Infidelity in Suburbia (2017)
More of an explanation than a review
From the other reviews I was left curious as to what the scene others were objecting to, clearly offensive, but I was too curious. Well the objectionable scene involves a boy holding up a bloody pet collar, reporting that the cat (or dog?) got stuck in a mouse trap, in a very psycho manner.
So, clearly the kid is a psycho.
I didn't watch the rest of the movie besides a quick scan, the cinematography is ok (it's not a zero budget indie flick) but it looks uninspiring.
The Navigator: A Medieval Odyssey (1988)
Don't bother, leave it.
No, don't do this thing, it really is a pretty awful movie. I like almost every time travel movie I have seen including the bad ones and I am a New Zealander but this movie is one confusing arts letdown of a movie, I didn't like the movie one bit but it still would have better if the ending had not been so bad.
I agree with the view that the others must have been taking drugs to enhance this movie, either that or they will be happy with anything incomprehensible.
And there isn't any time travel anyway.
Also the movie is B&W for much of it's run. It is shot at night.
Under Suspicion (1991)
Film making trick
Under Suspicion seems OK until the end, that's when they break with a film making (or indeed story telling) tradition and screw with the viewer in order to create a twist.
A twist that you don't see coming, not because there isn't evidence for it, not because it's not obvious, but because of the audiences POV in the film.
While the twist is for this reason unexpected it also loses the audiences trust, they have been lied to and cheated. This also has the effect of making the ending an unhappy one.
Before the ending it's enjoyable enough although we are asked to swallow some rather unlikely things including possibly the closest life and death 'save' in movie history. (not to mention a justice system that seems extremely speedy)
There would also seem to be a plot hole in that an extremely valuable and lucrative piece of evidence (possibly the reason for the crime) is seemingly sacrificed to save someone when no doubt other evidence could have proved effective.
Another hole is Angeline seeing both sides of a building while seeing fine detail far away in the dark.
