Portals

In a word? Boring. Monoliths inexplicably turn up all over the world with inexplicable consequences. That's it really. No one seems to know what's going on. Not the characters. Not the actors. Not the director and certainly not the writers. A genre so bent that NOTHING makes sense and it's all a complete waste of your time.

The concept had potential but the implementation failed miserably. It was told as a series of stories which led to a disjointed and confusing anticlimactic end. I doubt the writers had much more than a 5th grade education and certainly never had a class in writing drama. And, who read this script and thought,"Yes, that sounds good!"? Just wow! The actors were OK, the cinematography was decent, even the background music was passable. But the story just didn't have enough legs to go anywhere. It was obvious the writers had no real concept at all and so the individual stories never became cohesive. The whole thing kind of came off as an indy-art-house picture with no real substance. Don't waste your time.

I've watched hundreds of bad movies. Finally, after 37 years of life, I have watched a movie so absolutely horrible that I felt the need to create an IMDB account to review one.

I hope that others like me, those who can happily sit through a bad movie and appreciate it for it's most basic entertainment value, see this review and know to stay away. Don't say you weren't warned.

This is not how a movie works, there is has to be an ending, a conclusion of the story not just putting some random cinema. and what is all about the gore ? it's absolutely not on point for this kind of genre, i tough this is sci-fi it is not !! don't waste you're time for this movie. this is just a garbage.

Portals lacks direction and flails about for much of its run time until it falls over and ends.

The initial plotline has some tantalizing potential but average acting from the movies no name actors and confused directing makes the portals an exercise in wasted time.

It could have been an amazing move but never got there.
