Ripper Untold

I honestly can't believe why this film was made and can't believe I paid to watch it. A handful of actors, actresses and sets. Everything about it is poor.

Unless there's some relevance hidden in extended and tedious opening titles, those same titles tend to give away what's to come.... This is a rather awkward, slow and decidedly predictable film, which seems to be a vanity project, and not much else.

The actors are almost as uncomfortable as the sets, which is probably what I spent most of my viewing-time being distracted by.

As for plot; the ending was telegraphed from the beginning, which could have been cleverly handled, but wasn't.

The music was devoid of atmosphere and felt like random, royalty-free downloads saved just before Limewire faded into obscurity.

The democratisation of filmmaking has simply produced more Ed Woods, and that's being generous.

Script isn't great. Acting is passable. Sets are minimalistic. Predictable. Nothing spectacular but looked as there was some heart put into the project.

It's very predictable with a little gore but not much suspense. Definitely not a horror, the film is more a drama / thriller genre. The actors are quite good and interesting and it's well made. The movie lacks action and the editing can be confusing. Not bad not great.

This movie reminded me of reused cutscenes from some old FMV detective video game edited together and played at half the normal speed.

The acting is on the level of an Amateur Dramatics production of Ripper Street. So all in all I wish they left this story untold.
