Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
View MoreThis is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
View MoreAll of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
View MoreA film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
View MoreI expected more from this film considering the cast, of course there are few good writers out there, most just copy the same stuff, the bashing Trump thing was in line with how Hollywood has little to offer as well. I feel so many films play the same old theme, creativity has gone old the window. I do not care about politicians or what people think about Presidents - any of them, please give us a story with substance, this is not it again. I would love to see the many actors/actresses with some meat to work with in the story in showcasing their talents. How many times do sequels have to be made, well until Hollywood sees the profits are dropping, unfortunately these films are never ending, at least they run in the middle.
View MoreI see there are a lot of negative reviews for this movie and I honestly don't get why, certainly if you rate it the lowest possible. I won't say it is the best movie ever but to watch once it's certainly decent enough. I was just a bit dissapointed by the end, that's the only part where I expected more. For the rest the movie is entertaining enough to keep you interested. Watching the main character Joseph Burns (played by Joseph Cross) losing his mind after his wife got pregnant, and this while he has issues with his project and with his political views and life in general. It's not like Falling Down where Michael Douglas lost it and became extremely violent nor like Jack Nicholson in The Shining losing it also, but there is definitely a tension, a bad tension. The other movies mentioned became cult movies and are still very good, way better than Tilt, but Tilt is just different and yet the same as a person can't cope with reality anymore. The acting was not bad, the story could have used a bit more violence to me, and a bit more explanation at the end, but it's certainly watchable and doesn't deserve those ridiculous low ratings.
View MoreThere was really no suspense, no shock factor. The ending that was supposed to be the highlight, I said to myself "I guess that's that". Pretty boring as well. The main guy had no charisma, this is more likely because his character was poorly written or thought out. Because his acting is ok. Not bad. but ok. I don't even care about his views as he rambles on about his "philosophy" I dont even know what to call it. But this is no reason for the story to suck.The only reason why I gave this 3 points is because of the execution. The movie doesn't look bad. Some of the scenes that were shot, what was actually good considering that this is not a big budget film.
View MoreThis film about a struggling documentary film maker starts off giving you that warm and creepy feeling a good indie movie creates when you think something entertaining is going to appear just beyond the horizon. The acting is good and the dialogue keeps you engaged so after 30 mins. Of charachter building You figure any minute now thngs should start to unfold. Then after an hour of circling the same issues and events not bringing you any closer to this drain the directors classify as drama/ horror / thriller, you realize the movie gives you no clear or distinct reason of why the main charachter is having these problems or feelings. Being confused watching this movie even ends on that premise never showing the result of his actions leaving you blind to the cosequences. Of course we can all assume what happened but for an hour and 40 minutes of waiting just to see a couple events unfold and then its over dubs this movie as a waste of time. The best thing about this movie were the remarks he made about Donald trump a few times through out but the premise of his mindset and stress from his situation never added up to what it amounts to. So Basically the story line showcases an undeveloped psyche so watchers do not understand the charachters reasoning. Your aim was good but next time throw the dart harder so it can atleast hit the board!
