There are just no words in the English language to adequately describe how horrendous, worthless, pointless and awful this crapfest of a "movie" really is.
Imagine the worst movie you have ever seen.
This movie is so bad it will make that one seem like the Godfather.
Dreck, drivel, putrid garbage. No plot. Lousy music. Nothing happens. Absolutely NOTHING.
By reading your review and your posts, you must love this film enough to want to purchase it. Here's how:

Kidding aside, you want a film where nothing happens, try watching all of Andy Warhol's eight hour film Empire. I'm afraid your opinion isn't stopping me from wanting to watch Small Town Murder Songs.

I liked it.
Yea it was a straight forward movie, but it is only a little over an hour long. Would rather this then CSI or something
This reads like a child saying she doesn't like whatever - food, clothes, this or that - no actual reason is given at all. Which generally means it has nothing to do with the film, or the food, or the clothes - and everything to do with the self-absorbed expectations of the child.
I'm sure this is a matter of taste, not quality - and maybe those who find the original post above sadly puerile, will enjoy the film.
Certainly I've heard good things. I've also heard it's not for those used to American movies where they're spoon fed everything so they don't have to think. That is, the majority of popular American movies.
I liked it. A lot. It's as much character study as it is murder mystery. The soundtrack was great, as well. Imagine, a murder mystery without gore, car chases or shoot-outs.
That's my new favorite camel.
I just imagined that and also imagined myself skipping the d/l.
shareI was disappointed. There wasn't much mystery about it. Spoon-fed? Kinda like having bible verse text on the screen? I wanted to like it, but there just was nothing remember about it. When Stormare is going around asking folks about the murder they kept repeating the same slow motion routine. I didn't understand the purpose of this other than to get the soundtrack in and drag the film out longer as it was already quite short. I guess it was trying to be a musical in a way?
It's true the viewer doesn't need car chases and shootouts, but this could have easily been a short film and been more powerful. It seemed like the director wanted to get all the local color in of a small Canadian town without really providing a solid cast. It wasn't necessary to be feature length. Kind of going up a steep hill in a riding lawnmower to the climax.
I think Stormare was decent, but they never utilized the small town characteristics enough. And please explain why Rita was hanging out with such a sleezeball!
I'm sorry, but I have to agree that this didn't bring much to the table. I don't ask to be spoon-fed, I'd just like something on my plate!
It was pathetic. Too bad it didn't last 3 hours. I would have like to see the ones who liked it suffer through it for so long.
shareYep, biggest load of *beep* I've seen in a while; ridiculously outta place music, half developed plot, half developed characters, absolutely nothing explained and the most obvious finale EVER.
