1.0 out of 5 stars Could have been good, but... isn't., May 22, 2009

Intermedio (Andrew Lauer, 2005)

Poor Edward Furlong. He started his career with a wonderful turn in Terminator 2, then immediately descended into obscurity, taking crap roles to pay the bills. Seven years later, he rose to prominence again with a fantastic turn in American History X. Here is a kid who'd been given a second chance. And what happened? I'm not entirely sure, but he's back to taking crap roles to pay the bills. And my oh my, Intermedio is the king of crap roles. This makes Detroit Rock City look like Oscar material.

Furlong plays Malik, a pot-smoking roustabout who attempts to make a living as a farmer in the southwest. He has a special bond with his childhood friend Gen (Cabin Fever's Cerina Vincent)--the two of them were in a truck when their fathers went into a set of tunnels connecting America to Mexico and never came out. One day Gen's boyfriend Wes (Fashion Victim's Callard Harris) comes over with a plan: they can all head down to the border of Mexico, pick up $120,000 worth of pot for half the price, and all get rich. All they have to do is get meet the suppliers in some tunnels that run between America and Mexico... Malik and Gen jump at the chance to see if they can find out what happened to their fathers, though Malik's girlfriend Barbie (Buffy the Vampire Slayer's Amber Benson) is a bit more reserved. Of course, once they get down to the tunnels, it turns out to be a lot tougher than anyone figured. And who's that kid Wes keeps seeing?

This could have been quite a flick; the setting is great, there are some decent actors (Steve Railsback also makes an appearance towards the end), and you gotta love ghosts-in-tunnels movies. It lacks a great deal, though, and much of that can be placed squarely at the feet of actor-turned-director Andy Lauer; really, do you need to know any more than that Lauer was the second unit director on Legion of the Dead? (The Courtney Clonch flick, if you end up needing to look it up at IMDB. You can find my review of that one elsewhere on Amazon.) But there's one scene here that really outlines what's wrong with it. It would be a spoiler to completely describe the scene, but you'll know it when you see it. The special effects in the film up to that point had been ranging between competent and crap, but this particular scene, in which one character gets split in half, has CGI so terrible that it's laughable. And the aftermath is even worse. That a director, or anyone else involved with the movie, would be willing to settle for leaving such a terrible scene in a movie says a great deal about it. If the movie's connections don't respect the viewers, why should the viewers respect the final product? *

2.0 out of 5 stars Almost sad, March 20, 2009

By	S. C. McGrath - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was almost sad for Edward Furlong in this film. He has really gone down hill. If you like "B" movies then this one is O.K.
