Review: Live!
A strange breed of trying to merge real life documentary with reality show, but with the obvious fantasy elements it just can’t fuse together. Also on the drama side, they’re trying the same trick (drama inside the drama), and again it doesn’t work. The narrative isn’t something new either, so that leaves just the story. But using only plain logic, the plot is easy to figure out, and the tension doesn’t hold, even though you could call the subject controversial (or maybe just inside this movie ?).
If you go to watch Eva Mendes, she’s a bit over the top, and not really fun to watch. It’s actually the whole movie doing that, and might be funny to watch if it was a comedy, but for a drama, it just doesn’t do the trick.6½.
