Review of Red Lights (2012) by Alexei G — 22 Aug 2014
This movie is very oversold at best, and I honestly can't help but think it doesn't know what message it's trying to send. I mean, the film at first seems like it's advocating an arrogant form of skepticism, but by the end the film goes the opposite direction.
But that's the least of my worries. The characters are uninteresting and the two protagonists are both painfully arrogant most of the time (Cillian Murphy's character comes obscene arrogance with a very shifty attitude later in the movie).
Lastly, save for some exceptions, the film is not very thrilling or interesting and a lot of the story feels like an arbitrary conspiracy tale. The only good thing I have to say is that at least the music is at a natural pitch compared to most movies.
