Watch Cut For Free

Good concept, poorly executed.

Admirable film.

Blistering performances.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Think of all the worst films you've ever watched. Think of all the thoughtless scripts, awful scores, flat humour, ugly cinematography and cringe-worthy acting you've ever witnessed. Pretty bad eh? Now, you might be ready to watch 'Cut'. A warning to you though, you'll still be disappointed. Unless, of course, you're the enemy of creativity or you're one of those people who hates film (like the team behind this surely do).The basic plot; it's late at night, a group of friends are staying in a remote house in the countryside and they get terrorised by some psychopaths. Admittedly, with a premise like that, you're not going to expect anything groundbreaking, but it's no excuse for this garbage.You don't care what happens to any of the characters. They're hollow, their interactions unbelievable and their actions stupid. If they're so scared why do they constantly put themselves in danger and leave doors unlocked or open? Ahh yes, to let the camera through of course! The acting is like something off a school stage, inexcusable.Talking of school plays, the script sounds like it could've been written by a gormless Year 11 pupil and his mates, with its forced attempts at humour and its facile, unconvincing conversational parts. It reeks of a lack of observation.The sound isn't any better. Much of the dialogue is drowned out by the brainless score and the daft attempts to 'scare' the audience with loud crashes when lights go on or off are, laughably, ridiculous.The 'one take' gimmick fails as miserably as everything else. It's boring. It doesn't deliver on the claustrophobic thrill ride that it was supposed to, quite the opposite in fact. The camera bumbles around the house, doors are left self-consciously open, the journey up and down the stairway becomes painful, supported by the shots of the clock that let us, the stupid audience, know that they really are doing it in one take! The second marketing gimmick, Danielle Lloyd, appears in the first 5 sickening minutes of the film and on the cover, 'nuff said. She's diabolical, but at least she sets the scene for next hour perfectly.Apparently this film isn't a joke. Hard to believe I know! You might be forgiven in thinking that it's all a bit tongue in cheek, maybe even a misguided attempt at satire, until you watch the DVD extras that is. This is where you'll be left in no doubt about its seriousness. They seem to be under the impression that they've created something worthwhile, something important and that they've served up some fresh new talent for us and for British cinema along the way.Watch them if you can stand it, but pass me a bucket.

STAR RATING: ***** Saturday Night **** Friday Night *** Friday Morning ** Sunday Night * Monday Morning Cut is trying to ride on the publicity of being the first Brit horror flick to be shot in one continuous take, the impression being of trying to create a 'real time' feel to it. It sort of works in this sense, but in terms of making it 'work', it's a miserable failure.This is just an amateurish and embarrassing effort from beginning to end, with no redeeming qualities to speak of. Cheap looking, not scary, not funny, poorly written, badly acted and over faster than sex. And, of course, infamous glamour girl Danielle Lloyd has her sexy image plastered on the front cover to lure you in, despite being in it for less than five minutes at the beginning. She shouldn't expect her 'acting' career to go very far on the basis of this. *

This is a film bound to slice opinion, when you consider that apart from the opening 'film within a film' segment, the whole of CUT was filmed in one take!!! I didn't know this when I bought the film, I just figured it looked pretty cool, in fact it wasn't until a few minutes into the film that I noticed what was happening and I couldn't believe it. This is brave film making when you consider all the tried and tested horror film camera language they are sacrificing by shooting this way and in my opinion on the whole they pull it off. It's even got a few shocks! The plot doesn't smash any boundaries but hardly the point here. The actors all do extremely great jobs, with all round strong performances.Directors/Writers trying something different and having the bottle to go against the grain should always be applauded. Cut is to be both applauded and enjoyed, an excellent viewing experience. I very much recommend this to any and all genuine film fans out there.

Awful.... are you kidding. I am ashamed that I have to give this piece of sick crap 1 out of 10 it doesn't even deserve 1 out of 1000. Please don't even think about seeing its trailer . I can say one thing that the person who directed this movie must be traveling by locals.The movie is about some people please excuse me for calling them that are asked to run haywire running inside a shanty house as some clowns (perhaps the director and producers) are there to kill them, it is also about trying to close and open doors. Height is when one of the friend first check if the door is closed and then in the next moment opens it to allow the clown faced creature if you can call it to enter .This is just one example of how bad the script is unfortunately for the viewer the movie is also directed by the same person. The good thing about the movie is that you don't have to worry to understand the dialogues or for that matter what is going on in the movie. I must congratulate the actor for having the courage to work in this movie I feel sorry for them. But wait if you are thick skinned like me then the torture is not yet over for you the last 15 mins is going to rip you off , trust me IMDb censor those words which I want to use here to let you know about the climax of the movie. Last but not the least I request the industry to cut people associated with this movie else ....
