Review of Cupid

Cupid (2020)
1/10
Couldn't make it past the 5 minute mark

Warning: Spoilers
Although this sounds like a great premise, the execution of the first five minutes of the movie made me want to shut it off.

The sound editing was not mixed properly so the restaurants music was too loud for the dialogue. The father character was poorly acted to the point I could not tell if he had an accent, a speech impediment, or just a lazy talker. As the blind date the father was on tried sneaking out the back, she talks first while seeing the father and his daughter out front of the restaurant. Why not try just sneaking by? As the father and daughter are running from Cupid, they refuse to take any sort of car which would protect them from any high flying demon shooting arrows and proceed to run through a field out in the open? There's even a point in the editing where they repeat dialogue because they didn't edit properly. Then there's a long slow build up of the daughter having her head forcibly impaled on another end of an arrow without dad, which has the arrow in his leg refuses to move (he also screams "my daughter!" And not his daughters name like a human being would). The only redeeming quality was the Cupid's demon make up. Whoever the makeup artist on this was, please go work with more professional people. Don't get sucked down into the mire. Dont waste you're time watching this. You should have more dignity than that.
