Goes by the name: it's All balls
1 June 2011
Warning: Spoilers
I don't think I need to go through the characters individually, you must have read it by now in the other reviews. The only reason I am writing this review is because no movie has ever disappointed me so much and that's why I can never forget this one. The trailer is mysterious and quite mystifying. Initially it comes on as some dark story with twists and secrets all throughout, but the expectation is soon kicked aside by a plot set up by an old witch who is trying tricks for her daughter to get pregnant with a boy, but chooses to practice voodoo on her new neighbor to get her pregnant instead so that in time she can steal the baby boy. But then, the neighbor miscarries but apparently doesn't after which she falls victim to another voodoo trick and ends up sleeping with the old witch's son in law, she gets pregnant again but the baby is not a result of the voodoo trick, instead the leftover of her first pregnancy. One fine day, the witch dies unable to yield a grandson. Following which enters an old man supplying silence and absurdity to the script and does little to excite the viewers. Then the neighbors have a spat when invited to a gala lunch, after which blood runs on the pregnant mama's legs followed by the birth of a child...story ends with the proud parents leaving with the baby. That was the story, isn't? I know that's a difficult question and it is easy to lose your way in the wilderness created by the entire crew of the film. However, the dark tones and the artistic background are quite impressive, moreover it suits the vagueness this movie intents to imply. There are too many useless scenes in the movie starting from: used condom handling, mushrooms everywhere and the occasional triple "ekx".

You may like it if walking into the wilderness towards nothing is your type of movie, although escorted by dark tones and earthy feels.
