Distorted (2018) Reviews

• Hmmm

  If there is a movie that is not convincing, this is one of them. I am a little surprised at Ricci being in this, and not surprised that Cusack is. What ever happened to Cusack, are these the only parts on offer to him these days? The movie starts off OK, then folds beneath your eyes. In fact, I was laughing from when Cusack entered the scene. I am blaming the director and editing on this. He is just terrible. The scenes with him are trying to empasise intrigue and mystery and ended up a shambles. Really, I can't say much more, becasue in reality, the movie dosen't deserve it. I'm giving 5 stars for Ricci's sake.

• Completely unwatchable

  Tacky, cheap, complete let down. Badly rendered CGI, horrible sets, the first half an hour is enough to let you know you've picked a dud. How this is above a 5 on imdb is beyond me

  The movie itself wasn't terrible but whomever wrote this movie DOES NOT understand the difference between Bi-Polar disorder, and schizophrenia. Christina Ricci's character is schizophrenic bordering on paranoia.

  I don't have seizure issues but if you're sensitive to flashing bright lights then you might be in for a nasty surprise.. Having said that, i really didn't enjoy this that much, it was a time killer, but at the end of the day I'd rather have my money back. Nothing special about it, the scoring was decent but the movie itself wasn't that entertaining. If you're bored and nothing else is available, go ride a bike instead :) I only give it two stars because Christina Ricci is in it.

• The rating is really Distorted !

  To watch or not to watch ?! That is the question you probably think about right now, so let me guide you through this review : First of all it's less than 90 minutes movie, so you may think they will pass fast regardless the quality of the movie, nevertheless i played it in 1.5x speed to be able to finish it and it wasn't a good experience at all. I think psychological movies are the trend now so everyone tries to make them but this try is unsuccessful. And this is not an excuse to show a couple living in the best looking apartment in the world moving to the second best looking apartment just to overcome their psychological problems. The story is quite acceptable but it wasn't written nor platted well, the music is really annoying so you may like it if you depend on music to merge with the atmosphere of the movie, and the acting is the weakest point. Apparently they were low on budget, and we can see that clearly from the low class actors, the weak level of photography, the black and white poster which looks ancient, and the most fake baby bump you will ever see. Finally, it's less than average movie with an idea that was delivered in a very bad way, it will give you something to wonder about throughout the movie but you will not be excited about it specially with the lack of real suspense though the Mystery/Thriller genre.
