Review of Gerald's Game (2017) by Machetedonttext — 22 Oct 2017
What a letdown, I was expecting much more after hearing a few reviews. The biggest problem is that the movie is just utterly boring, I felt no tension or suspense at all, the characters meant nothing to me, and there s really not much happening in terms of plot.
Didnt like the feminist undertone either, although I ve seen way worse, there were a few stupid remarks. The first 15 minutes of the movie are the best, after that I quickly lost interest, the acting is great on the other hand, and the movie is high quality in terms of production, but that is to be expected.
I m not even considering how stupid and unnecessary is the last part of the film is, the whole thing is a huge bore, and I dont generally find it hard to emphatize with characters but this one left me absolutely unmoved.
Not even worth watching once, see 1922 instead, its a very good thriller/horror.
