Review of Dead Kids

Dead Kids (2019)
3/10
The trailer was the best part for the film
25 January 2020
Felt catfished by the trailer that promised an edgy, dark comedy and exciting heist movie with social commentary. The editing was fast paced and dialogue chosen was controversial.

The film had barely any of that. It fell flat and became this cliche melodramatic sob fest. You cannot feel sympathy for any of the characters because their choices are so illogical and just dumb. The characters are flat and stereotypes that aren't even comedic, it's just annoying. The underdog characters have no charm either.

The direction was bland. A lot of people sitting down and talking scenes for a supposedly exciting heist film. The color grading was interesting at least. It's basically a pretty and drawn out episode of MMK. This movie was a disappointment, especially with the screenplay and it's frustrating because the trailer showed what it could have been if it lived up to it's potential.
