Review of Unscripted

Unscripted (2005)
Awful.
8 February 2005
Outright awful. A failed attempt at reality with real wannabe actors. Lets make this clear. This isn't reality show as it depicts. Not close. Its not a documentary, nor anything that will catch your interest.

When you watch this show you are going to see a number of staged events. Naturally, since its not a reality show. But the staged events are too obvious, the acting is bad, and overall its just plain boring. Movies are good. Behind the scenes are good. Casting, not good. Wannabe actors not good.

Back to the staged events. Your going to realize instantly that this is not a reality show when you see the wannabe actors start thinking out loud. Reality shows add speech to images, but it does so in a way set around a situation that makes it believable. Unscripted adds it to narrate and give you the thoughts of the wannabe actors because the wannabe actors aren't good enough to demonstrate their emotions in their acting. Want an example? See the futile efforts of one of the actors trying to play off their acting ability by portraying a stuttering character in a restaurant. Unknowingly, the waitress at the restaurant used to date him. Hmm. Coincidence? Sorry, too obvious. And these circumstances are too common with Unscripted.

Hey, Hollywood is popular. Hollywood movies are popular. Even behind the scenes are popular as I mentioned before. Unfortunately, unless your an established actor or a Hollywood star and can see the inside jokes or experiences that Unscripted is talking about, your just not going to find this entertaining.
