Strong Premise - Destroyed

Rating: 3/10 (4 January 2016)

This film takes a decent and interesting premise and reduces it to absurdity through poor writing and direction. At a time in the future, the government sanctions one night a year where all crimes are legal, including murder. This releases gangs of ruthless offenders on to the streets to do nasty deeds; it also feeds some kind of left wing dream as represented in this movie. The premise is ruined when the plot depends entirely on the players doing illogical things to keep it moving. The film is further destroyed when the writers turn it into a long ad for their political agenda. It is not worth the time it takes to watch.
