Negative Positive
Title: Amateurish
Review: Not the shock to the consciousness it strives to be. Instead it comes off as boring and contrived. There were too many instances and attempts to try to make a statement, and that gave a forced feeling to the movie. The film is a victim of strained scheming which does not allow the viewer to be affected by the content of the images, and the movie comes off as being shallow. The acting is poor and amateurish - the actors frequently take glimpses of the camera, appear wooden or just try too hard. I did enjoy the variety of bizare appearing characters who looked like John Waters or Coen brothers rejects. Also, there were a number of voice overs to home movie quality footage which added a subtle sweetness to the film.
