Secret Window (2004)

 

Typical suspense build-up with jump scares. I didn't buy the second half with the multiple personalities. 

Rating: D

Cry, The Beloved Country (1995)

I watched this rather than reading the book for a college writing assignment. It was a slow moving film about struggle in Apartheid South Africa. James Earl Jones plays his part well. Nothing I would have gone out of my way to see had it not been for an assignment. It was ok.

Rating: C

Legion (2009)

For an action film, there was way too much drama and chit chat in the middle, when things slowed down to a crawl. There were literally 4-5 perfect moments to use the restroom, had I needed to pee.

Since the story wasn't anything spectacular, and the cinematography basically consisted of the same boring set, the action needed to be amped up significantly in order for this to be entertaining. Poorly executed.
