So much average

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Uninhabited (2010) I thought this was going to full on full found footage movies but again was so-what disappointed that it wasn't.Like I said in my last post, i not fan of Mixed of hand held and normal filming, it dose not work for me.I thought this movie sounded great, the idea was really good and the locations was great. There could have done so much more with this movies, it's mind boggling, it kinds slow in places and really predicable in some places. The acting was decent from short cast and for once I actually liked the last scenes of the movie, I thought it was decent end to a worth watching movie. 4 out of 10

This movie was flawed by some terrible decisions in the writing. It is not as horrible a film as a lot of people here have made it out to be but I thought it had a number of very disturbing moments, especially in the first 3/4 or so. They just didn't know how to end it. Like a lot of Aussie movies it's a very unconventional film. This one is a peculiar mix of good execution and terrible execution. Personally I liked it much better than any mass-market horror movie I've seen in the last 20 years (like the Scream, Saw and Final Destination franchises which are perfectly executed tripe.)Don't expect it to be a conventional film. The movie was basically ruined by the hamhanded ending but until the end it looked like it was going to be OK. It's almost as if two different writing crews worked on it, one professional and the other made of junior high kids.

After watching the more highly-produced, space horror flick "Europa Report", I wasn't expecting much from this flick. But these Aussies know how to make B-movies at least better than Americans or Brits. "Wish You Were Here" was also another slow-burn Aussie flick.This film is about a young couple who camp out on an uninhabited island for 10 days. Or so they think it's uninhabited. Unlike "Europa Report", this film throws us a creepy bone every now and then to keep us interested, and the run-in with the Greek fisherman was well-placed and suspenseful actually. The acting by the male was NOT bad; I don't know what these others are talking about. The couple did make some bad choices, but that's the writer's fault, and the choices weren't beyond the pale, since they DID believe some kids were pranking them (after all, if there was something more sinister going on, they would have done it at night).The resolution/wrap-up is a little confusing, and some moments don't work as well as others, but all-in-all, a fairly entertaining and short movie. There are NO cringeworthy moments that I could see.

Or "Dark Beach" as the German title says. Beautiful people on an island and every sort of logic is thrown out. Or sinked and drowned the moment they sat foot on the island. The actors try their best to make it worth watching, but it really drags. The question is, does it drag from the first moment for you or 5 minutes in? Only you can answer that question, if you are willing to watch it.It was a nice touch for me to see (and hear) Greek being spoken in the movie (by actual Greeks), but it doesn't really add anything to it. There is some sort of "Retribution" towards the end and the overall story wouldn't be that bad ... but unfortunately it is.
