Good movie but grossly overrated
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
What I saw here was a bit of cinematic satire on the who done themes. The movie was NOT written or directed to be taken so seriously. It was a fun watch for me and it wasn't until about a third of the way through, I lightened up and saw this film through the glass of the directors.Its met to get fun, not taken seriously as Jack the Ripper. So, I will give this DVD another watch and at least a six. Just sit back, put your feet up and watch it. From the very beginning you can see, this film is tongue in cheek.This could be seen as a little dig upon the the phony message, once wed always stay true or the buggy man will come for you.
My friend had rented Dark Honeymoon & said I will love, he was right. Imagine 1 AM - can't sleep, total darkness outside and only the sound of police sirens in the distance. What joy to get lost in a film that delivers! The cast is top rate; Roy Schieder, Daryl Hannah, Eric Roberts, Lindy Booth - how can you go wrong with this cast, the story was great. Why isn't this in theaters? I would pay to see this and so would my friends. It felt like I was watching a modern version of film noir and Psycho! I was waiting for Norman Bates to appear! WOW! Love, Marriage, Murder! The bodies are piling up. Each death puts you more and more on the edge of your seat! What a ride!
These were over 80 minutes of semi unexpected boredom. First, I was wondering how it is possible to produce something like that. Then, reaching 70th minute I was convincing myself that it's only a few more minutes, and I lasted to the very end which I'm kinda proud of as I consider watching this movie as a great test for human's patience and crap tolerance. Was it worth watching at all? Well, as I wrote above, if you want to test yourself, give it a try and if you're strong willed enough, you may even last to the end... The movie lacks coherence and characters seem to have no common sense at all. All happenings in the movie, you can be sure you saw somewhere before, and they seem to be put in this movie just to fill the film reel.
Roy Sheider, Tia Carrere, Daryl Hannha, Erik Roberts (may well have lost his Role in Batman had this been on his showreel)... some good names from a few years back...how bad can it be you ask yourself. somehow the director has even made these actors appear like this is their first time in front of a camera, pinnocio was less wooden I must admit I couldn't watch the whole film, in fact 20 minutes was enough for me despite all the flaws others have mentioned, the writer must be held accountable for this misguided story, one of a million all seen before, I assure you now, any good reviews on this movie must be from the directors mother.
