Target List (2023)
Do not believe any review you read on this film
It's usually not easy to sum up a movie in a few lines, but not this time: this is a gigantic stinker of a movie which makes absolutely no sense. The situational 'humour' is so cringy it's hard to watch.
The plot is easy: big pharma trying to kill scientists who found a cure for cancer.
What follows is a series of unbelievably stupid actions by our 2 protagonists on the run. While the bad guys are morons, the good guys are definitely worse, but still less idiotic than the police who somehow believe the framing of the head scientist as the killer mastermind.
Throw in the mix a hired gunman who should take some shooting classes and the writer thought he had a watertight script. Boy, was he wrong.
Do not watch this. Seriously, if it's an evening and you have nothing else to do, go outside and watch grass grow, you'll get more enjoyment out of that experience.
You have been warned!
Trunk (2023)
Moronic
Worst movie I have seen in years. Unbelievable from the first to the last minute. Every character in this movie is a moron: the father, the boyfriend, the kidnapper, the police-lady and certainly the victim.
I doubt the writer of this garbage ever checked his script with someone else. Why make every character, including your heroine, so incredibly annoying? After 30 minutes, you're starting to root for the kidnapper to put his victim out of her misery. Really.
So, the victim has a smartphone but is unable to direct the police to her position? Has this writer ever heard of Google Maps or Waze? You can bloody hell track your position within meters.
Do yourself a favour and don't watch this drivel.
Birth (2004)
stinker!
terrible...terrible...terrible... Probably the comments of other people on this board already explain more or less why this movie was almost unbearable to watch, and I'm really not speaking about the pedophiles scenes. What worried me more was the unbelievable story twist the director chose to introduce. Initially the director clearly portrayed the couple as incredibly in love (marrying 30 times in 30 different churches, etc...). As a viewer, we can only believe this and hence understand why Kidman would fall in love with a 10-year old. Now this whole structure is put upside down by suddenly making a 180 degree turn and claiming that Sean actually was in love with another woman (surprise, surprise, YAWN). Now "6th sense"-wise, you can look back and say: indeed, Bruce Willis was dead and the whole movie makes sense. Here, you can only look back and ask yourself: why oh why would Nicole Kidman ever commit herself to this movie? It takes many months to make a movie, involving hundreds of people, isn't there anyone who recognises a stinker and puts a cork on this disaster in progress?
in addition: every scene is conceived around a non-event and is drawn out so long that an inexperienced moviegoer might be duped into thinking (s)he's watching some kind of art. P-LEASE! Even the person carrying the microphone dosed off during about every scene and dropped the mike into view! Quite annoying...
