Dawning (2009)
Stay away!
I for the life of me can't understand how this so called "film" has gotten a single vote above a 2. I view at least 6 films a week, and this really had my hopes up. "Truly original", "An end you never saw coming"..... Come on! If by original you mean terrible, and with an ending you never saw coming you mean non-existent, I'm inclined to agree. It starts out slow, and I am talking snails' pace in winter slow. It finally picks up half way through, with the realization of telepathy. However, with the lack of character development it only frustrates the viewer. Coupled with less than B-Movie acting, and an extremely weak story line, this movie is an utter fail. The only promise shown was the fruition of the story. The whole time watching this film I was waiting for an ending that could have at least somewhat redeemed this picture. Unfortunately, the end was worse than the movie already was, making for one of the biggest let downs I've experienced in a long time. I'm all about open endings like in "The Violent Kind", (which was great) but at least you could draw your own conclusion, or talk about the possibilities of their fate. At any rate, this movie was beyond a waste of time.
