Shoot the editor


Are we going for a world record with cuts here? Way too many fast cuts, I had to look away many times. Just TOO MUCH! Chopping the hell out of footage is not what makes a good editor.

I'm guessing that this was done to distract from the BS writing and directing.

reply

Agree, it was very distracting. I almost hated when action sequences started because the cut frenzy would start.

reply

Action directors should take a hint from how Steven Soderbergh directed fight sequences in Haywire.

reply

The title sequence gave me a headache already.
But then so did the plot...

I came to the message board just to see if anyone else hated the quick cuts! I'm getting dizzy trying to watch. So distracting.

reply

Agreed. Couldn't watch the action sequences.

reply

Agree. It is cheating really; all the lead has to do is raise his arm and three bad guys are floored.
