Review of Rupture

Rupture (I) (2016)
1/10
Another ridiculous message movie
27 March 2023
Rupture is a tiresome message movie - - people are a virus that is killing the earth - - dressed up as a science fiction mystery. The two brief instances of special effects use 30-year-old morphing software to make faces. That's it.

The story is as tired as the message. Kidnap, escape, crawling around in the overhead air ducts, as ho-hum as it gets. Noomi Rapace is her usual brave self. Peter Stormare is his usual inane self with that weird accent garbling much of the dialog he tries to say.

People are tortured by exposing them to their worst fears. Snakes, drowning, falling and in Rapace's case spiders. In fact the movie opens with her seeing a spider and screaming. "1984" did it long ago and much better.

So if you want to waste your time being told how naughty you are, you evil human being, in a movie that is entirely predictable, go ahead. Oh, and as for the bad guys, there is no explanation of who they are or where they came from.
