Delete (2013)

It would be very good series (close to 8) if only the ending would be something more interesting and not so lame. Basically when I saw this series starting from the middle of first episode (on the 20th minute), I got immediately hooked. It was interesting and acting and dialogue was good. But last 10 minutes of 2nd episode ruined whole thing. Problem was in script. Actors did job very well and I also liked camera work, lens flares and deep depth of field in visuals. It felt like someone else had written the ending of script in hurry. Because of the ending it deserves its below 6 rating. Its sad because 95% of the series was worth rating of 8.

The overly presumptuous camera work made this almost impossible to watch. Waaaay too many Go-Pro shots (guys, just because you own them doesn't mean you have to attach them to EVERYTHING for a funky shaky POV), badly focused shots (yes, I'm guessing those were intentional however it just looked bad), EpileptiCam, bright light sources into the lens with washed out flares and dirty lens look.... I hope the DP got everything he needed for his reel and now will move on to a line of work more suited to his talents (maybe as a bagger at Ralph's) and leave his poor, suffering crew alone. The audio was also very uneven, especially in Mission Control. Blu Mankuma-group's radio mic (which he was on most of the time, for unknown reasons) always sounded awful, boxy, with no high end. Either a really cheap lav or very pooly placed. The best part of the whole mess was Seth Green. I didn't recognize him. His was the most convincing performance of all. Glad I didn't pay anything to see this poorly made piece of Canad-o-crap.

I didn't know what to think of this movie when i just saw it's title and the premise seemed 50/50 for my liking but when i started watching it, boy was i surprised.The acting for the most part wasn't all that bad and to have a cast like Seth Green was surprising enough as it is. Anyway, for those who are fans of Sci-Fi or hacking in general, this movie did get a lot of the real issues with supercomputers or A.I. out there and it played it's cards pretty well.Now despite all of that there are of course a few faults or moments that would probably make people not enjoy this movie as much.Firstly, the movie is too long and overstays it's welcome and it took nearly 30 minutes to get sucked in.And without giving out any spoilers, the ending was quite cheesy and cliché as much as it was cute and would make sense.It's a solid 5,5/10 And giving it a lower score would have flagged it as generic and bland, and i'm not just being generous here.

"Delete" had a good concept and the ending wasn't half bad. If you have nothing better to do, this might be a worthwhile way to spend a few hours. The movie did a respectable job of building suspense.The camera work was meant to be creative but actually was annoying and detracted from the movie.The acting was just good enough but some of the characters were a little hard to take. However overall the casting worked.The plot is meant for the younger crowd and will seem juvenile to older viewers but get past that and there is a fairly exciting story to be had.Clearly this is a made for TV movie and would never have survived wide release. It simply is not good enough but it had its moments and is thought provoking.I feel ambiguous about "Delete" but am not sorry I watched it.
