MORE REVIEWS AT booksequalhappiness.blogspot.comREVIEW: This movie really didn't make much sense to me. I don't know what's the purpose of it. Ansel Elgort and Chloe Moretz are both amazing actors and the only reason why I watched this movie was because of them. The plot wasn't anything new. I didn't care much for the characters because we knew nothing about them. We were just led to believe by Addison that Kevin wouldn't do anything like that. I think at some parts Addison made stupid and rash decisions that could have almost gotten him killed. I felt like I wasted my time after watching it.SHOULD YOU WATCH IT: If you don't want to waste your time, no. WOULD I WATCH IT AGAIN: Definitely not.

Surely I can't be the only person who sees the huge plot hole in the ending of this movie?Spoiler:Why would you send someone investigating he death of someone you ordered to be killed to the person you had do the killing?

Ansel Elgort has been an actor that could almost do no wrong over the past few years where as Chloe Moretz was a talent who is slowly fading into the abyss.I wanted to like this movie and gave it every chance to succeed however it is just painfully boring and nearly unwatchable. Ansel's mum died and then his friend is gunned down in a coffee shop. Ansel then goes on an endless search to try and find the person who killed his friend.Ansel and Chloe's friendship is never really explained and then for some bizarre reason they become F buddies. There sex scenes are full on cringe and there is absolutely no chemistry between them whatsoever. It's odd too because they had such great chemistry in 2013's Carrie.Both Ansel and Chloe have over the top irritating parents who's roles serve no other purpose than to annoy the viewer. Finally there is no action, no suspense, no drama just two imbeciles wandering around trying to solve a murder. The dialogue is comically bad at times. Garbage.

November Criminals has been advertised as though it's a movie, but there is no way in which it really is one. For a start, there's the sheer brevity of it. Take away the opening and closing credits, and this thing is 74 minutes long. That isn't a movie, it's an extended short film. It does make up for that by feeling as though it lasts for hours. In those 74 minutes, the following actual things happen: Boy and girl have sex, in gauzy Mills-and-Boon-o-vision. Boy's friend is killed, off-screen. Boy investigates friend's death, a bit. He confronts another character, who just flat-out tells him who the killer is. He confronts the killer, a character we haven't seen until the final 10 minutes. He gets shot, but very slightly and he's quite all right really.That's it. All told, that amounts to about 10 minutes of things actually happening. The rest of it amounts to more bland filler than my grandma's meatloaf, with l-o-o-o-o-n-g scenes of people driving, people walking, and people having anguished conversations that go nowhere and illuminate nothing. We even get the full 3 minutes of David Bowie's 'Life On Mars' at one point. It's a good song, but those three minutes, like most of this stuff, could have been cut out very easily.The two lead actors give frankly baffling performances. Chloe Moretz is trying, at least, but her character has nothing to say and even less to do. Why she agreed to be in this is something of a mystery. As for Ansel Elgort, he gives a thoroughly charisma-free turn which is so different from his captivating, fluid performance in this year's Baby Driver that I seriously wondered if it was the same actor. There are scenes here where he stumbles around as though he's forgotten how to walk.In short (and it's worth saying again, this really was very short) there's nothing here worth anyone's time. I don't know why this thing exists. I'm pretty sure the people who made it don't know why it exists, either.
