Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
... View MoreJust so...so bad
... View MoreIt's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
... View MoreA terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
... View MoreThe pendulum swung right off the watchable chart. It is not that it was that awful but there was more nudity than necessary, and it finished with a questionable ending showing once again that Hollywood has forgotten what makes a good movie.Also, once again, the Christian faith has been assaulted by the leftists in Hollywood. A woman, wearing a cross very visibly around her neck, is requested to do unsavory acts on a man. Why have a cross if not to insult the Christians that Hollywood seems to hate? Why not the Star of David? Why not a Muslim crescent symbol? Because Hollywood is anti-Christian, and every chance the leftists have a chance, they will denigrate Christians.
... View MoreThere is very little good to say about this movie and I will not try to. Lots of bad camera-work, bad acting, bad script, and bad ideas all combine to make this into a truly awful flick.I'm not sure who said that masses of ankle-shots were a good idea, and unless there are a group of sock-fetishists out there who have a penchant for bad lighting and jumpy camera work, this movie has NO validation whatsoever.In a Just world, the makers of this garbage would be prosecuted under the Trade Descriptions Act for calling this a "Movie", and I really feel that my time would have been better spent in a coma.Apparently there was a plot to this, but it was completely unfathomable, so good luck finding it.
... View MorePendulum is my favorite Rachel Hunter film. It is stylish and suspenseful, and kept me guessing all the way through the first time I saw it. Rachel Hunter seems to really find herself in her role as a troubled but determined detective, working a homicide that produces many twists and surprises. She brings a dark, brooding quality to her role that binds the rather wandering plot. Things got a little slow once in a while, but Rachel's style and charisma kept me interested. This is really an unpretentious but effective cop mystery with an intriguing cast of characters to enjoy. I think any fan of the genre, or Rachel Hunter will thoroughly enjoy this film. I see no need to reveal any of the plot at all. I recommend you just sit back and let it all develop for you.
... View MorePendulum is a murder mystery, or rather two murder mysteries. Rachel Hunter plays a detective originally assigned to investigate the brutal murders of several street prostitutes, then reassigned to investigate the murder of a prominent law school professor.Hunter's character is not exactly "Colombo," and there are several red herrings along the way. The film is set in a milieu of prostitution, lies, kinky sex, corruption, violence, etc., which is why I consider it a "film noir."This movie isn't a classic, but it keeps you interested. If you enjoyed "Presumed Innocent" you'll enjoy this one.
