Portals

source: Portals

Portals lacks direction and flails about for much of its run time until it falls over and ends. The initial plotline has some tantalizing potential but average acting from the movies no name actors and confused directing makes the portals an exercise in wasted time. It could have been an amazing move but never got there.

I've watched hundreds of bad movies. Finally, after 37 years of life, I have watched a movie so absolutely horrible that I felt the need to create an IMDB account to review one. I hope that others like me, those who can happily sit through a bad movie and appreciate it for it's most basic entertainment value, see this review and know to stay away. Don't say you weren't warned.

... Make spooky nonsense happen. Is it aliens? Is it hell? Is there a coherent story? We just don't know. And sometimes heads explode. Overall, it's just kinda dull.

Lots of bad reviews for this one, so I thought I'd give it a go... It is like some weird incoherent dream that has zero meaning and fulfills no expectations... A rambling nonsense but it has plenty of gore. (spoiler) One scene, I thought, is her head going to explode; it did... but there was no apparent reason, maybe the director wanted to show yet more gore. If you like gore movies, this might do the job; doubt it though. As a sci-fi piece it fails big time, leaving one with a sense of, "what was that all about".

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Id rather sit in a hospital waiting room than waste my life watching this again. Only created account to review and say how god aweful this is

I'll give this movie a shot.. and still it's entertaining,. Great concept. Mediocre CGI Camera angle is good But the pace is so slow.. And the script is not good.. I give this rating to encourage the whole team involved in the production of the movie so they can get better making movies...

The acting was mostly pretty good--the child of the couple did best, like she thought she was starring in a real movie, & the electronic space music was good. But the movie didn't deserve either. You would think with 4 directors, at least one segment would've been good. The part of or the whole script for each segment must've gotten lost before they finished reading it, & the directors thought the not-so-special effects would make-up for it, & their poor directing. Nothing went anywhere to explain what was happening, & that "Sarah" segment, the most annoying one, took forever to get to the end. I honestly believe the only requirements the directors had of the (adult) actors was: you must all use the f-word at least once, but fit it in as many times as you can to make up for our missing scripts.

In a word? Boring. Monoliths inexplicably turn up all over the world with inexplicable consequences. That's it really. No one seems to know what's going on. Not the characters. Not the actors. Not the director and certainly not the writers. A genre so bent that NOTHING makes sense and it's all a complete waste of your time.

Im as cross faded AF, but i loved every second. Seroiusly brilliant story development. Many cinimagraphic miment of pure brilliance. I so enjoy the ride. Thank you to the creators of this epic project.
