A Simple Promise (2008)

Review by cekadah

A Simple Promise

1/10

big splash to trash can

If you have never experienced seeing a movie in which the entire production budget was obviously spent on the opening credits, then this is your chance! The opening credits are beautifully done, then the movie/story starts and it's like watching a pyramid of empty beer cans tumble. I realize this is an indie film and usually I like indie films. But the producer/director of this flick was only concerned with a big splash opening then had no idea of what to do with the $44.00 leftover to finish the film.

The acting gets worse with every scene, the characterizations are what - satirical, comical, amateurish? Whatever they are, it is done so poorly, I as viewer, was torn between feeling sorry for the actors because they thought they were 'acting' and feeling contempt for them because they thought they were acting!

No - this movie fails in every way. A pathetic story told poorly, a perfect combination for failure. Save your movie rent money and skip this one hour and thirty minutes of misery.
