j f @LiberteBurrows Oct 29 Trafficking and psyops. It’s just Tube City. See more M B @Timbero Aug 8 Interesting but uneven horror style movie. Starts very well but then splits off a bit before coming together in the end. Worth a watch if you like movies from this era. See more thiago s @Thiagostone Jul 1 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas de terror são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Stephen C @bob25009 Jun 14 Success in 1 hour and 58 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See more Blu B @RT43513976 12/02/2024 I am really torn betweena 3 or a 3.5 here. I feel like a 3 but objectively speaking it's a bit better than that and probably my personal taste geting in the way. But yeah....umm...this is something. It's a thriller, comedy, boring drama, and horror movie that feels like a sister flick to Carrie even at times. Which makes sense given the director who is the best thing about this. His direction is solid throughout this. The camerawork and framing at times is really good, the soundtrack isn't bad but I wish it was used more in the first half. Ironically enough the pacing here isn't bad but it can bea bit all over the place. Everything else is just alright about it. This is a stronger film in the first half and actually is kind of good overall. The Kirk Douglas scenes are the best parts which the first half is mostly. Than we get to see his girlfriend, the girl whose psychic powers help track down his son, an explanation of the program and psychic stuff and his son. It's very jumbled, messy, and boring but well directed. The worst part of this is Durning's scenes which are just straight plot expose that goes on for a while and get so boring. It feels like two completely different films. Douglas and everything else with one being clearly better. The plot is just straight insane. The kidnapped son of a former government secret agent who has psychic powers who has a romance with someone involved to find said son. The ending is just crazy also. And than the editing which is something. This has a jumbled but interesting tone. Sometimes it feels like a horror movie, than others a government conspiracy and sometimes I don't even know. Than there are parts that feel like there missing or out of order. We get one 30 second scene of the father and son bonding which felt rushed. Were just thrown into crazy action with no explanation or setup. We don't really see any of Douglas character, the sons, Durning who is just a plot expose NPC, and the women in this are interesting characters but the acting by them isn't anything special to make them stick out. No one important enough really has any character in this it feels like or has time to have any because we gotta keep up with the insane plot which can feel rushed too. Finally the acting is all over the place. Douglas is alright, the son isn't that good and feels like Anikan from the prequels near the end. The women are super forgettable. The bad guys are super generic and have no character either. Than there is jsut straight insane moments like the ending which would be a sin to spoil. It's crazy insanity at times, bizzare tone at times, and solid direction is what somehow makes this entertaining though most of the time. If your a a big fan of any actors in this, or the director, or REALLY out there New Hollywood flicks than maybe check this out. This is one of the craziest things I've seen.
