A Defense

We all know how bad this movie is and where most of the blame lies but I felt it was worth mentioning that Whitney Moore is the one bright spot. If you watch her scenes, she's actually trying, she just has absolutely nothing to work with. Her romantic lead Alan Bagh isn't giving her any energy to work with, her character is thinly drawn, the scenes she's in are poorly edited (and many performances are made or broken in the editing room) and she only gets one or two takes per scene. Given what she had to work with, she delivered as good a performance as you could hope for. And thats not even getting into her looks.

Bagh by contrast doesn't seem to be trying. One couldn't blame him for losing enthusiasm in this project but its still pretty unprofessional. Ham it up if you aren't gonna take it seriously Bagh. Give us something. (Of course, I'm giving him the benefit of a doubt and assuming he actually can act and just chose not to here.)
