Review of Neon Lights

Neon Lights (I) (2022)
3/10
This is bad
23 September 2023
I am not sure what was the purpose of the is movie. The story setup is intriguing, but everything else just falls apart.

Time: It is hard to tell if you are in the present, past or in someone's head. While part of this is intentional to blur the lines of reality, as a viewer if I do not know what is going on, I cannot become invested in the story.

Several of the characters are so over-the-top stereotypical I half expected Mickey Rooney to add buck teeth and pretend to be Chinese(older people will know the reference). The nerd has to be the ccomplete nerd, the bully a-hole pretty much made the movie unwatchable with his 'a-holeness'. Each person is playing such a caricature of another character that you have no one that you care about.

Overall very confusing with no payoff.
