Re-cycle (2006)
5/10
Very mixed feelings about this one
17 April 2007
On the hand the visuals are great and beautiful! The drama in this movie was surprising and certainly not expected! Only the story was a bit lacking which destroyed what could have been a wonderful experience! It starts out as a horror then becomes a fantasy and ends up as a horror again! I like it when movie makers try to experiment with different genres and succeed in blending them into one piece! Sadly I have to report that the Pang brothers have failed in their attempt! It could have worked if they put more pressure and tension on the main character in order to get more suspense! And that way I could have overlooked the flaws! But the suspense is missing! There are some moments that are creepy and scary! Only there are not enough of them! There are 2 twists! One i liked and provided serious thought on the subject! The second twist at the end doesn't make any sense and is very redundant! The whole alternative worlds idea reminded me of Silent Hill (all the games) but doesn't come close to the excitement and horror from these games!
