A new film company that is big on ideas and not so much script has come to play. I normally do not like writing about a first endeavor, unless it is positive, but Terra Mater Factual Studios, in association with Tomcat Prods., Finger Films’s “Harodim” is so odd that is rates a write-up.
The trailer had me looking forward to seeing how this new film company would show how the Freemasons were responsible for 9/11. “Harodim,” a Masonic word meaning “overseers,” is so confusing and dull, that even though the subject interests me, I was bored out of my mind. I am a conspiracy’s junkie and this was so hard to follow, I became highly confused and stopped caring. Paul Finell’s camera angles are dizzying and don’t always target the subject most prevalent. The editing is so choppy, that the tension is lacking, in other words bad filmmaking.
Set in a single room a rogue intelligence agent Lazarus Fell (Travis Fimmel) interrogates a terrorist mastermind (Michael Desante). The terrorist tries to explain he was just a terrorist for hire by the people in charge, the ones running the world. Lazarus’s father, Solomon (Peter Fonda) who was presumed dead at the bombing of the World Trade Center is what has triggered the son going rouge. Solomon, however, isn’t dead but the person in charge for every major event of the last 50 years. He is one of the ones in charge.
I recommend a film called “Closet Land” by Amnesty International to see how a one-room format can be terrifying and wholly satisfying.
I did appreciate the original footage that was spliced in to give the film the feeling of the script happening now. “Harodim,” is 94 minutes that just kept putting me to sleep.
