Review of Midlothia (2007) by Luke W — 18 Dec 2008
This film is a dark satire, while it serves as commentary on the undereducated poor of industrialized rural communities of Texas. In real life, the city of Midlothian itself is a an extremely depressing place to be.
(It's on the EPA watchlist as one of the unhealthiest places to live in America; residents of Midlothian call it the Cement Capital of Texas.) I'm frustrated, because I can't express my rating as a percentage.
My rating is not arbitrary. I give it an 82% rating, based on acting, story, directing, editing, and other criteria. Bill Sebastian, the filmmaker, adapted this film from a stage play, so it's not as action-oriented as Bill's ninja film, nor is there as much slapstick humor.
