Like others who registered simply to leave a review I too did the same.

I just sat there incredulous that it was possible to raise the money to make this abomination. I do not know where or how to berate this movie so lets start with some technical aspects.

I see that they used film but the incompetence of the grading, developing, colourisation needs to be seen to be believed. It looked like they used digital cameras and then a really cheap grading system to add grain. Sound was appallingly mixed, badly balanced and careless. It seems they had no access to ADR facilities or the main actors refused to be involved. Editing was sloppy and needs serious tightening up.

Direction was lacking in every way, it seems there was a shooting ratio of 1:1 so you got stuck with whatever you ended up on the first take. The characters were so badly portrayed I had no empathy or interest whatsoever for them and the consequences of their actions. Talk about wooden I began to poke my screen. I am sure the actors do not talk about this movie when people ask them what they have done

What the hell was going on with that on the side 'love interest? Where did that lead to ,why? Pointless. Who cares?

The script and plot were laughable and incoherent leaving you with nothing. I am losing the will to live just thinking about the trite, inconsequential, schoolboy, badly thought out, improbable nature of what I saw. As for the last scene my jaw hit the ground as I realised, yes they could reach depths that would top the previous drivel.

Anyhow I have wasted enough time .

I am rarely driven to write something like this so I guess that is some measure of success but I am furious to have wasted my precious time watching this garbage. I am furious that this proves without a doubt raising money to make a film is nothing to do with the film and I am furious that there must be so many other so much more worthwhile things that are not being made.

Are the people who put this together professionals? Have they made films before? Is this a rich kid trying something out?

Anyhow the long and the short if it is watch paint dry instead, do not waste your time with this film. Do not support this level of incompetence in case they go on to make more.

I am astounded that there are reviews that rate this movie highly, maybe there are two movies with the same name. I wish I could vote 0 out of 10.
