Review of Rellik

Rellik (2017)
6/10
Obvious who the killer is from the beginning
4 November 2017
Warning: Spoilers
I had a very strong impression who the killer was in the very first scene was see them in. Then, in episode 2, I had worked out everything pretty much. I don't think I've ever seen a movie or TV show where it was so painfully obvious from the start who the killer was than Rellik. It was so frustrating having to then sit through 4+ more hours of obvious red herrings when I was certain who the killer was. Even the more vague stuff like the footage on the laptop, I knew exactly who that was as soon as Christine mentioned it, Ellaine's roommate, I knew exactly who/what that was several episodes prior to the reveal, its just all too obvious too soon.

Also, it does feel like a rough first draft of a script. It feels very amateurish in that respect, but then in other areas it's great. It's shot really well, the acting is good, music is great. I feel as if this could be edited down into a movie and you'd have a much better product at the end of it.
