music blasting away at you.
As for the special effects in "The Other Side of the Mirror", well I can only guess, because I didn't see anything in what little I managed to watch of this movie.
The acting, well I assume that it as to be expected from a movie such as this. From what little I saw of the movie, before I threw the towel in the ring, was nothing impressive, much less anything noteworthy.
"The Other Side of the Mirror" is without a doubt not a movie that I will give a second chance. So I will never know the full contents of this movie, nor will I know how it ends. But bear in mind that sometimes you do yourself a favor and heed the low ratings of a movie, and save yourself the wasting of time, money and effort.
It is very rare that I actually give up on a movie, no matter how poor it is. But that was not the case with "The Other Side of the Mirror".
I guess the other side of the mirror would be preferable, especially if it tunes out the constant and annoying piano music.
