Joel Schumacher a name behind some terribly fun stuff and too many out of the track movies. While I actually liked his badly reviewed "The Number 23", this new offering from Shumacher is a bore. The plot of the movie is something with high potential though too many movies relying on the similar theme about teen frustrations, drugs et cetera et cetera have been attempted many times before. But what lacked here is the proper narration of the story. The huge problem is it takes too much time to introduce its characters to stabilize the movie and most of these are played by too many lame actors. Also the constant background narration by Kiefer Sutherland has been a bump in the flow of the movie. While in movies like Fight Club, the background narration added thrill and were used in the esthetically, here these narration were actually bumps and slowed down pace of the movie. A creative cinematography and nice editing was also lacking. So, At the end of the movie all slow paced movie with zero intensity.
