Review of Shell

Shell (I) (2012)
3/10
Disappointing
26 August 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Here is a perfect example of a movie that should never have got funding. We have a great, isolated, bleak landscape. A father and daughter deserted by a mother and wife. However we are given nothing to work with. No social or familial links explained. No feelings or thoughts ever discussed. All we get is silence, into which, I presume, we are expected to project our our own ideas. Why was Shell taken out of school? What's the relevance of the book 'The Heart is a Lonely Hunter' left behind by a client? Then Dad and her start kissing and Dad starts to think she is his wife? Then he ups and kills himself. Honestly...a real pile of crap.
