Metamorphosis

Yeah, me either. So as you can imagine not all that much happens. In fact, I can't really tell you what happened at all. And a lot of what DID happen was never explained or addressed... such as some foreboding neighbors and their motives, some mysterious nudes, some personal limb gnawing and well, a metamorphosis... to name a few.

Aesthetically the movie was beautiful. The quality of the picture was crisp and on point and the shots that were taken were gorgeous and atmospheric. Also the sound design added a lot to it as well and added to the desired atmosphere.

The acting was not phenomenal. It was primarily a two person cast and my main girl did a decent job. The guy on the other hand... he had the looks for sure, but that was about it. His performance was just odd and not in the I'm slowing slipping into insanity odd... but like unconvincing delivery with a stilted performance odd. The dialogue certainly did them no favors. It was... clunky, to say the least. Almost sounded like it was written by an AI trying to write a script for a soap.

As a lover of indi cinema, I hate to be that guy... but this felt like a bit of a waste of time. I think there was some light potential there but it was a very undeveloped idea. It would take some recasting, a major rework of the script and beefing up of the plot to get there. I'm giving this a 3 because a 2 feels harsh, but it was close. Would not recommend.

Top ten worst movies ever. I couldn't finish it in one sitting. I got bored every ten minutes as nothing happened. No character development, no plot development, essentially no movie. I forced myself to finish it because I rented it. But it was psychological torture to do so. So if the movie's intent was to psychologically torture people with boredom and completely nonsensical nothingness- Kudos great job.

I can't believe this movie got a rating of 8.5... horrible movie and boring.... i'm still baffled as to how people think it deserves an 8.5..... BULL...Ugh👎🏻

Despite the small budget, this movie had everything it needed to be a great indie horror movie but for some reason it failed. The actors were decent, it was set in a great location, and a man changing into a monster is always a good idea for a horror story. We just didn't go anywhere and it's not clear why we don't. The husband starts to change as the couple starts their "let's rekindle the love" vacation but the wife seems oblivious to these changes until it's too late. And by too late ... I mean the movie is almost over and we really have no idea how we got to the end. I really wanted to like this movie but walked away bored and kinda angry (I can't get the minutes I wasted hoping in vain that the movie would get better). If you finish a movie and the only thing anyone can say is, "That's it? Are you serious?" then you can safely say the director missed the mark.

I am not even remotely in the love category. I did not like either main character. Can't even imagine them getting together. He is working himself to death and she is a lousy "artist" who apparently has never work like normal people, which is strange since they met in college. I'm sure some people would consider what she does as "art". I felt sorry for him, something happens while he is posting a sign, that tells me he has some degenerative medical condition. Worse partner possible if that's the case. There are a couple of bad guys, I'm sure something will happen in the future, but boredom has hit me hard and there is no way I will make it to the good part assuming there is one.
