Review of Rupture

Rupture (I) (2016)
3/10
A movie that can't decide it's genre.
8 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Kidnapping, check; horror, check; torture, check; suspense, check; mystery, check; action, sort-a; monsters, check; aliens, check, sci-fi, check. Anyone notice that there are TOO MANY categories here? As a result, none are fleshed out sufficiently to actually work. So, let's polish it all off with a mid-sentence ending, so popular these days. I only used the fast forward in about every fourth scene because the scenes changed quickly enough to not turn the whole thing off. I kept hoping that the ending would make sitting through the shotgun plot worthwhile. Nope - they just ended it with a little dialog (part two set-up?). BTW: no sex, no nudity, no language. Hello, late night TV.

I disagree with one other reviewer: Noomi Rapace is good; everyone else is a caricature. Michael Chiklis was a walk-on, collect a check, non-character. In fact, he was so badly overdressed for the part, it looked like they snagged him on the way to a night out with his wife.
