“Decent little script, perfectly okay performances. The camera work… what on earth happened? There are scenes where it appears they couldnu0026#39;t decide whether to use a stationary camera or go handheld, so they decided to just shake the camera randomly. Itu0026#39;s nausea inducing and has no artistic or symbolic purpose.”
