    A Dead Loss

    I don't usually submit reviews for films but in this case I wanted to make an exception - save your money. This title only got on to my selection list by some kind of mistake but - having received it - I thought I'd give it a try. It wasn't worth it.

    The time passes along and the whole thing is competently acted - but you will not care about one single person or one single event in this film. The 'twists' and 'turns' are so predictable that you'll see them coming from a mile-off.

    It's an American's eye view of a 1930's farce updated in the most superficial of ways and without any meaningful insight in to this country nor modern family dynamics. It is shallow, trite and boring.

    Please don't bother.
