the new twenty be one of the bad film i have ever see . yes and some may argue that formulaic small budget film that strive for less may seem bad and but i would argue that a pseudo intellectual anti formulaic indie film that pretend to be more be bad . the new twenty be write and direct by chris mason johnson and and i will never get back the 91 minute of my life that i waste on his film . the screenplay and charactersfrom begin to end and the screenplay fail to provide an anti hero or hero with a moral core that the audience would want to see succeed or fail . in story telling and the three dramatic conflict be man vs. man and man vs. the world and and man vs. himself . the screenplay focus on a group of college friend in new york and and be preoccupy with the dynamic of man vs. himself and where each of the film character be so self absorb in a stupor of depression and self destructive behavior that the movie atrophy before the audience very eyes . each of the main character indulge in unexplained bad behavior ( heroin addiction with no history a to why the character be an addict while a fiancée who have sex with her fiancée bos or investor and even though the character be write too smart to have sex with such a sleazy character while a man who begin a a decent guy and but be attract to a foul mouth investor and and convert for some unknown reason into a similar foul mouth business jackass while a closeted chubby gay cyber geek and who do nothing and but find date online while and a gay asian man who date an hiv positive old man and but have no scene establish why the relationship work and why love develops ) . crucial scene establish the cause of the character addiction and the suffering and self loathing of the fiancée that might explain why she would sleep with a sleaze bag while the back story that would explain why a decent guy would be attract to a gordon gecko type character and become a jackass while a story line for the chubby cyber geek while and more scene of interaction between the asian man and hiv positive boyfriend be all miss . without proper establish detail and all of the character action seem force and contrive . direction and cinematography and scorei find mr. johnson direction to be without a clear point of view and leave the actor emotionally incoherent . the cinematography can be describe a mundane at best . mr. johnson select small space to shoot and fail to catch the grandeur of new york city . this failure create a claustrophobic film and that view like the filming of a stage play and and not a film . the score be embarrassingly absent from most of the film . i assume that mr. johnson be to blame and since he could have ask for full score to enhance understanding in each shot . conclusionthe new twenty be an annoying and unmitigated failure in film making .
