Dominique Swain in Tart (2001)

Review by karri_n

Tart

Appealing premise, OMG what a movie.

It's hard to find interesting new movies at video rental shops here, and by a quick review of the back cover text got me interested in this one. Popping the VHS in, I was expecting at least a decent film, but as some others have said, this just might be the worst movie I've ever seen, or at least in the last few years.

First of all, the plot goes nowhere - sure, the main character learns that special something, but the 'climax' of the film comes out of nowhere, making no sense at all. I mean, as far as I could see, the two characters that the climax takes place between had little or no interaction up until the end of the film.

Also, what character interaction took place, was utterly weird and illogical - can't give examples but believe me, you'll notice it when you follow peoples' expressions, tonal changes in the way they talk, strange little pauses between phrases... not only silly interaction, but plain bad acting, too.

Careless directing/shooting too - for example totally different facial expressions when changing the angle while the main character and her crush dance a bit. Bad recording/audio processing, the characters' voices sound totally out of place... Ugh.

The worst thing in this movie is that while it was total rubbish, you wouldn't get any camp thrills either, since you were actually expecting something...

Oh, and BTW, after seeing the film I checked the cover text again - it was plain horrible, too. Had the phrase "everything has it's price" (in Finnish, of course) three times. Also had some information about the plot that wasn't in the movie, or at least wasn't very visible.
