More genius than I suspect even the director realizes. Deus ex machina, perhaps?
movie review
The Veteran (2012) 40%
The emotional ambiguity of the protagonist infects the viewer so much that even a bloodbath climax engenders no feeling.
Annabelle (2014) 30%
Apparently the Incredibly Creepy Doll Company did brisk business in the 1960s.
Alice in Wonderland (1951) 60%
An animated spectacle.
The Departed (2006) 70%
I think top billing should have gone to a mobile phone, given the preponderance of screen time.
Duplex (Our House) (2003) 30%
Benign.
The Facility (2013) 30%
Low budget plus some art house cinematography does not constitute a good movie.
Earthling (2012) 30%
As if a screenwriter worked backward from a fully-formed story, then parceled pieces of it to create viewer intrigue along the way. Unfortunately, doing that requires more exposition than was included in the film.
A Walk Among the Tombstones (2014) 60%
Unremarkable, yet refreshingly competent and conventional crime thriller. Scott Frank is pretty good at these.
Elephant White (2011) 20%
Looks like they just barely ran out of space to credit Jirantanin Pitakorntrakul on the promotional poster. SPOILER Man kills a multitude of pimp gangsters using a variety of guns. Also ghosts, elephants, and Kevin Bacon’s bad accent.
