The List Movie Reviews

terrible, terrible, terrible

Dialogue is mostly made up of cliches, plot is unsurprising, acting is bland and the characters are absurd and unnuanced. All in all a terrible experience and really a total waste of time. Why didn’t anyone pull the brakes on this, before getting this far?

The movie suffers mostly from the writers lack of imagination, like the politician without empathy, the weddingplanner without empathy, the boyfriend without empathy (sorry, did I repeat myself? Maybe I should be a script writer), the conversations without depth, the sad sighs from the audience, when the dialogue is trying to be funny.

Maybe just add som kittens and puppies, so there could be something interesting to watch, while wasting precious time on this.

I simply can not recomend this to anyone and I don’t know, how the movie ends, because like my ex-wifes cooking, I couldn’t finish it all.

The editing butchered this movie so bad

I’m quite mad given how actually good the bulk of the story is compared to the editing, the rhythm of the dialogs.

And if you can go pass that, you might actually laugh over some really good lines like I did.

But sometimes it just sounds like you’re following a conversation made of voice messages on a cellphone. One abrupt and disconnected vocalization after the other.

The movie was shot in “19 days” and for the scope of what’s presented, all the moving parts, they did a great job, so shout out to that.

But again, I can’t stress enough how unflattering in post-production the editing was.

I bet this can be saved. Gosh, I hope someone does it.

Well meaning, light hearted, it’s like a slightly edgy hallmark movie

The List is a perfectly decent movie. It’s quite well made. It’s quite well acted. And it’s quite funny in parts.

Where it falls down is it’s lack of oomph, lack of punch, lack of edginess. This is mainly down to the direction and the writing……and the plot with it’s conveniences and contrivances……and the ending that is telegraphed in the first half of the movie…..and the weak comedy editing make the slapstick scenes seem a little wooden.

The biggest problem with the direction is the almost constant use of montage and the problem with the script is the constant LA pop culture references.

Maybe singletons in California will get more from this movie more than I did.
