Movie Reviews of Afterglow
Movie Review: disappointing
Summary: 2 Stars
I really wanted to like this movie, but, in the end, it just wouldn't let me. The pace was slow but the characters seemed to have interesting possiblilties at first. The actors, as far as I could tell, did a good job with the material they were given. The weakness was in the story. It didn't go anywhere. The characters didn't learn anything. They were no different at the end than the beginning accept one of them was pregnant. The character of Jeffrey was contradictory and hard to believe. He was one minute frigid and almost robotic, then the next sex-crazed over an older woman. He admits to himself that he loves his wife and yet goes out of his way to say something especially cutting to her simply because she wants a baby. He pretends to live on the edge, but is ultra-controlled and lifeless. The other characters were more likable but just as incapable of learning or evolving. So what was the point? Very unsatisfying.
