Movie reviews by Sean McBride, “The Movie Guy,” are published each week by Orange Newsmedia and seen weekly on KFDM and Fox4.We booked a Junior Suite at Hideaway of Nungwi resort hotel through stayed 4 nights in room 107 at the end of August. There is a kernel of an interesting idea here, but it’s quickly forgotten in this frustrating thriller that aims high, but then falls flat on its face in the execution. ![]() This is a movie that wants to be a low-budget knockoff of “Inception,” but it doesn’t have the budget for the production values or the writing talent to create a cohesive story. The screenwriting is very hit-and-miss, and it’s filled with so many plot holes that it becomes impossible to enjoy the ride. It’s a nice moment in an otherwise forgettable film. There are some nice moments of suspense, including one scene where the detective is trying to resist the hypnotic command to kill somebody, and finding that his body seems to have developed a mind of its own. The rest of the cast is completely forgettable. I do think Affleck is pretty good in the leading role, although he’s not asked to do much more than glower and flash his cheekbones at the camera.Ĭo-star Alice Braga also has some nice moments, and bad guy William Fichtner is as inscrutable as ever, which almost works in this particular instance. I didn’t buy the stakes for these characters, and so I stopped caring about whether the detective would find his daughter or not. What’s worse, this new setting allows the characters to behave without any real consequences. That is a set up that should pique anyone’s interest, but that intrigue is lost when the story pivots into some science-fantasy mumbo jumbo that tries to create a world driven by kooky conspiracies and all-powerful bad guys. Is this magical bad guy somehow behind his daughter’s abduction? This is more than just a standard bank heist as he has the supernatural ability to make people do whatever he wants by simply whispering suggestions into their ears.ĭespite all of this, our detective hero is able to get to the safe deposit box first, but when he opens it, he finds that all it contains is a picture of his missing daughter. We learn that a mystery man (William Fichtner) has targeted a safe deposit box. He’s trying to piece his life back together when he’s called in for a stakeout at a bank. The story, the parts that I can reveal without giving away any spoilers, follows a detective (Affleck) who is traumatized by the unsolved kidnapping of his young daughter. Just when you think “Hypnotic” is going to start being something interesting, the cinematic house of cards collapses, leaving little other than the disappointing rubble of a mediocre thriller. ![]()
