The Mooring (2012) Reviews
Really?
OK, I'll keep it short. The good? + The teenagers were actually teenagers. Unlike other films where the teenagers are played by twenty- or thirty-somethings, this actually used teenage-looking girls. + Variety. The girls were believable as a mixed group of teenagers, with none being too pretty or perfect looking The bad? + The plot could have been decent, but turns out pretty thin + One survivor - really? + The ending? eh. + The setting - cliché.
Summary: A gaggle of girls go into the forest and meet a psycho intent on killing them. Gaggle clucks movie sucks.
Apparently IMDb requires me to create a really long review. No real character development going in this flick. I could end it there but rules are rules. The movie starts out giving us some nice cinematography. For some reason the gaggle gets on a house boat. Probably someone needed to take a tax deduction on a houseboat and someone else wanted to see their boat in the movies. Not much character development going on here. We could have seen the girls starting out to be in conflict with each other and coming together to defeat the psycho and using their smarts (sans technology) but "nooooooo!" The term "narrative excess" is defined in this film. I really tried to watch this film but I couldn't. I stopped, tried again,stopped tried again, fast forwarded the film, and tried again to no avail. The cinematography was good but it could not save this film.
Recommended for Movie Lovers...
I saw a film that looked great, shot on a micro-budget with no name actors that all delivered superb performances. Thomas Wilson Brown (Honey, I Shrunk the Kids) makes his long awaited return to film and delivers a chilling performance that is fabulously creepy!! Those that seek heavy blood and gore, you'll have to look elsewhere as Glenn Withrow opted to shoot more Hitchcock style with the violence than Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive). Now there wasn't a true protagonist, which would have been preferred, since most of us need a hero to pull for, but this was written by a first time writer while in high school. For this first attempt, I have to applaud this young lady. The performances and visuals keep this film interesting and a must see for movie lovers. Bravo...
An okay movie to watch on a boring night or day.....
This movie wasn't the best movie, but it wasn't horrible either. I enjoyed it enough to continue watching it until the end, so what does that say? I thought that I read somewhere "First time director" and a girl out of high school writer; so with that in mind the movie surpassed what that could have spewed onto a movie film! Bottom line is this: If you're looking for a out of your seat thriller with blood and guts splattered all over the screen; not for you. If you want to watch a movie and you're having trouble finding one: Watch it! It is a pretty good movie just not the best, that's all. *****Maybe a Spoiler Ahead*********** That lady (you'll know which one) has the yellowest teeth I've ever seen on a movie yet. Like she took the tar from the cigarette's and brushed her teeth with it...... Just had to get that out, lol...... Good Luck!!!
Could have been better
This is your basic "killer chasing girls in the woods" type movie. We've all seen this style of movie before, where you're rooting for the girls to escape the psycho hunter while he picks them off one by one. But the difference about this movie is I felt confused the whole time, especially at the end. I think because it lacked a lot of dialogue, which was wasted on getting to know the teenage girls. We never really understood why the killing couple came after the girls in the first place. With their first kill in the film, it was clear that it was sadistic and that they were doing it for their own pleasure. But then it gets complicated towards the end, with the couple leaving me wondering, "What was that all about?" This movie had potential, but then got confusing when the story would focus on the killer's personality. I still made it all the way through, but honestly, by the end of the film I felt like I didn't really care one way or the other. Please like me on Facebook!
