Giftless directing vs. great actors

Rating: 1/10 (11 February 2015)

I must admit that I decided to give this movie a chance mostly due to some good actors starring in it, plus I assumed it would be kind of like a parody about the superhero genre. From the very beginning something went terribly wrong - it was the music. This pointless, annoying drumming that would not stop. I am sure this "music" was performed by a poorly trained monkey. Then there were those loose pieces of pointless monologue that made no sense. It must have been written by a dysphasia patient. And then I could not help but notice that the dialog was written for merely the sake of producing useless sounds. Kind of like their drumming "music". Even worse than anything else about this movie was lack of any mood. Whoever made this horrible waste of video recording technology was obviously on drugs and disgustingly in love with himself: "oh, look! whatever I do always comes out awesome! and you, common people, must watch this movie standing up and applauding all the time, because if you don't, then any self-important movie critic will tell you that you don't understand art cinema!" The old story of "The Emperor's New Clothes" keeps happening again and again. So, if you watched this pretentious crap of a movie, then don't be afraid to admit that it made no sense, that it wasn't any kind of art, that you actually wasted time. Just cry out: "But he isn't wearing anything at all!"
