Too Late

The concept has promise. The horror element is fairly strong. The acting is suitable, and star Alyssa Limperis is charming. Plot development is thin, however, and the narrative at large is hardly better.

The makeup, blood and gore, and otherwise effects in the last length of the film are fine. The climax generally is done well, where we also get dialogue that contains minor thematic content. But by that point I was hardly in the state of mind to care - it was (pardon me) too little, too late.

Passing moments are sufficiently amusing to provide levity. Call me a cynic, though - I don't think a Venn diagram comparing "levity" and "comedy" is a circle. Which leads me to necessarily ask: Was 'Too late' supposed to be funny?

Those elements that are done well are unremarkable, and meager, and far outweighed by so much more that makes no impression at all. This isn't bad. Just dull. So very, very dull. So dull that it may as well be a total clunker for the near total lack of entertainment.

Watching 'Too late' is like suffering through an unfunny open mic night - I just feel bad for everyone on the stage. And for the audience. And for the producers. And...

Ask me and ill eat you too said the standup ever so grumpy old man comedian, after viewing too late, a black comedy full of irony and it will make your ever so smirky smile become eeven more smirky, cause it has its jokes and crannies and some small jolts of 110 volts shock and awe moments, but its all hung up on the basic level, no real hi's or lows, much talk and jismick humour with a bizarre backstory thats told in bits and pieces over a well informed timeline, by seasoned acting crew that does their job.

So its a film that some people wil idolize and analyze due to its freaky nature, but to define it as a cult classic i wont. Its hard to gengrefy and its so darn average that you cant kill joe or bob with a joke of a comedian fed on sleeping pills, so therefore a small recommend, as a time consumer it works, to widen your lungs and lengthen your life i wont guaratee...

It's cute but for the most part, it is just okay. Might have worked better as tightened-up half-hour episode of a horror anthology series. The cast is good. The gore is silly.

Brilliant take on the entertainment industry. Loads of great performances.

Perhaps too scary, I was worried the whole time.
