The Strings

Where to begin? The songs belong at a bad teenage poetry open mic, the characters have no motivation, there's enough plot for about a five-minute short, the acting is amateurish, and the soundtrack intrudes like a dump truck. Sure, there are some nice shots of landscapes and houses, but whatever passes for a story here is so thin that you won't care. Add in the barest whisper of pretentious New Age "guantum curtain" or whatever, and you've got this movie. I watched it on Shudder and it made me want to cancel.

Despite some gorgeous cinematography, this film fails to deliver anything worthwhile. Unconvincing performances, lackluster character building and a story that fails to do much of anything combine to deliver a truly awful film. Don't waste your time.

No idea who thought having a musician deal with their creative process in an isolated cabin would be a good scenario for a horror film (and perhaps it could've been), but here it's an exercise in patience as NOTHING happens for 99% of the running time.

Non-existent plot, nothing even slightly scary, THE STRINGS is an epic waste of time. Just ... wow.

Even with that, that is still giving this steaming pile of poo emoji entirely too much credit. The lead is not easy on the eyes, overweight and unattractive as others have already said, they weren't stretching the truth, talentless hack should be added to the list. Whatever this nonsense is she calls "music" is well not any good. What's even a little funny but really just sad is the movie tries to play off like she's some established musician which just makes it all that much worse. Everything in this movie is fake and bad, her fake and bad acting, her fake and bad smoking, her fake and bad drinking, her really fake and bad "music"

I hesitate to call this a slow burn, cause it never even catches a spark to start to slow burn. Anywho read the other reviews, others have made comical points about the movie that are true and made me laugh a little.

In fact, I'd almost say the reviews are more entertaining than the movie. Skip this if you value your time at all.

I've seen garbage movies and I dare say I recognise one when I see one and guess what... This is one of em. I'm not gonna fat shame the lead, like other reviewers have... pointless, what I will do is say is from the lead the the support cast the acting its just poor the "story" is weak. We don't get any reason or rhyme as to why the spooks there not always needed I know, but, when the script and film in general is this bad some explaining is needed . The only good thing about this movie is that it ends.
