Review Time: this
project is mixed.
Fundamental elements: there is background music, music performances, cultural
elements, slow-motion effects, mental imagery, voice-over elements, no
subtitles when another language is being used [I am aware that they are singing and they are in the background; but
this is something I usually pick up on anyway and just to cover my own back
there may or may not be times where I have missed out on this or other
elements,] time jumps and place jumps.
Well
straight off the bat this idea that I am now going to illustrate to you was
such a bad idea; now for some strange reason this title uses slow-motion
effects consistently and I have no idea why this is, it does nothing for the
film in a positive sense.
Storyline: generally speaking I became slightly disinterested in
this title, I say slightly because it does have some elements worth watching
[without giving too much away,] the two husbands and wives individual
storylines [two marriages.] But for the rest I can tell already it won't stay
in my head or memory for too long, maybe little bits here and there [maybe I am
being a little bit harsh and I will explain later why this is; I'm not
backtracking on anything I have said, but for balance and fairness, I will
discuss this more later on.]
Action sequences: there are weapons being used and combat elements.
Character developments/Performances: the character developments are something reliable and the
performances are solid and it does feel like every performer is doing their
part to make this project work, maybe this storyline is okay or solid if it
wasn't for the annoying slow-motion effects, my point is [and I am aware that
this is here or there because we don't know,] but maybe this film would have
been better if there wasn't any yes I did just say any slow-motion effects in
this title, I can think of only one time that I can remember maybe when the
slow-motion effects are okay, it is where a character gets shot in the throat.
But if someone said to me "You can have all or nothing with these
slow-motion effects? " I would have said quickly and happily "Take
them all out please."
This film receives: 4/10, I was going to give this project a different mark
but after taking everything into consideration I felt this mark was better
suited.
