Review of White Noise (2005) by Hector E — 17 Dec 2009

I should of known when it had Michael Keaton in the cast. A possibly good actor in line of bad movies and acting. There is hardly any movies of his that I have enjoyed. He should just get back with Tim Burton and make something credible. (or maybe not) Well regardless of my distaste, this is hardly a reason to not watch a movie, although this movie sucked. I am not really sure what this movie was supposed to be. It jumps in all these directions as if to maybe persuade us into a surprise ending. Was that what it was supposed to be? I don't know.

EVP. A large amount of time is used to teach us about the concept. I guess the audience are conceived to be idiots and are unable to comprehend something that isn't going to be used anyways. (or it might just be that the core audience was intended to be under the age 12) The filmmakers could of simply exemplified that television sets and radios were possessed by ghosts and that would of made the same sense as how they tried to portray the Electronic Voice Phenomenon. Maybe that made it seem more horrific. Although it is the basis, its significance becomes so irrelevant in the movie. The idea of getting in contact with lost loved ones becomes an obsessed concept of altering what may happen to certain people in the future. Finally in the end we are left with a conclusion of loved ones reunited? A crime sovled? Ghosts? A milieu of static? What?!!! What ever the reason, it comes down to being irrelevant like all the other scenes in the movie we are made to work with. Clusters of useless information not working together or just simply trivial.
