The Staff
TLDR
If 30 minutes in, you still feel like you’re getting nothing, it’s not the "slow burn," it’s the movie.
What it's about
The take
It starts out easy and compelling enough, in the middle of a crime scene with a naked dead girl on the shore. But easy and compelling this refuses to be. The film seems to be a slow, painful look at the process of capturing a perpetrator, a detective’s effort to profile a killer. But it threw a lot more at the wall hoping a lot more would stick. The nonlinear storytelling spices up the action, but it just feels like the base story needed all the help it could get. If you do stick with the movie, you’ll see some gory details, some twists, and an unnecessarily complex story.
What stands out
If that’s not a provocative hook, I don’t know what is.
