Review of Empty

Empty (I) (2011)
3/10
Great concept, terrible script, acting, and production
19 August 2011
Warning: Spoilers
The concept behind this movie was really good, but the script and acting ruined it. This "couple" (who look like they're around 23-24 years old) act like they are 15 year old freshman in highschool -- the constant lame arguing and bickering about crap that has nothing to do with the concept of the movie was even worse then the two actors trying to make it believable.

The production was horrid as well -- it looks like this was filmed and produced on a flip camera and using windows movie maker. I like indie flicks, but come on now...invest in a decent camera \ post production editing facility! I also didn't understand some of the scenes...like the guy with the car in the road...what was that all about? There's no gas, so he's going to all of a sudden turn into a kidnapper \ rapist? Seriously? How does that help him get food \ gas? If anything, it will create another kid who needs more food and more gas (lol).

And the fight scene between him and the boyfriend was so bad -- I've seen better fight scenes and acting in soap operas.

I didn't get the ending either...the boyfriend would rather starve to death than take help from the girlfriend's father -- so he starts shooting innocent people? And why the F--- didn't he use the gun before when the two a*holes broke into their house and stole their food and supplies? It just doesn't make sense.

Last but not least -- some sex scenes at least would have given this 3 stars.
