together It is the type of movie that I always want to get radar: a non -IP movie with a strong hook from a hypothesis that has some decent money behind it. The couple begins to integrate together into one fat entity? Register me! This type of surreal body horror idea will always make me.

However, there is a widespread idea that I suffer a lot with horror films recently and together He fell in this category: “This will work better as a short film or an episode of selections.” Now, given some of the surrounding controversy together A legal issue involves allegations of plagiarism from a short movie, this thought is a cloud that darkens for this particular film. However, I do not have a movie or a short review. I have a full -length story.

And as much as it goes together? Let’s see whether we can surpass these contradictory ideas to something separate.

A clear story (if it is simplified)

together It is writing the feature and directed for the first time by director Michael Shanks. As such, I want to give him a lot of stagnation as a writer. The script for together It is not bad in any way. Instead, it is often the simple and indulge paths that do not leave a lot of imagination. It is recognized that Shanks as a more brilliant director in the darkening of everything from the special absurdity that comes along with an idea like this.

As is the case, together It does not provide a lot of amazement that exceeds the shock of the selling point. Events play at a decent pace and the rhythm of everything strong, but to some extent it begins to come out as a mechanic coldly by the time when the final action is a real chaos. Because the idea is like the idea, the final Big Beats of the story does not take risks to unexpected heights. It is like watching the wind game runs in a dominant way as it knows that it will fall from the edge. It does not cross the course of a creative obstacle or will surprise you in the living room with the hidden Jetpack. I set that game up to drop the edge along a straight path. This is a story together.

Strong terror, comedy imbalance

As I mentioned, Michael Shanks is impressive with the horror side together. There is some nightmare sequence with a knockout that I will not forget anytime soon, and at any time the movie wants to go to the throat, it succeeds. The issue comes with these attempts at the comedy. Dave Franco and Alison Berri They are floors comic talents, so it makes sense that I do not blame them for not being able to sell humor from the page. Outside one snapshot, its concept alone is funny and inevitable, I do not think that the scenario or filmmaking is the appropriate wave of comedy. Attempts are present and clear – heck, the hypothesis alone is mature of jokes – but nothing outside the shot that laughed at me.

Most of this review will make it look like I hated together. I was not! In fact, I have been made The prominent cinema menu But at the bottom end of the arrangement. This is a strong first feature that shows a real promise of a way out, and perhaps this will revive the twisted viewers who have not been exposed to many stories like this. In my book, this is very good. I wish there was more surprises in the store.
