A Cure for Wellness (2016)
great idea, flawed execution
I'd like to say I just watched a masterpiece, hell even a great movie, but unfortunaly there's just too many mistakes for me to say that, the movie is barely good, the idea is amazing, but the execution is sloppy, it's like that one great idea we all have but can't quite execute, we have it all in our heads.
now I'll go in SPOILERS.
too many strange mistakes like: how did he get free from the dentist chair when he had 2 men holding him, restrained and with a goddamn drill to his teeth? if you ever did dental work without anesthesia you know how it is: it's HELL. how could he formulate any kind of cohesive thought in that situation? let alone escape?
the movie's also not very logical, OK, people don't really feel like living so that's why they stay there? or was it all mind control? if they do employ mind control then how? characters also act plain creepy, you know what I mean.
I was expecting some kind of big reveal or twist and we do get it, the problem is that it's obvious to the point where I asked "that's it?" also the last scene is kinda nonsense, he smiles creeply like he's an evil genius or something, I could articulate this review more but that's how much I care now that its over, the movie could EASILY have been 1 hour and 30 mins, instead sometimes it feels like a drag.
would I recommend this movie? it's a mixed bag and it's not for everyone, but if you have nothing better to do then go ahead.
