Remote Viewing

Story Story Story. Imagination, Comradery, Trust, Honor & Consideration are among founding principles to the story. A journey of overcoming doubt and its reward. Interesting plays with words and camera work. Angles, sweeps, motions all seemingly hand held as if the movie is really being shot with 2 small hand held cameras. No matter how small a budget this movie must have had, when there is a good story and sincere actors, magic happens. Great chemistry between actors. And some really STRANGE characters along the way. Had me laugh out loud several times. Had me curious to see through to end. Music! Maybe that's where all the money went... the scoring is elegant, haunting and mesmerizing when we need be mesmerized. ;) It's all about Perspective. When put in proper perspective, this is a solid flick. Remote Viewing (the actual clairvoyant act of seeing the future) seems much about putting visions into proper context. Don't sweat the small stuff. Enjoy Remote Viewing Story Story Story :)

This movie tried to play like a documentary film, but it constantly took you out of that medium by making it abundantly clear that everyone was acting -- and I mean over the top community theater style acting. Exaggerated characters, unbelievable responses, and that ridiculous adventure soundtrack, it just ruined the whole concept. Maybe it could have worked with one or two "aw shucks" funny guys, like the main old dude, but everyone else was just trying too hard. I couldn't get into it. It was so cringe and I wasn't in the mood, so I shut it off after 30 minutes. Surprised I got that far.

Every once in a while I come across a movie that is so bereft of any skill that I wonder how it was released. REMOTE VIEWING, the story of treasure hunt which actually had the seed of a good idea, exactly fits the bill.

The acting, direction, production design and cinematography in this film are so amateurish that it begins to feel like they made it this bad on purpose, as kind of long drawn-out joke. Alas, the movie is not that kind of a joke.

One of the things that made this seem like either an unserious project or an hour and a half-long parody of who knows what was just how unbelievably disconnected the scenes were from the background music. The music, most of it apparently stock, wasn't actually bad, but I find it hard to believe how anyone could have such poor judgment on how it fits the scenes.

The only positive thing I can say is that at least the movie tells a story coherently, and that is about all.

Props are laughable. I think they must have borrowed props from a high school drama club. Acting is mediocre at best, and some of it is textbook bad acting. Devices are ham-handed. There are no plot complications, just plot ideas thrown in for idk, artistic effect or lack of self control. Looking for something positive to say here... Hmmm. Might have to get back to you on that one.

Towards the end, I started wondering if Remote Viewing is just a film makers hoax, where they just are trying to waste as much of your time as possible. Like a directors version of a crank call, but less fun than calling a mortuary and asking for group rates.

Just when I thought it could not get worse, I check the reviews and guess what? One of the actors gave it a positive review. Are you kidding me? Ridiculous. Don't call attention to yourself here Tim. You should just hope this thing fades into the memory hole. Tell everyone you were in college and just "experimenting" or something if Remote Viewing ever comes up.

There was nothing believable anywhere along the way. The story in concept? I don't know because everything else was just so horrible. It probably works out as a great story in a 12 year old writers head, who made the film as a horror movie for 8 year olds. And I mean 8 year old amish kids, because even coca cola commercials are scarier than this waste of time.

OH! Positive idea here: I would recommend watching this to any discouraged aspiring film maker. No matter how bad your project is, watching this film should make you feel better about your writing/directing skills, and inspire you that you are not literally the worst there ever was.

Poor acting, confused story and execution. Also, the fake review tells you what a POS this 'film' is without looking any further.

Not worth watching.
