The Guilty (2021)
Bad
The movie fails in so many ways. First of all, it seems the main character isn't believable as a 911 operator. He feels no urgency to help people, and he acts as if he's talking to his buddy. Terrible portrayal of a dispatcher. Further, he acts like a lunatic and is obviously unstable; very unlikable character.
Another thing is the story itself is not convincing. I'll avoid spoilers but there are many things that make no sense at all.
Maybe I could forgive all that if the movie was gripping, but no. It's long and slow. With a completely irrelevant twist at the end.
Dark (2017)
Cut The Episodes in Half and The Show Would Be Great
Dark has its interesting and suspenseful moment. The trouble is all of the episodes are littered with filler scenes. 10 seconds here of someone's face, 20 seconds there of someone thinking. If it cut out all the useless scenes, it would have been a great show. But as it is, I can only watch it at x2 speed. Otherwise, I'll be bored out of my mind. The whole series could have been halved and still shown all the essential scenes.
Xenia (2014)
Drawn-out and Boring
This movie isn't good. The acting is laughably bad, especially by the main character. The runtime could have been cut in half, and the movie would likely have been better. Also, there are a couple of unnecessary cringy dance scenes (you'll know it when you see it). The whole bunny-related trope's meaning isn't really explained and it just leaves viewers confused. Further, there's a gun-related scene that makes very little sense (I won't mention specifics in order to avoid spoilers). In a nutshell, it fails to engage viewers, it has bad acting, and it's unnecessarily drawn-out.
