Pretty Darn Awful

Rating: 3/10 (6 April 2005)

I was looking forward to seeing this movie. I go to the movies AT LEAST once a week, and see most everything that's "out there". I was first struck by the "black and whiteness" of this movie! Very original and very well done. Loved the little "splash of color" added every now and then. I settled in waiting for the story to develop! And I waited some more! Now I started feeling like I wanted to leave! I looked around and everyone else seemed to be enjoying the movie. The longer I stayed waiting for ANY plot to develop, the more I felt like someone was running their fingernails down a blackboard. No amount of fabulous acting (which there was)could rescue this movie for me. I wanted out!!!! This was SO bad! And I must admit the what story there was to tell, was very sad and very graphic, like that could help. P.S. My husband enjoyed the movie!
