Review of The Oath

The Oath (2018–2019)
7/10
let down by VERY SHAKY camera
16 March 2018
I watched this because it has a few actors that are on my watch list, but I found myself looking away. When will companies realise that the "reality" shaky camera work just doesn't add anything, and, actually detracts from an audience viewing and taking in what's happening. It actually looks as though the camera operator is deliberately shaking it. The editing also consists single shots of the camera panning up and down individuals, at various points, along with extreme close-ups. Honestly if this had good editing/camerawork it would get me hooked. Now it's just like watching an extremely bad found footage series albeit with good actors.
