After a day where things annoyingly took ages to sort out,I got home in the mood to catch a easy-going Thriller. One of the first titles to pop up when I searched the genre on Netflix UK,I got an urge for a viewing.
View on the film:
Only working on the flick for three days,Pierce Brosnan gives the title the lone "high"lights of the show as The Man, with Brosnan gleefully cackling and swaggering whilst unrolling cryptic dialogue, whilst fitties (with former Twilight actress Ashley Greene being the most eye-catching) mistake mumbling and shouting for anxious and tense.
Urging each other to try the new drug, the screenplay by debut co-writer/(with Jerry Stahl,Jason Zumwalt and Guy Busick) director Aaron Kaufman slips the pals and the audience a downer, with a terribly messy tale. Shoving each other around, the writers permanently keep the interchangeable characters locked in a obvious mode, making the aggression they show after taking the drug, barely changing them from how they already were.
Sniffing shoddy attempts at a glossy Thriller atmosphere with whip-pans,jump-cut edits and poke in the eye lens flare from director Kaufman & cinematographer Lyle Vincent, the writers snap in a post-credits final twist, which has the unintended effect of highlighting the lack of any clear set-up on the effects of the drug,leading to a loss of any urge.
