Viewing Notes

FF2010 Day Six: film #4 - (thanks to @ReelDistraction) Secret Screening film as Yoshihiro Nishimura’s just completed, world premiere of Hell Driver (2010). Admittedly I was amped when I heard this because the clips I had seen looked great (in only the way Nishimura’s flicks can look great - check out that cool poster art). Unfortunately after 30 minutes into the flick my excitement had devolved to disappointment. This was not going to be a good film. Yet it continued. And continued. And became a real matter of attrition. Who would stick it out to the eventual end?

By the end after a 2 hour runtime I turned out to see that most of the audience had cleared out. Not a good experience and I had a headache from sitting so close to the screen w/a bad viewing angle. Being exhausted didn’t help. I think there is a better film in there if 30 minutes are trimmed but at 2 hours, no, I cannot recommend nor want to see again. boo!
