Here we go with another writer/director movie. You know that doesn't bode well.It's essentially a movie of a first-person shoot 'em up. Many reviews complain of the shaky camera work, others defend it.The problem is, it's not true to life (as true to life as any camera shot can be), Quick proof. Nod your head. Do you look up then down as you nod? No, your eyes stay fixed in front of you, only your head moves.Of course, that's not simple to portray from a first person viewpoint but that's the director's problem, not the viewer's but is IS made the viewer's problem, because the shaky action is shaky camera action. When you're running around, your viewpoint changes rapidly but it's not disorientating as it is in the movie.Anyway...It's a nice idea very, very, very, very - sorry, sometimes there's just no other way to create emphasis than to repeat a word several times - very, very, very, badly executed. A few minutes of this would be fine but a whole just doesn't work.The thing is, the plot as such would work just as well if told in normal cinematic terms (i.e. third or omni person viewpoint) so it's merely a gimmick and detracts from rather than adds to the movie.Interestingly, the highest IMDB rating came from the under 18s. So maybe as you get older you get more experience and become more discerning.You can't help but think the writer/director si trying to say what a clever writer/director I am rather than trying to tell a good story and make a good movie. Such is often the way with writer/directors.So, if it's on TV sometime, give it a try, you can always switch off or fast forward. If you're under 18 you may even like it...PS: This is not to suggest that under 18s have no discernment, of course they have. And if they love the movie - great! But as you get older and have more experiences with which to compare and contrast with other experiences, it's likely that your viewpoint will shift. You may still love the movie. On the other hand, you may see it for the gimmick it is. But in any event, your call...

First, these scam artists took money from thousands of people to finish this film with the promise of delivering it to us. They NEVER did. I finally caught the film on cable and wow did it truly suck. Beyond the 1st person technique which they didn't manage to pull off, despite having done it in their music video, they clearly have no idea how develop characters or any real plot. DON'T SEE THIS FILM!!!
