Regression (I) (2015)
This is a piece of worthless, mindless nonsense which unfortunately will trick more susceptible people
12 August 2021
There really are no words for just how chronic this beast is. I'm trying to give it zero stars, but if you see one star you'll know I did my best.

It seems to be based upon an idea of a young, pre-teen child imagining himself or herself as if they were a police detective. It bears no similarities to the real world whatsoever.

It is such a terrible film which might manage to keep you watching from a sense of suspense saying it might actually lead somewhere.

It doesn't. It merely disintegrates up its own posterior further and further as it goes along. That's until there is an extra earthquake of indescribable terribleness at the very end (for anyone still awake or giving a damn) which is probably when the beast has turned inside out.

The cameras used, or how they're used, with lenses or in editing, have a really quite relaxing and visually settling effect. That's the other reason how the film may drag you along further into watching its utterly witless nothingness.

One point - it even comes across that it can't be an accident that this film is so appallingly bad. It appears could only have been worked at, hard.

Therefore, ike the person you really *need* to cross the street to avoid for your own state of health, when there's really no option, I strongly advise people that they need to keep away from this. The world of this film is at best empty, pretentious, wildly immature, deluded, attention seeking, at worst rotten to the core at worst.

Strangely there are reviews here which are not bad for this film - but be warned. If you look elsewhere, it was met with strong derision by the critics and serious film review sites give it a very low percentage rating indeed.

Certainly do not pay money for this awful creation, but also do not waste minutes, let alone hours, of *your life* because of it, as I did unfortunately.
