Film Review: My Bloody Valentine 3D

My Bloody Vallentine 3D is a remake of the 1981 My Bloody Vellentine, but with added 3D. When a tunnel collapses in, 11 years ago, six miners are trapped.  Only one, Harry Warden (Richard John Walters), survives, but he is left in a coma.  It turns out that he killed the other five, to preserve the air for him.  Exactly a year later, on Valentines day, he wakes from his coma and massacres 22 people.  10 years on, Tom Hanniger (Jensen Ackles), the Miner who caused the accident and has inherited the Mine, returns to sell the Mine and Harry Warden returns to kill again, or does he?

Well to me the plot was flawed from the start.  Harry Warden killed the miners who he was trapped with, to preserve the air for himself, not because he was a crazed killer.  Okay it’s not a particularly nice thing to do and does make him a horrible person, but it wasn’t motiveless – his motive was survival.  So why would he wake up a year later and go on a killing rampage?  As the film was a remake, I guess you can’t blame the new film makers for plot holes – that’s down to the original film (although they could have chose a better film to remake).  So I’ll skirt over the plot holes for now (there were quite a few) and get on with how enjoyable (or not) the film is and whether or not it’s worth seeing…

I saw it mostly out of curiosity about the 3D and for those of you that are curious, it’s worth investigating.  In fact it’s the 3D that makes the film.  I think it would be a pretty crap film without it. I did enjoy watching the film and it did make me jump, but that was the 3D, not the film being scary.  I was actually nervous about seeing it, because I thought, being 3D, it might have terrified me.  I needn’t have worried.

It’s not the best film I’ve seen and the 3D is a bit of a gimmick, but overall it’s entertaining and worth seeing, if you’re curious.  By “entertaining,” I mean “not boring.”  My idea of a bad film is a boring one and despite the plot holes and lack of scariness,  I wasn’t bored.
