Watch The Desert For Free

So much average

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The opening title sequence looks as though it was edited with a stapler and scissors, as we watch motorcycle guy driving somewhere, as barely legible red titles, seemingly swaying in the breeze, appear against a black background. The motorcycle, and imitation Whole Lotta Love-clone song, abruptly starts and stops whenever the titles appeared. Motorcycle guy arrives at a bar, fights, drinks, and is nearly run over by a car, in one of the most poorly edited (yet unintentionally funny) scenes I've seen in quite a while. It really looks like a moustachioed guy gets into a red car, but changes into a dark haired girl in a blue car, straight from a demolition derby, who tries to run down motorcycle guy.When the soundtrack isn't ripping off Led Zeppelin, Eye Of The Tiger is played repeatedly throughout the opening moments, leading me to wonder if this is supposed to be a *feel good* movie, or did the filmmakers just really enjoy those particular tunes?Plot is a largely incomprehensible affair, with motorcycle guy kicking massive amounts of ass (for some reason), on land, and later, aboard a ship. His enemies eventually get the better of him, and tie him to a broken piece of wood, and throw him overboard. Then, 67 minutes into this barely 76 minutes-long movie, an incredibly poor model shark is briefly glimpsed, motorcycle guy stabs him repeatedly with a shard of wood, and 69 minutes into this movie, the shark sinks into the ocean, and dies.This movie is, in some territories, advertised as being a shark flick, even being bootlegged under the title, Turkish Jaws, and allegedly existing in Turkmenistan as Zombi 64: The Death Shark Massacre, because of that poorly done, two minutes-long scene, in which the shark kills no one. So much for it being a " massacre ", and the only * death * involved is its own.This does have some good action scenes, but some are drawn out to the point of absurdity, while the very attractive brunette shows off her body at every opportunity, but the film gets tiresome after the first 30 minutes. The fact that it apparently is available only in an unsubtitled Turkish doesn't help, either.
