Review of The Jammed (2007) by Nicholas B — 02 Mar 2009
I'm going to be the sour grape in the field and disagree with you Mark. I had high hopes for this when I first saw it a while ago and I was honestly disappointed. I'm a big Emma Lung fan and I just didn't buy her act as the lost Chinese girl. Burmeister was good if not a big exaggerated in her performance. Amanda Ma was wonderfully underplaying it though I feel. The urination scene was a bit unnecessary though.
Camerawork and editing was well executed though. I bought it for $10 from Video Ezy about a year ago and I don't regret it but it wasn't all I was hoping for considering the high praise it received when it first premiered. I do recommend people download it (last I heard the official site was offering it as a free download) for a viewing to support local talent though. It is an enjoyable watch, if not a bit too confronting at times.
