Ash & Dust

Ash & Dust takes the murder revenge story and paints it in three primary colors: white for the absence of hope, black for the finality of death, and red for the bloody consequences of fury. There are no zippy comic relief one liners, no superhuman feats of courage or strength, no Hail Mary miraculous escapes, no perfunctory child in distress, no super villain to outsmart, and no hope in hell for salvation. Made even more melancholoc by a perfectly scored soundtrack, Ash & Dust accomplishes something rarely seen in today's eggshell sidestepping movies, a fierce and unapologetic depiction of death.

This feels like another vanity project, with a well worn plot that they actually still manage to mess up.... There is absolutely no depth to any of the Characters, so much so that you do not feel any empathy for anyone. Nothing is explained, and the story goes nowhere, and actively ignores what may have been interesting sub-plots....

30 minutes nothing happened, and when something starts to happen you realize that there is nothing to see... The director tried to make it special with soundtracks of church and with lots of scenes without talking. The whole movie is just dying people because of a box.

Conclusion: do something better with your life.

Must be the film makers friends/families.

One of the dumbest movies I have seen, and I'm pretty tolerant.

Around 3 words said during the entire movie.

People walking around making faces, grunting.

Lady cop (Millie Idol) I don't believe says 1-word the entire time.

Just horrible really...

25 minutes into the movie and barely anyone talk, the whole thing is so slow that my eyes started to close!

Maybe the movie getting better further on or not but its not my kind of chocolate thats for sure.
