Washed Away

You call this acting?? Try as she may even Emmanuelle Vaugier couldn't save this movie from all of the BAD acting. The actress who played Brooklyn did not get the part on her acting skills alone, quite surely she is the producer or directors wife, daughter or niece. You can also see the twists and turns from a mile away. Don't waste your time watching such horrible acting, with the exception of Emmanuelle Vaugier .

I normally do not write a review but could not pass after seeing this horribly executed movie ..... Worse directing EVVVVVEEEER!! There was not one camera shot over 3 seconds. Most of them were 1 and 2 seconds each with 90% being stupid close-ups of ears, teeth, necklaces, car windows, an eye, shoulder, trees, a neck, necklace, a backside and could name 100 more. There was NO TIME to focus on the characters and what they were "trying" to say from all that jumping around and all those ridiculous and USELESS camera closeups. The dialogue was ridiculous. They were mostly one word or 1 sentence, SOMETIMES 2 sentences! As far as the "scenes??", I felt I was looking at jumping beans hurrying to say a line or two (remember 1-3 second shots) and trying to act their part "convincingly". All of this combined in the 1-3 second shots got me so dizzy and frustrated that I have dots in front of my eyes because I was trying to focus; my stomach is actually nauseated as I write this review. I could tell watching this movie in the first 3 minutes it was made by amateurs who THOUGHT they were being creative; then again I thought MAYBE it would right itself and have some redemptive qualities,,,,,,WRONG!!!!!,,,,,,,I slugged it out a total of 27 more minutes I kept fast forwarding) because I thought this "movie??" must have some redemptive quality seems almost impossible that it did not make the chopping block (from the powers-that-be) and thrown into a dumpster. The ending was pretty predictable. The best actor was the investigator. I really can't blame it on the actors which probably performed each "scene?" in one take....as "directed???". This director needs to go back to director school.

I thought this made for TV was actually pretty good with some interesting plot twists, and a satisfying ending. However, I found many of the characters particularly unpleasant that I have to comment: Character What I thought of them Parker Creepy Weasel Brooklyn Two-timing, money hungry, witch Travis Creepy tool Anyway, it was fun to watch, especially the ending.

I thought this was a good theme for a movie until I started watching it. Terrible acting - terrible plot - what a waste of time. Unfortunately it was an obvious "Canadian made" movie - sorry guys - this rated a zero!!
