Ai ja jaih. Au...Why these exclamations of pain? Because this is the same director of Looper. Very fascinating at the start, but completely gibberish and mash patatoes.

Rating: 4/10 (17 February 2020)

Beware. Now read again, BEWARE. This movie came from the same director that gave us "Looper". Fascinating and SEEMINGLY intricate at the start, but after half an hour this director was ONLY capable of PRETENDING to be interesting, because anybody who knows LOOPER knows it's masterfully photographed and acted, but COMPLETELY lacking in coherency, lacking in ANY kind of grit, gut, spark or punch. Basically all the movies this director makes are somehow messed up. It's gibberisch, mash patatoes, nice but you cant get your hands around it.
The story: Agatha Christie detective story. (Another) intelligent, well acted, but TOO complicated who dunnit story about a murder.
The good: the acting is great. Really. It's a bit too much, a bit OVER acted, but that is done for the comedy effect.
The bad: it's a mess. It just does not mold together. It's going everywhere and nowhere simultaneously. It's simply put, TOO MANY PLOTLINES glued together, just for the sake of it. Wannabe smart writing. Wannabe smart direction.
This movie is a WANNABE.
