Imaginary (2024)
However bad you imagined, this is worse.
It's difficult to know where to begin.
The plot is wafer-thin and the actors are given so little to work with its a wonder they saw this project through. At least the dad had the good sense to check out halfway through.
This movie is so bad in every way. It started with some reasonable ideas. The creepy kid, the mad old lady and a forgotten troubled childhood but the movie just wastes these ideas.
The bizarre final act is full of awful monologues and exposition and possibly the most pathetic final monster committed to film.
This move has less depth, plot and scares than an episode of the old Goosebumps TV series.
Do yourself a favour and do something else with your time.
Box: Metaphor (2023)
Boxed in.
A very dull film that thinks it has much more to say than it actually does.
You learn more from the plot synopsis on this site than you do from watching this film. It may have been a good idea in concept but this movie conveys nothing of note to the viewer.
Nothing is explained and there is no set up, pay off or character arc at all within the movie. The motives of any of the people in this film are not explained or developed.
If you want a scathing attack on modern society go watch The Platform or Infinity Pool instead.
The special effects are like something from a Neil Breen film and the poor lighting offers little to show any acting from the main character.
1 star.
