Sore Gums Widsom Teeth Extraction

Eden Log

Year: 2007 Country: France Director: Franck Vestiel Format: Monsters Version: DVDRip

Synopsis: A man awakens with no memory in a strange cave. Gradually he learns that the roots of a tree, mutants live there and is becoming one of them ... but why?

Initial Impression: Intriguing, very intriguing. Wanting to know what happens in this place makes you stand how boring it many times.


Script and Development: Ah! My old friend the amnesia! Whenever you want cheaply intrigue your audience, give your protagonist amnesia, is easy and fast and so viewers discover with amazement as things as the character. It's a bad application, but works well, especially when you have a plot so intriguing and mysterious as this movie (workers missing in the roots of a tree around which seems to turn all mutants, concealing a secret soldiers, a surface on which we know nothing ...). But he has a problem, the main character has no charisma, nor have any of the characters that are in their way which makes it rather boring way to his side, just getting interesting at the time when begins to unravel the mystery.

Ah, how I wish that this story belongs to a most entertaining film! Or a game (with the amount of video game characters beginning with amnesia, would not be out for nothing), but anyway, if you want to discover an interesting insight Sci-Fi in a world dependent on a single source of energy and interesting mysteries to discover, watch it, but have the patience of a saint.


Direction and technical aspects: The movie looks great, though. I love the look of the Sci-Fi "Dirty" and dystopian, also uses a very appropriate color palette (so dull that sometimes seems to be white and black).

The final, which could be surprising, use a CGI not very good, it distracts a little and weakens what should be a powerful conclusion.


Actions: Meh ... the characters are forgettable and the protagonist overact a lot.


Reflections: This film is believed smarter than it is. Although the plot if it is wise, his "message" on the class struggle, corporate arrogance and • depletion of natural resources is too "in your face" and development for the too confusing to matter. If one wants to influence the public should be subtle.

• The Good: The concept is very, very good ...
  
  
• Bad: ... but the answer is very, very boring.
  
  
• Ugly: I confused a few times watching the movie and it made me longer than era.

SCORE: 5.5/10
