You have got to be kidding

Rating: 1/10 (18 December 2010)

This is the worst film I have seen this year. It was annoying, and just awful, The director in his usual ham-fisted "style" gave us 3 options: It is a disappointing ballet movie, it is part horror and part dance movie and it is a pyscological thriller? It fails completely like all film school-like directors films and is so heavy handed it makes you want to walk out. Ms. Portmans acting consists of 2 expressions grim and crazy grim. The dancing is infantile, with arm waving and spinning around substituting for the real thing. As is true of amateur directors and screen writers, there is NO background given of the lead part, so we have no idea if her actions are real or fiction. It would however make a great film to show film students a showcase film with terrible writing and even worse directing. The dance director is not written skillfully and he is an ass and we have no hint as to why he is the great artist-director of dance, None of the characters are fleshed out as human beings, they are all stock human beings. When one is asked to GUESS what this movie is trying to be, mystery hysterical girl part horror or dream then it is simply not worth wasting your time on.
