Unverified (2022)
2/10
Budget paint drying slowly
12 September 2022
The thing which kills Unverified before it can even really get going is not the lack of budget, or even the quality of the actors, but the pacing.

The film, which we will be generous enough to refer it to as, opens with a long spell of a realtor driving to a house. But wait! There is a gate in the driveway. We see her get out of her car, open the gate. Get back in her car and drive through the gate. Get out of her car again close the gate. Drive on. This is not how cinematic narrative is supposed to be (unless Someone was being paid by the minute to produce this, in which case, fine lol).

And this is pretty typical of the pacing of the whole film. It's not so much amateurish, because amateur can infer some level of enthusiasm, as just not really watchable.

I very rarely rate anything below 3 but I must put this in that category as a warning to anybody against making the mistake of watching it for an evening of entertainment.
