keri russell's character ruined the movie
What the hell was the point of this annoying, worthless character? All she did was fill the movie with dimwitted, flimsy, uninteresting, go-nowhere philosophical ponderings. She talked soooooo much without ever actually saying ANYTHING. Terrible character, HORRENDOUS choice to put her in the movie. It's not like she even drove the story forward, if anything she dragged and bogged it down, needlessly interrupting the creepy and interesting scenes involving the actual creeps who make up the plot of the movie. I can't even begin to understand why the writer/director chose to tell the story in such a bizarre and senseless manner, why include this character?
Also, unrelated but still bothersome, flashback scenes being filmed as if they were filmed on some older, super 8 or home camera = IDIOTIC. Had the same problem with American History X filming flashbacks in black and white. Do these directors think viewers will be unable to tell it's a flashback if it's not filmed to look older or at least completely different then the rest of the film? Pretty insulting.
