Review: "Rubber" (2010), written April 1, 2011

So I finally got to see "Rubber" after a long and anxious wait. I thought it would be a movie of average length and have an interesting plot, well I assumed them. However, the movie is a rather unusual one. It is only 1 hour and 18 minutes including credits and its plot is, well...strange. The movie has two plots, which made it a lot less exciting than I had hoped. I just think that if your going to make a movie with a second plot like this one, it should be given to one with less promise than "Rubber". I thought "Rubber" was going to be exciting and clever but I was very disappointed. Yet regardless of my expectations is it a good film? It's ok, artistically it's pretty good but, it's nothing amazing. However there was one thing that was very interesting, the 'special' or 'practical' effects used to make a tire roll. Now if you haven't seen any trailers, that last sentence may have been confusing. That's all I have to say about "Rubber".
