![]() ![]() The verb to stream refers to the process of delivering or obtaining media in this manner. This isn’t necessarily a bad movie, it’s just completely forgettable and there isn’t really anything specific that I can point to as recommendable.Streaming media is multimedia that is constantly received by and presented to an end-user while being delivered by a provider. Whilst there are some interesting ideas and strong visuals, “Meander” is a somewhat apt name as the movie becomes a bit tedious at times. Ultimately, it leads to an unsatisfying ending that rounds off a movie that I’ll probably completely forget about in a few weeks. There are some interesting ideas that are presented, but you are ultimately left disappointed as they are left unresolved, or are half-heartedly completed. Simply having a dead kid isn’t a character trait, and isn’t enough to base your entire character off. Once of the key aspects to all of the movies I mentioned earlier is that they have multi-layered characters that are all developed relatively well in their confined environment, but “Meander” fails to make Lisa a character that you’re deseperate to survive. It’s hard to really invest in Lisa as a character as she isn’t particularly interesting. It’s not necessarily bad, but after a while it just becomes predictable and repetitive. “Meander” is one of the best looking mediocre movies I’ve seen in a long time. Everythings looks sleek and they spare no expense on the gore, which is never a bad thing, but do you know what is? The complete lack of engagement. For a relatively small and low budget movie, they have done a great job in making this look like a major release. So “Meander” is one of those movies that is visually stunning. Along with a storm of fire appearing whenever the countdown finishes, the threat of Adam makes getting out less likely. She eventually runs into Adam, who seems to have been trapped for some time and has started to go crazy. Having no choice but to go forward, Lisa moves through tunnels that constantly change shape, all before running into a body. After a few minutes, a door suddenly snaps open, but when she crawls in, it slams shut behind her. ![]() After successfully knocking Lisa out, she wakes up in a mysterious and tiny room with a device around her wrist, counting down the time. Lisa (Weiss) is in America, miles from her native France, when he is picked up by Adam (Franzen), but a radio report quickly reveals his true identity. There’s just something about these types of movies that I just enjoy.īecause of this, “Meander” has been on my “to watch” list for quite a while, but when looking for my next film to review, it was right there waiting for me. It’s one of those movies which are set in a single, confined location, with some fine examples being the awesome “Cube”, the surprisingly decent “ Hidden” (I say surprising because it has Andrea Riseborough in it) and the tense thriller “ Exam“. The gap has been a combination of several factors, mainly because of a new job and spending a lot of time in the cinema as I aimed for 100 new movies seen on the big screen, ready for the end of year countdown, something I’ve achieved for the fifth year in six (the exception being last year, in which cinemas were only open for around five months in my native UK).Īnyway, for the latest review I’ve decided to go with a movie I’ve heard some good things about, “Meander”. So after yet another unexpected gap, I figured it’s time to do another review. ![]()
