I know that it has been a few days since I sat down to write
something up. I have tried, and even watched a couple flicks, but between
picking up a daughter in Virginia, a softball tournament, and a holiday party,
I have not really been on the computer. To try to get things moving in the right
direction, here is my next entry. It is the 2017 action/sci-fi flick The Shadow
Effect.
Plot/ A young man's life is turned upside down when his
violent dreams begin to blend with reality.
I grabbed this one at Family Video because the synopsis
seemed interesting and most importantly different from what I have been
watching. Unfortunately, the film did not come across in the manner that would
make it easy to watch and intriguing. The performances are good enough, but the
scripting and pacing seemed to be lacking. In fact, the movie felt like a
strung together combination of popular action and sci-fi films that have
recently come out. Overall, the film just felt extremely disjointed. In the
end, unless you have nothing else to watch, I would definitely stay away from
this one.
