Division 19

IMDB isn't the only site plagued by fake reviews, but they need to get a handle on them.

If I spend $30 for a sub-par phone charger then I get my phone charged intermittently, and maybe I return it.

If I invest 2 hours in a movie that is incoherent, repetitive, and pointless, I just wasted 2 hours. No value whatsoever and I can't get my time back.

This movie is horrible. 7.7 reviews when I queued to watch and now under 4. It deserves a 1-2 rating. This movie is the cinematic equivalent of melatonin.

After reading some of the reviews here, I thought I was in for a treat. This turned out to be a huge disappointment, not even sure what the point of this movie was. By the end of it, I had no idea what the hell i was watching anymore. Total waste of 90min.

The concept of the movie was very interesting. Prisoners are filmed, and subscribers see live interactions between felons. You can buy a subscription to an individual felon. Sadly, the directing and screenplay did not live up to my very low expectations (due to Redbox reviews). Scenes didn't make sense. The lead actor maybe had a dozen lines. From scene to scene the story and shots were disjointed.

I only recommend watching this movie as a drinking game. Drink whenever a scene makes no sense. Drink when the Hardin says a word. Drink when they camera shifts points of view for no reason.

So awful. Worst movie I've seen in 20 years.

The poster and description of this movie caused me to think I was going to see something exciting. Nothing could be further from the truth. The description of the movie being about citizens watching inmates on TV is accurate it's also really boring. The whole movie is boring, It's like they all took acting lessons from William Shatner, say 1 word, pause for 3 seconds say another word, pause for 5 seconds say a word, stop talking for 5 minutes and look like you're thinking about what to say next then walk away.

They had a good story, actually they had a couple of good stories in this show but they chose not to go with them. I had the impression the writers were sitting in a circle in Forman's smoke filled basement coming up with all these great ideas which they forgot about when they came to their senses and they went with something really mundane instead.

Science Fiction? I would not call this science fiction it's bare more advanced that what we have today, in fact I think all the technology in the movie is available today it just isn't being used yet, or is it?

I liked all the actors, but it was confusing I didn't recognize any of the names but the faces looked familiar. I thought Nash was Ryan Gosling, he looked and sounded just like Ryan. I watched it all the way through hoping for something relevant to happen, TBH I was playing a game on my kindle for most of the movie and just listened to it because it moved so slowly.

It looks like a big budget movie but the story wasn't there. The dialogue what there was of it was good there just wasn't enough. Remember when writers used to be able to fill time with dialogue to keep you entertained and intrigued? Today's writers are lazy and just aren't producing enough words and the actors stand around looking brain dead.

I can't recommend this movie unless if you're looking for something to play in the background while you sleep, then it's perfect.

I had a really hard time staying awake for this mess of a film.

The first 1/4 of the film was decent enough to suck you in, but then it was just random dumb camera shots (literally, 5 second scenes jumping all over the place - to no where) and some decent (but useless) Parkour acrobatics.

Clearly the concept was taken from many other films, but I didn't care about that. What bothered me was writer/director/producer Suzie Halewood's poor attempt to create a decent story/screenplay. It almost seems like of the 5 hours total of decent filming, it was edited down to random 5-10 second scenes that were repetitive and ended up no where. Major plot issues with lack of any real story, and even worse dialogue. How do two brothers meet again after 10 years, have a one-sided 5 second conversation about nothing, then onto the next scene? Jamie Draven as Harden needed much more dialogue, instead of all these irrelevant scenes on buildings.

I get this was a low budget film, and I really enjoyed the low budget effects, but the problem here is the very amateurish writing and terrible screenplay with useless scenes, jumping in and out of nowhere. Halewood's directing behind the camera was not bad, but her editing the film to its final cut was atrocious. A 5th grader could've written a more solid story.

Nevertheless, ignore the clearly fake 8-10/10 reviews. This film had a great opportunity that Halewood blew trying to wear all these hats. It's a 4/10 from me, strictly for the decent low budget effects and the acting.
