Confession

If you like plays you will enjoy this. However for me I just found it really boring and I couldn't be bothered to work out the plot. I turned it off after 40 mins.

It's not a long film, but it seems in this day and age if there is: No Sex No Car chases Only violence is near the end people call it boring or not very good This "play" is just about Pure Acting, it's a clever story I did not have a clue what the twists were going to be Stephen Moyer (True Blood) and Colin Meaney (DS9) just act their socks off. It's a film which you have to sit and listen to every word. It's not a film, where u can have on in the background, you can't pop in and out of it.

You have to watch the whole 80mins and use your brain, not like with most films of this day and age....

I watched this because it starred Colm Meaney, but I was betrayed.

This dreary one hour and twenty minutes piece concerns a hoodlum, or is he an undercover cop, a cop or is she an undercover hoodlum, and a priest, or is he an undercover soldier.

There are no redeeming features, attractive personalities, in fact, no one to identify with at all.

Not even the father - son and father - daughter dynamic is explored beyond a bland statement.

There is tension in the "will the telephone work, and who will speak with whom when it does?" The conundrum of who holds the power is defeated by the equal possession of equal looking guns.

This is an arty stage play, filmed in a single location, with no expense spent on elevating a chess endgame to the screen. Was it worth it? I think not.

This is more of a theater play script than a movie, basically two people philosophizing for two thirds of it and telling us a story we have no reason to care about. Really uninteresting despite good acting and production, and nothing new or imaginative.

The film does start relatively quickly, but its still slow getting to the point of it. I did feel though that the three main leads were strong together and individually but if they had been put in a better setting it might have been more interesting. Overall the film was still ok and the plot was interesting but there just was not enough substance for how long the film was.
