Allegoria

Haven't seen it, but the makers need to be applauded for one thing - there is no flood of 10/10 spam shill comments from cast and crew members. Thus they show a level of dignity and integrity completely absent in most of their peers. Thankyou.

I was watching the movie and about a third of the way through I wondered why I was watching an anthology movie like VHS. A bunch of seemingly random stories connected by a single thread.

It's not a cohesive film from start to finish. Which is a shame because the actors were all really quite good. Sadly it's a lot of monologuing back and forth.

Remember in Black Mass when one person would litteraly speak for five miny without anyone else talking even though it was supposed to be a conversation. It's like that but not quite so bad.

Hope they do better in the future. Tons of potential here.

This is supposed to be (I think) about a bunch of pretentious artists. But what they are saying about art is at the level of what a high school student might tell you. So they are obnoxious and annoying rather than pretentious. I was just happy to see each and every person in this movie die.

Also I agree with the reviewer speaking about the sound quality. Had to turn the volume up almost as loud as my system would go to hear any of the whisper quiet dialogue and then turn it almost all the way down again at ANY sound effect (yes, that includes simple things like closing a door).

Some decent effects in a movie thats both boring and badly made. The stories "twists" rarely makes sense. And it has this artsy fartsy feel, like the filmmaker thought he was contributing to high art. Plus the sound is very uneven, sometimes you cant hear anything only for the volume to suddenly go bursting high.

Again a quote like "Just because you can make a movie doesnt mean you should" makes sense.

Dissapointing.

Had to turn on subtitles.. the talking was whisper quiet compared to the blaring, speaker destroying soundtrack.

Some of the stories worked well... others were a bit long winded with no real payoff, nicely linked through out though.

Kinda spooky, mostly boring.
