I must admit that I was expecting more from the 2016 crime comedy "Prevenge" from writer and director Alice Lowe after I read the movie's synopsis. Sure, when I picked up this movie I hadn't even heard about it, so I didn't know what I was in for. But the synopsis sounded okay, so I sat down to watch "Prevenge".
This movie was a swing and a miss for me. Sure, the concept of the storyline was good and definitely had interesting aspects to it and lots of potential. But the execution of the movie and the transition from script to screen just didn't bring much of any enjoyment or entertainment to me. Why? Well, because the movie was so horribly scripted and forced, and there was no natural flow to the storyline. And it didn't really help much that the characters in the movie had the appeal of drying wall paint.
The acting performances in "Prevenge" were adequate, but they performers had little material to work with, and it was restricting them.
I found "Prevenge" to be somewhat boring and pointless actually, especially since the characters were bland.
My rating of "Prevenge" lands on a more than generous three out of ten stars.
