hidden be one of the bad movie i have ever see and and i have see battlefield earth . this movie manage to straddle horror and daytime soap and the punchline to the sixth sense and art house and and whatever genre have misconfigured camera with too much white balance . the movie be set in bush track and kid camp and and tree and somewhere in new zealand . people be be chase by something or other people . there be deep conversation . sometimes people start shake and pas out . unfortunately this effect do not extend to the audience and so people have to leave the theater to avoid the movie and which they do and in drove . like a train of lemming person by person get up and leave . sometimes group inertia would apply and people would leave in group . i can not express how many walk out this movie have but i will continue do so anyway represent this movie have be widely report a one of the most unpopular movie ever show in read cinema nz . hidden be full of uncomfortably long and linger shot of people face . this give you time to guess what go on in their mind . certainly the plot or the narrative give you no clue . perhaps theyre wonder why they be give a script that tell them to pretend a if they have finger gun and shoot at each other make peyaow . bullet ricochet noise and a script that tell them to crack joke so bad they would be reject from chippy packet . perhaps theyre wonder how how this movie could possibly get them to where they want to be . there no coherent story tell go on here and each 5 minute story be never build upon . there nothing that make you care for the people . the character be two dimensional and boring ( for example there a fat girl who be tease for be fat and that her character ) . there be hint towards a maori taniwha but no reason give why other than that the character be maori . new zealander might recognise some reference to cave creek and but they would be read in to the storyline rather than be tell it . a lack of budget isn not an excuse for a incoherent story and and movie like the blair witch project have show what small budget can achieve . this movie isn not lack special effect and 35mm film it lack story tell ability . on the positive side the movie do feature a girl with a great heaving bosom who run up and down a track for a while in the movie . there be also a scene where someone run up a tree against gravity . when a movie lack plot and acting and and other appreciable quality you have to take what you can get even if it be rather crass . i love new zealand film . if weta richard taylor say the lavish quote that adorn on all the movie poster then he be either intoxicated or motivate to encourage new zealand film and not to give a fair opinion of the movie . not say negative thing about a new zealand movie have propel this movie ( and possibly spook ) to mainstream and not the movie quality . p . the punchline be that theyre all dead and ghost . i tick the contains spoiler check box so there the spoiler . now you do not have to see the movie . good for you .
