Adonis Complex

I seldom write a BAD review, I am open minded to artistic license and the attempt to write a decent screen play. But I will say to all those "under 18's" who gave it a 10 star you have never seen a Good movie in your life. If anyone rated this above a 1-2 star I wonder what films you have seen to compere it to.. it deserves not even a HALF star out of 10 just for the waste of money and time it took to of produced it. The plot was minimalist, the concept intent was good but missed the mark in dialog , blocking, Camera angle direction, ,etc etc... Even having to have the Director and screen writer try to star in it show just how low budget and lacking it was of merits. None of the one dimensional Characters (except the final plot twist in the end) were even believable and the on screen acting showed just how bad it is as a piece of "art" . There lack and inevitability that anyone would not be aware of their surroundings is more than suspension of disbelief. There are School and art house and lower budget films out there who merit more than this waste of time. It is abysmal at least and I kept looking at how much longer of the 1:13 min it was until it was over. I would Highly suggest watching it if you enjoy bad quality cinema. And it does not even enter in the category of a cult bad film, just simply a time waster.

All this talk about the ratings people give... Admittedly, giving this film a 10 is quite far-fetched. And checking out the profiles of those who do, you will most likely find their account was created recently and this is the only film they have reviewed.

Could be, could be. After all, we all started at some point and maybe this is a gem that got people off their sofa and onto IMDB.

And then there are those that purposefully rate it a 1, "to counter the ridiculous 10 ratings", which basically is doing just the same thing, but in the opposite direction. Funny.

Anyway, I expected nothing, but this movie is really not that bad. The storyline, the acting, soundtrack and the pace all felt right to me. Loved the little twists too. Also, keeping it brief at 1 hour and 13 minutes. Which I respect.

I never read reviews or watch trailers before I watch a movie. Because I want to go in "blind". And this one pretty much did well for me. Minimalistic and low budget yes, but well staged. Not a flick that I would wildly recommend to friends, but not something I would advise against either.

Tastes and preferences differ, and as always that is a good and perfectly natural thing.

It had a 5.7 IMDb review so I gave it a try. DON'T MAKE MY MISTAKE !Terrible movie. 0/10 !

Mind you, this is not a great movie nor is it anything we haven't seen before but they sure did a good job at keeping it interesting. Even dough the movie does not advertise itself as a horror comedy, it boasts a great deal of dark humor but never at the expense of the unsettling dynamic and atmosphere. The acting is not award winning level but fair. The movie score is effective. Overall, there is no boredom here and the film does not suffer from its obvious low budget. Its a good little movie to watch when you're in the mood for something dark and you just don't know what to put on.

Apparently the people that gave high ratings are related to the remedial writers & movie crew! Very poor acting with a senseless storyline!
