Little Fish, Strange Pond (2009)

Sadly lacking what it was trying to achieve

[1/10 · 17 December 2010]

The overall idea of this particular movie seemed to try to be the verbal sword thrusts of Taritino's Pulp Fiction. The only problem is that the acting is nothing in comparison to the wonders that are created by Jackson and Travolta. Most annoying is the EXTREMELY obvious fake accent. Which though stated as much, is more annoying than it is believable. Then even worse, the banter running between them seems to be something that might be semi understandable, but unfortunately does not really touch on anything intelligent. Then even worse, the whole time the movie pushes that Mr. Jack is an alter ego to Steven, but then through out the movie of course you deal with all the COMPLETE impossibilities that the character creates. Confusion with little to no real plot leads the whole cinematic experience. I watch a lot of movies and this has been one of the most unfortunate experiences I have ever bothered to finish. I truly hope that you chose NOT to watch.
