That's what I mean, the shots and angles are the director of photography's choices, and the director-director simply okays the choices made. So the DP is the one to thank for the good visuals.]]> Tue, 24 Aug 2010 16:34:22 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=34161#34161 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=34158#34158 Author: Vits

Yeah, that's cinematography. If everything looks good on screen, that's the director of photography's doing. If everything else about the movie is bad, that's the director/writer/producer's fault.]]> Tue, 24 Aug 2010 14:55:54 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=34157#34157 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=34154#34154 Author: Vits

Well, if it's a BAD movie, then the directing was that good then. Perhaps you mean good cinematography in a bad movie.]]> Mon, 23 Aug 2010 20:54:31 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=34148#34148 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=34133#34133 Author: Vits

The only good thing in this movie is the twist ending. The twist, I'll admit, is really good, but other than that, it's a boring movie.]]> Sun, 08 Aug 2010 18:07:07 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=33704#33704 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=33701#33701 Author: BurnHollywoodBurn

Talk about a movie so under the radar that no one cared about it!]]> Sun, 08 Aug 2010 17:14:15 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=33701#33701 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1815&PID=33694#33694 Author: Vits

My review: 

THIS MOVIE'S QUALITY WILL "SILENCE" YOU UNTIL YOU'RE "DEAD"(**/*****)  

Spoilers ahead!  

It's hard not to compare it to the SAW movies, also created by James Wan and Leigh Wannell. Those movies are more gory than scary, but their scripts are very smart(mostly the first 3, which Wannell wrote). This movie it's the other way around. The directing is very good when it comes to angles,shots and creating suspense. Unfortunately,the script is bad. 

Aside from the fact evil puppets isn't new,the story how MARY SHAW died is too similar to how FREDDY KRUGER died. 

After most of the mystery is revealed,the movie drags on for about 30 minutes only for us to discover the rest of the mystery,which is boring. Whannell's twist ending(which seems to be a trade mark)was creative,but not shocking because at that point it's hard to still be interested in the movie.
