Review of Wired Shut

Wired Shut (2021)
2/10
Predictable and shallow
31 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Well shot, that's about it. Apart from the dark scenes and the whispering.

I knew from the very start what would happen, it's set up for idiots.

Then it happened, then there was a fight and then everything was fine.

All characters were unlikable. Oh, apart from the little spider. It was adorable.

Why should I care for a womanising wife beater or a daughter that robs her own dad? It was also instantly predictable, just from the pictures of her mobile, that the boyfriend was a headcase, so no surprises there either. I told myself the whole plot from the moment she smiled at her phone, before even showing him! That's how predictable it is.

That's it. No twists, no turns, no depth, no dialogue, no surprises. Just a linear film that had nothing valuable in store apart from maybe teaching you that a bad husband and father can have a change of heart if confronted by a mad murderer. You shouldn't have to watch this film to know this though.
