The Secret Cinema - Comments & Tips

5.5 Good idea. Looks great and well shot. I just didn''t feel any pain in the Helen character who was going through this ordeal. If she suffered more or even had a set up then I think it would have worked better. I think the first five minute set up should have been better. I didn''t find it particularly funny either. It''s inventive though, and the scenes and pace are set out well whIch shows skill. The end is good and works better than the start. I don''t know whether it was meant to be scary so I can''t judge it on that. I think a sense of the characters around Helen conspiring about something dark would have been good. It just didn''t click with me as a special viewing experience as I''d hoped.
