Review of The Bone Garden

I don't know where to begin. This was awful in every way. Unimaginably awful. I mean, the DP and sound guy knew their basic jobs, and they did a basic job. This wasn't even intentially bad, it was just plain inept on every level. The "twist" wasn't even uninspired, it was plain irrationally stupid. Stupid is the word, you see, because this movie doesn't deserve a more evocative adjective. I find it absolutely hilarious this guy made a movie recently which he subtitled "An Arthouse Film" because this movie was as far from creative, skillful, or artistic as you can possibly get. Everything about it was utterly basic-- as an example, the editing cut together conversations so that every time a person spoke, the camera showed them, except for a few token moments when the editor remembered you don't have to do that. Picture to yourself if the director and actors of the most inane Disney channel tween sitcom made a "thriller" with middle aged actors-- that's getting close to the joke this was.
