Never been more confused by the positive reception of a film than Nocturama (2016)
SPOILERS
This was the mystery movie at a local cinema, so I had no idea what I was in for.
I don't think I've ever seen a movie that had less happen, contained heavy subject matter yet had absolutely nothing to say then ended with absolutely no meaning to the ending.
I don't mind slow burns, but this movies pacing was incredibly annoying. Shots lingered on characters for far too long. Information that could have been conveyed in a shot that lasted for about 3 secounds lasted about 10. The build up lasted far too long, then when you see what the build up was for, I literally said out loud "was that it?".
Character motivations are soo poorly communication that not having them at all would have been better. Even so, the acts they commit aren't even interesting enough.
Each character death is also unintentionally hilarious. They literally die from a single gunshot would to the chest.
Looked up this movie after finishing and it contains an 82% approval, and for the life of me I cannot understand why.
