Wreck

source: Wreck

Dont be dissuaded by the low scores, this film is absolutely smashing. The gormless but gutsy heroine stumbles her way through a script so thin Stevie Wonder could see through it at night. The nonsense, sorry, action starts when she gets her foot trapped under a car after crashing in the woods and fixates on moving the car rather than digging away the soft ground around her foot,, but that's nothing, nothing compared to what follows. The Grandfather of all Crap Creatures is stalking her, a creature so biblically crap I'd bet even it doesn't know what its meant to be, at a guess I'd say Oscar the Grouch after a week long session on the Buckfast. There's a shower of truly rubbish baddies chasing after the mysterious briefcase handcuffed to her wrist for reasons never explained or even hinted at, there's even a token random rambler with a beard and wooly hat who finds her, lamps her with a tree branch and tries to steal the case, only to be set upon by Oscar the Were-Whatever!!, and throughout all of this everyone keeps a straight face. This film has been made with a tongue the size of Godzillas slippers firmly in it's cheek and should be applauded. I imagine the crew had a blast making this film and I for one appreciate the effort. I would have marked it higher but trust me it's not for everyone, if you don't have a sense of humour you'll hate it.
