A Major Disappointment

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

It's so terrible that I'm on the internet writing a review, which I never do. It's not funny. I don't want to see Patrick Renna in any more movies. Just replacing him would have drastically improved the movie. This would have been better with a few changes. It's not funny but there's a clear effort to be funny, which is why it's listed as a dark comedy. Okay, you could've had a great movie here if you did away with the comedy act and went for a more edgy drama, minus Patrick Renna, of course. I bet the Kickstarter contributors are disappointed.

The ending seemed like the writers accidentally added from what was meant to be for a different movie lol. Made zero, ZERO sense. Acting was fine.

I started this movie, thinking it would be a classic raunchy/semi-satirical comedy of 21st century. I was quickly proved wrong. Overall, I give "Bad Roomies" a 3 out of 10 star rating. This film started out funny, I'll admit. A lot of the jokes were funny, the stuff they did was comical, and a lot of the lines were very well/cleverly-written. The cinematography was also pretty dang good; it was shot very well, with a good usage of natural lighting. Then, the movie got confusing. Then, stupid. Then, in the second half of the film, everything was very confusing, weird, and kind of stupid. I did not enjoy this movie very much overall; it was a WASTE OF TIME and I really don't understand other watchers of this movie that say it was any good.

I thought this movie was well put together. At first given its premise I was going to flick through stopping here and there if something caught my attention however I actually found the movie interesting and watched it all. In truth I found Annie Monroe's performance captivating. Her co-stars gave strong performances as well. And the ending: dark comedy to perfection. The movie is not pretentious in any way but rather draws the viewer in at the start with comedy which gradually gets darker and darker with surprising twists and turns. They keep your interest for sure and I found myself drawn to the characters and empathizing with them. I mean the movie had just the right balance between acting and plot so you could suspend disbelief and enjoy the movie for what it was: a darkly funny rendering of roommates desperately unbalanced.
