Veneciafrenia works better when it leans into the slasher with the beautiful Venice and its costumes as backdrop, but falls hard when it tries to focus on the main conspiranoic plot of the film, becoming something completely different and far less interesting.

With the idea for a bonkers sci-fi action comedy, DUAL actually plays as the most boring drama of the year trying to be a dark comedy, but it's so bad at it, that it actually needs to say "dark comedy" several times in the movie just in case the audience doesn't get it.

When everyone acts like a robot, you can't take anything seriously.

A cop goes to rescue someone who then calls "b*tch" all the time. The movie is badly dubbed, giving it even a cheaper feel.

One of those things you don't understand how they didn't know how bad it was while they were doing it, or if they did, why they didn't care.

Another example of those "written, produced and directed by the same person" because everyone with a little bit of sense wouldn't go near it.

I kept wondering why would someone make a movie this correct and choose a main character who can't act and a director who doesn't really know what he's doing. Then I realized the director, the writer and the main character are the same person, and that's never a good idea. It's a shame, because the movie has potential, but it's totally wasted by the bad acting of the one character that's supposed to carry the movie.

2020 is not a good year for cinema, luckily we have tons of VOD horror to keep us occupied. Most of them are very low-cost and indie, but have something you can save. Intersect is low cost, indie, has probably the worst acting you can find this year, and a writer who half-way saw IT and decided to add a 45mins flashback to the main characters teen years out of order and that adds absolutely nothing to what's happening. This should have been a 10 minutes short. It's 120 mins making one of the worst experiences for a moviegoer of 2020.

This movie, as the previous one from this spoiled child director, is a complete waste of time. Bad acting, worse directing and a plot that goes nowhere.

Please do not waste your time. Heed my warning.

I wasted mine.

All in all, a teenager's wet dream.
