The Student

You know how it is, you have a streaming cold and all you can do is rest, gurgle away and watch endless nonsense on the television. This is where I find myself today, plonked in front of the idiot box. I tried searching for this film under the title "Tormenting Abigail" which is the name that it appeared under, on UK television. The only non gurgling activity that I have managed today, is adding this fact under the trivia section!

Another "Trinket" From Netflix that even though it was low budget, I kept with it to the end. No Stars in this one, although they were competent actors and actresses. The plot was thinner than weak tea, but it still kept me occupied for the full 90 minutes of the movie! Not the worst film that I have seen on Netflix this month, but not particularly memorable. I did enjoy it though, so in the final analysis I guess I found it to be a good movie and worth the watch.

There's really very little to say about such a terrible movie. I don't know what possessed me to invest any time in this other than it served as a background distraction for getting ready in the morning. The acting is absolutely terrible. The "plot" is ludicrous. I can sum it up by saying there were only 15 minutes left to watch the conclusion - and I turned it off.

THE STUDENT is poorly written, poorly acted, poorly shot, and just plain boring. Never, even once, is any performance in this movie ever truly felt, so I didn't feel it either. The law students depicted are perhaps the worst, most inept potential attorneys ever, and legal principles are grossly misrepresented and/or misunderstood. God save us from the products of this law school.

This is a crappy, annoying movie with unlikable, unbelievable characters you won't care about. Spare yourself.

Acting,story,directing are all atrocious. Very unconvincing and poorly directed.
