Review of Unspeakable

Unspeakable (2002)
4/10
When lacking a point, move from set piece to set piece quickly
26 July 2004
It is always nice when a movie has a point. I hook to hang your hat one. But when it doesn't, the director should take a cue from the Italians and move from set piece to set piece with the greatest of speed.

The pluses: Lance Henriksen, Dennis Hopper, blood, gore, violence.

The minuses: lazy story telling, unengaging characters, too much "story" between the violent gory scenes.

If you like Dennis and Lance and gore and violence, it's worth seeing if you can FF to the good parts.

Otherwise you are wasting your time.

One tip to the writer: You don't need "story" if you're not going to have character development. It's like icing with no cake.
