Once again I have been suckered by an industry that first creates the hype pre-release (using things like Rotten Tomato Scores and paid reviews), and then the masses show up believing the hype, and giving a film more credit than what it's due. And in this case, a LOT more credit as it was barely watchable.
I had that sinking feeling about a third of the way in, when I was watching, I think, the 10th slow, boring walk, ride, sit, stare and think with the film 5 inches from my face, do nothing scenes that go on and on. I was thinking, "Dammit, not again."
Then at the end, when I was just waiting for the credits to run so I could jump out of my seat and get the hell out of there, when the scientist looks to the girl and said those stupid lines about how he was expecting the aliens to be the best thing he found, but instead he found her. I just wanted to puke.
The only interesting thing I took away from this movie is how incredibly selfish the main character was. As the puppeteer who held the strings, she still had no problems with manipulating everyone around her, no matter what pain she would cause them. Instead of doing the right thing and getting a dog, she had a daughter.
Please, please, please let The Autopsy of Jane Doe be good.
