The worst movie ever, totally without any useful content, bad camera flow, really poor diaglog - and simply super irrelevant. This movie should never have been made - especially not in relation to the murder of Kitty.

I would give this movie a 0, but there is Sophia Lillis here, and I am a fan of her. Even Sophia Lillis fans can safely skip this movie though: they'd better watch short movie Lipstick Stain, that movie is shorter (just 10 mins), and you get more of Sophia there.

What... in the hell... did I just WATCH! Really? Really?? REALLY?!? Good God this was awful. I only watched this to see how well Sophia Lillis can act, seeing as how IT is coming out this Friday. She was good, that's all I have to say in regards to that. The other actors and actresses? Holy cow, awful, just simply awful. I really do hope the situation didn't actually go down like this in real life, what happened to that poor girl, with no one helping. If it did, what a bunch of weak and moronic people. The film itself? Horrible direction, camera work, editing, dialogue, pacing, and acting (save for Sophia Lillis). What a complete slap in the face to the victim, and insult to her family. I don't believe it's the actors and actresses fault one bit. If this director has any association with the Directors Guild of America, fire her from any and every future project. This is a high contender for The Golden Raspberry Awards. Huge thumbs down.

The title and all descriptions of the movie are about a brutally murdered woman, where there were 37 eye witnesses who did nothing to help. If I did not know that this was what the movie was supposed to be about I would never have have had the slightest idea. There is no murder. There is not even the suggestion of a murder ANYWHERE in the film. All we get is a boring "travelogue" of the lives of perhaps 5 people living in an apartment building. We get a couple arguing about the proper way to bring up a child. We get a crazy girl living with presumably her grandparents, and we get an alcoholic who walks around. Oh yeah, there's an elevator operator that operates an elevator. There is one scene that lasts 15 seconds or so, where we see a lady who stumbles on a stairwell in the building and then there is a blurrry suggestion of something that looks like another figure...you see a coat....and I thought...is that a rape? Is it a person who slippped on a banana peel...what's this? That scene presumably occurs at night....everyone is inside their apartments, arguing, or cooking eggs etc. There is no suggestion of a murder or witness or anything else and there are nowhere near 37 people in the cast of this movie....... It is about the aforementioned. "Normal" people riding an elevator, cooking eggs, arguing about petty nothings. The movie should be called "The boring day to day existence of 4 random people in an apartment building doing nothing. Again, in summary, there is ZERO plot, nothing that even suggests a murder. No witnesses to ANYTHING....and a movie about utterly NOTHING. I do recommend you see it because you won't believe me unless you do. I mean, if I saw a movie entitled...The Life Story of Abraham Lincoln ...and then saw a movie about Formula race car driving with one 5 second flash of an audience scene of 50,000 people at a race track and it seemed to look like, with a blurred panning camera sweep, that someone was wearing a black tall hat in the audience...that would make more sense then this thing. It's a matter of taste. I rate this as a NEGATIVE 100.

On its face, I would give this film 7 stars because it has gripping characters and story telling. If it had just been a film about 3 children growing up in a lower middle class complex in Queens, it would be effective in showing the turmoils of their lives in 1962. The acting is great, the cinematography and directing are effective, and the characters are very engaging. Where this film failed, and the reason it lost 3 stars in my estimation, is in that it exploits the tragedy of the Kitty Genovese murder for no purpose other than to attract viewers. The attack is barely addressed at all, and there are huge holes in the story once "it" begins. Now, there's nothing wrong with making film based on, or inspired by, true events. However, this film does nothing for the story or what truly happened on that day to merit its use of those events as a way to draw an audience. There are a lot of lessons to be learned from what happened that night, and if this film addressed those issues, it would be a legitimate tribute to Ms. Genovese and would at least teach the audience about the bystander effect. Instead, this film does not teach anything as most of the characters, except one, are completely unaware that anything was happening (for different reasons). Shame on whomever used this tragedy as a marketing ploy.

I am glad I stopped it and read the reviews before wasting any more time on this movie that moves at a glacial pace and totally disrespects her life. Very upsetting. I love Samira Wiley, but even she couldn't save this.

prince oberoiNov 22, 2022

This movie was a disjointed mess....The title and brief information given about the movie have nothing to do with the movie....I don't believe that victim's name was even mentioned during the film...I can't believe that this crap was funded...somebody had to be looking at this mess as it was being filmed and edited??? They should not pay the director for this garbage....Furthermore, I seriously doubt that there was one shred of truth to any of this film, with the exception of the opening title and information line....This film should be deleted from the planet....absolutely no redeeming qualities....it doesn't deserve a "one" it deserves a "0".....WOW what a piece of crap!!!!!!!!

Historically inaccurate and terrible movie. Could have done without the whale music towards the end as well. It's so bad, I can't even bother to elaborate any further. Please don't waste your time.

I generally don't take the time to write reviews however having just watched the documentary The Witness and the agonizing investigation her brother did to bring peace to himself regarding his sister's tragic death, this movie was completely weird and did not make one iota of sense! How the children depicted in this film would be up at 2:00 AM having dysfunctional issues with their parents is beyond me. This movie is like a psychedelic bad acid trip. The murder itself is belittled and was so irrelevant to a bunch of meaningless circumstances that supposedly had all 37 characters preoccupied at the same time and in the same neighborhoods. It is just a pathetic epic fail to sell to the audience. I felt like an idiot to have kept my nose stuck to the screen for the agonizing amount of time it took for this movie to finally end.
