How It Ends (2018)
No seriously, where's the last ten minutes?
Starts interesting enough but soon devolves into a dull slog, a shoe horned in final act conflict and then the movie just ends halfway through a scene. Not in a way thats interesting mind you it literally just feels like they forgot to export the full movie.
anticlimactic is an understatement.
I thought that a close to two hour run time would have decent character development, unfortunately almost every character is so barely defined that by the end we pretty much know only what we knew going in about who these people we're supposed to care about are.
Really hate to say it, but this film is just weak.
The Signal (2014)
Feels like a short film dragged out to feature length.
This film has some good aspects such as the cinematography and a lot of the acting but it was really boring. The script thought it was smarter than it was so I just wanted it to hurry up and reveal the obvious twists.
I don't like watching films that are made simply to showcase the director's talent with special effects, sound and shot composition. All of which were very impressive but making us sit through 90 minutes of what is essentially a showreel is just wasting everyone's time.
Not smart, not interesting to watch. I think this Brenton Thwaites guy has got chops though and there is some undeniable talent behind the camera, i'd like to see what they can all do once Hollywood puts them on a real film.
