Collision (2013)
3/10
Collision (Intersections) High Rolling Low Lifers Make For Unrelenting Desert Nastieness
22 November 2016
If you happen to be one of those viewers who can like a movie that's overflowing with despicable people, doing despicable things - with a script that's so convoluted it keeps falling over its own threads - then you might just see what a handful of viewers have jumped up and down about. Writer/director David Marconi seems to have left it 20 years too late to try a comeback. His grotty script makes for an over-burdened grueling 'entertainment' experience.

After an impressive opening in the Moroccan desert the only things that keep this alive are: impressive Cinematography by Zuric born Thomas Hardmeier - a music score by Robert Horowitz, that deserves to grace a far better movie. Some performances are OK but with characters so unrelentingly nasty it's difficult to muster the effort needed in your brain to go the distance - brief overview: she's setting him up for murder on their honeymoon (?) but wait, seems he's also setting her up...hang on...their'e all setting each other up in revenge for the death of whats-is name, while whosie-majig is, is...who isn't doing what to who!. While with more restraint it might have been so much better - only those who enjoy Tarantino type empty, SUPER ugly characters could be fooled into thinking this worth staying with.
