Selma

Forget the many plot holes. They are legion and you might have fun counting and listing them (could make it an entertaining game night with friends). Selma herself made the movie unbearable. Bad decisions upon bad decisions, she just makes you want to turn this movie off and walk. Think of the stupidest thing you could do during an acid rain. Think hard. Are you there? Selma has you beat. She will outdumb the dumbest life form on earth. The best thing her father did in at one point in the movie was to yell at her that she should shut up. I felt his pain. I really did. I do not wish a child like her on anyone, environmental catastrophe or not. I will still applaud the original idea and the cinematography, that was good.

Good idea terrible executions

I was so excited to watch this suspense movie. I approach it like watching bird box, and a quiet place. Only the character could not think ahead 5 minute.Every decision that they make was either by being selfish or taken while panicking. Why having the urge to go elsewhere when they can just wait it out. Every bad situation was so repeated. Selfish act, girl yelling, then going somewhere panicking. Not one smart decision out of the that make the viewer cheer for the character. Even if we accept the ridiculousness of the super acid rain the character only comprehend the bare minimum and never tried to make a smart decision. Like waiting out the rain in the tunnel, waiting out the rain under the bridge. Even the last rain. Trying to run away from the rain? Wtf just to end up in some farmland stuck? They could had waited it out in the car driving or not same amount of rain. I recommend a bit but don't expect yourself to cheer for the success of the character.

Interesting concept but poor execution

I really liked the first act of the movie with an interesting set up and dynamics but unfortunately, the movie falls apart due to poor writing and uninteresting characters. "Acid" is the type of movie where it contains an interesting concept about environmental disasters but unfortunately fails to fulfill it's potential because of the messy writing where concepts are all over the place, certain amounts of logic that really doesn't make any sense and characters that are not interesting and honestly, REALLY unlikeable.The camerawork, the sound designs and the color presentations are pretty good. The performances from the cast members are solid as they have some decent moments of emotions. Including some solid special effects and make up used. But the negative components really overshadow the movie. Disaster movies like this I can watch just for fun popcorn but the unlikable characters, plot holes, and the messy writing makes it difficult to really believe much of this movie.
