Review of Audition

Audition (1999)
6/10
Overrated, incomprehensible but still decent.

Warning: Spoilers
I admit it, I got all caught up in the hype of this movie and was let down. It's not a "Bad" movie, just not what I thought. It's not gory or scary at all, contrary to what's been said. Some parts can be said to be "disturbing", such as the female villain throwing up in a bowl and feeding it to her victim, but nothing that should shock most. This movie had all the pieces to make a better flick, but did not put them together thoroughly enough. Some things were not explained thoroughly enough, as to most of the reasons why anyone did what they did, leaving waaay to much open to interpretation, which is what I suspect is what the director wanted.
