With Dani being sick Jim is on his own this week as he covers Fractured, a 2016 UK film. The trailer looked promising. While technically a very sound film, the story was less than adequate. It’s one of those occasions where the writing is just bad but the acting, cinematography, sound, and other elements are top level achievements.

We were excited by the title, but were left wanting during and after this film. VelociPastor, sadly, has some lessons on what not to do, and more importantly lessons on what you absolutely need to do when writing or creating a film. Unfortunately this film did not do those bits.

This episode, Jim unloads on this film. We both have strong feelings about this terrible movie, and we hope that when you listen you will have similar feelings as well. While the technical aspects are good, it’s full of the garbage we no longer need from Hollywood, independents, or anyone for that matter. It’s just not okay. Never was and it needs to stop.
