Review of H (2002) by Jesse O — 17 Jul 2011
This was a pretty fucking crummy movie. Shit acting, especially by the lead female detective. This character annoyed me to no end, with her Justin Bieber haircut and her 'I have no emotions' attitude because she was trying to be a badass was really annoying.
It would be one thing if the performance was good, but it wasn't so it made it worse. But yea the rest of the cast wasn't good anyway. The story was uninteresting and bland. The directing was pretty amateurish.
And the twist was fucking horrendous. Why is it that movies have twists? A twist used to mean that it made sense in the context of the story because they dropped clues and the twist is a logical way to tie all the clues together.
They dropped clues in this movie, to set up the twist. But the twist itself is an absolute disaster. It was fucking hypnosis by the real killer. It's absurd. Then again the killer felt pain when his mother tried to abort him while he was in the womb, so I guess this guy is all powerful and can make a detective do his work for him.
Just ridiculous. I wonder what people think when they come up with this horrendous twists. "Hey, the movie isn't innovative enough, so we need a non-sensical twist to spice things up a bit".
What these people fail to realize is that said twists can make a good movie into a below average one and an average movie into a terrible one. Just a terrible movie from beginning to end. Not all foreign thrillers should be released over here, because, inevitably, you're going to bring over one of the really shitty ones, like this movie right here.
