Aged

Holy Smokes , where do I begin on the stupidity of this movie ? First of all Miss gray has to be the stupidest woman I've ever met in my life she has so many chances leave but she just keeps on staying. The whole movie just makes no sense at all the acting is horrendous the old lady you just hate her so bad you just want this movie to end but it keeps going on and on and Miss gray keeps staying there talk about a horrible job this should never been made and what's with the pancake makeup all over that old lady just a horrendous movie avoid at all costs and you will thank me later wow talk about horrible.

The movie gets a 3/10 only because of the premise which I like and the acting of Veronica, that's all it gets. There's many issues with this movie, and I'll cut it some slack as you know the budget wasn't great for this, however, this doesn't mean I'll disregard every problem that it has.

My worst complaint here is the audio mixing, it's terrible! I haven't seen a movie with such bad audio in a lot of time. 90s movies had better audio balancing than this! A character could speak from anywhere from the camera and they would be heard the same, be it next to it or far away, it all sounds the same.

The pacing was also a nightmare. I consider myself a patient person and even I had to skip through minutes of nothing throughout the movie. There's a chance that skipping 15 minutes ahead won't make you miss anything, and this doesn't mean anything good with any movie, even more so when the runtime is on the shorter side for this decade.

Overall, a disappointment with a lot more downs than ups, 3/10, would not recommend.

There is little to no consistency in the character's makeup between scenes. That's just one of my pet peeves. The main character misses so many red flags that it is absolutely absurd, and you just want to slap her across the face. Then the character of the Alzheimer's riddled Mother, just does not ring true at all. Her Alzheimer's behaviors do not come and go, in an organic way. She usually comes off as a nasty hateful person who has her witts about her, completely. There is literally only one scene where the patient has a fleeting moment of Dementia, then you never see it again. And it's not all due to the supposed effects of what is happening in the storyline. It appears to be bad story telling and bad editing. The story has so many gaping holes in the plot, that I don't understand how it got past an underwriter's desk.

There was some potential for something better here, but it wasn't awful. A low budget/street clothes affair with one dimensional sound design hold it back, as the muddled story pieces had me scratching my head, wondering when it was going to fit together to say something profound. Unfortunately, it never really does, but the track score and a few interesting scenes kept me in the seat long enough to see it through. OK for a low budget execution, however, it was a somewhat unsatisfying conclusion that leaves a plot hole or three that just didn't amount to much other than playing out the obvious.

I just watched Aged and I really enjoyed this movie. I'm not a horror movie kind of person but this was done right. The actors really threw themselves into their roles although I was a little skeptical in the beginning (too many signs for the main character to not be in that place) but as the movie progressed i was pulled into it. I did not know where it was going and i must say that was a good thing because many times you can predict the ending of a movie midway through but not AGED. This movie had me and I must say I did not expect the ending....totally had me shocked. I would watch this movie again. Great movie.
