Boring...

Rating: 2/10 (27 March 2002)

It sure was hell to sit through this movie. Toward the beginning it was a little intriguing, but quickly degenerated into what amounted to a very bad Stephen King novel (the person reading "It" toward the beginning was interesting...). I could imagine King writing something like this, and I can also imagine myself putting it down before getting 1/3 of the way through.
The ending made no sense to me whatsoever, other than the fact that "time went backward" or something, and he had really been killed by the engine (?). Gosh, how original. The characters were all dull oppressed zombies, and the final 15 minutes of this insufferable film had to be the most painful of all... this almost became the first movie I turned off *in the last 15 minutes*.
Someone commented that you had to have had emotional problems to understand this movie. Don't think so. "Pump up the Volume" I liked a lot... this one was a total waste of time. Can I go back to before I put the film in the VCR and have an airplane engine fall on my head? Please??
Dull, boring, immature and incomprehensible -- will give it 2/10 stars for the attempt at weird, gothic originality.
