Review of Zoom

Zoom (2015)
4/10
Unique, but highly disappointing
20 March 2017
Warning: Spoilers
The main idea is great: a story telling a story which is telling the first story. But the stories are crap when you look at them one at a time; one is about sex and boobs, the second about sex and a penis, and the third has the least sex, but the most convoluted plot (which actually makes sense in context).

The acting, cinematography, and the art style of the drawn sections were good, but not enough to overcome the fact it feels like a porno trying to disguise itself as art. I kept watching hoping for improvement; I should have watched something else entirely.

I recommend Stranger Than Fiction (2006) or The NeverEnding Story (1984).

Inkheart (2008) and Pixels (2015) are more rewatchable than Zoom.
