Review by mdinan-66023

Phony

1/10

Waste of time

I've never left a movie review before, but this movie was so terrible I was compelled to do so to save others from wasting over an hour of their life watching this. The movie actually starts off interesting and showed some promise. That's what kept me watching, to see where it was leading and where it was going. About halfway through the film, it just lost all point, direction, and story and just became a film trying to make a film that just didn't work. I hate to bash a young black man attempting to make a film (or doing anything positive), but this was just bad and pointless. The movie begins to argue with itself about the movie and never really reaches any solid ground on having a point. Completely directionless, the characters make no sense and the "plot" ends up being some type of "me too" moment that is very weak and meaningless. I'm mad I wasted my time viewing this, and I hope the director finds actual writers who have plot, theme, purpose, and goals in mind when directing his next film. This could have been soo much better than how it turned out to be.
