Surveillance

This was a movie that had potential to be a good movie. It has big actors in it although a bit past their prime. The movie was produced by David Lynch and directed by his daughter Jennifer Lynch.

I think it is a gamble when you watch David Lynch movies. You either hate them or like them. You either get them or you don't. I think the preview looked pretty interesting.

This movie doesn't make the cut. It is cohesive and even coherent, but I think there needs to be a more specific reason why they kill other than they are psychopathic. In the end, I don't really feel satisfied with what I watched nor entertained. Save your popcorn for another movie.






Netflix Summary:
