A pretentious piece of…

Rating: 3/10


Die starts off good, with a reasonably good dialogue that does a nice
job of keeping you interested in the story as it develops. It also has
a nice concept; a person's fate determined by the role of a dice… but
why putting this in the oh-so-familiar Saw-esque/Cube-esque setting,
that's been recycled a billion times over? Some scenes seem cut short
or left out entirely, as if we viewers are not allowed to know how a
certain character ended up in a certain situation, or how a certain
character knew a certain thing. Sound logic is few and far between and
along the line I got more and more agitated, as I kept wondering; "Why
doesn't he do this?", or; "Why doesn't she do that?". It's not only
these countless little plot holes you'll have to deal with, but what's
up with those horrible accents? Towards the end of the movie I even
noticed myself getting mad, for it tries to deliver some "twists" and a
philosophical message of epic scale, that rather just epically fails.
