Chances are, this is more a serious flaw in the script, which would account for why the studios wouldn't allow a preview of the film out, and why Keanu Reeves isn't talking about the movie. I hear the official website has the skinny on this, if you need to know how a film like this gets made. And I won't even go into how bad the they make Marisa Tomei in this film. Overall, The Watcher has a semi-cool soundtrack that was far too reminiscent of The Matrix soundtrack for my tastes. The shaky camera movement and time-lapse photography used to create imagery like the blurring of headlights was cool a few years back, but now feel like just more Hollywood clich s that clutter rather than add to the final product.
Some shots are far too dark, and make entire scenes murky and hard to follow.
Hate to be brutal, but The Watcher is definitely a film to miss. Children's Value Rating Too much talk of murder, as well as several graphic scenes where women are shown dead in a pool of blood, obviously sliced at the neck from being strangled with piano wire. Kids shouldn't want to see this movie, but if they do, parents should be aware that it will be extremely frightening to them, and would likely cause night terrors. Net All Rights Reserved.
