Review of Shithouse

Shithouse (2020)
6/10
Well made movie, but accuracy is often tedious
16 December 2020
As a college student, I can attest to the tonal and plot accuracy this movie achieves. It does that really well, but is the average day to day life of a college student trying to adjust to being away from home, while constantly shooting himself in the foot make for an entertaining movie? No. Is it worth a full length film? Also, no. This would have been a great 45 minute short. But the tedious and awkward, albeit accurate and realistic, dialogue which takes up the vast majority of this movie, runs dry far before the movie ends. I'm sure some people can relate to the movie enough to find this quite enjoyable, but I'm not one of them. Regardless, I think the is a successful debut for Raiff, as far as debuts go.
