Fueling the Fire is a Joke; Don’t Bother Wasting Your Money Watch the movie once, twice, then a third time, and realize how disgraceful the movie is. Fueling the Fire, directed by Tanja Mairitsch, is like a bundle of boringness and sleeping pills, wrapped in a blanket. Released in 2002, this twenty two minute film has won three film festival awards. An appropriate rating to give this PG 13 movie would be a three out of ten. Not only is the movie tiring because of its lack of interest, but it should get the worst movie of the century award.
Why would anyone even think of releasing this movie? How could any studio be so out of touch? At a gas station late at night, the fate of four strangers connects when they all become a witness to a crime. Lies will be told because of the prejudice filled world they are in, and lessons will be learned. Besides some of its moral and lessons, the whole movie is a bore, like watching hair grow all day; with its unconvincing acting, and its low budget movie set. Amy Moon portrays the pregnant mother driving the station wagon with her two little children, Alec Tokar and Rachael Rogers.
She stops at a gas station where, coincidentally, she witnesses three men, Stephen Held, Jeff Whitikar, and Marcus Fields involved in a robbery and murder, just as she unconvincingly drops the gas top. Instead of calling the police like any traditional person would, she acts deranged by staying outside of her car, then runs inside to the car, all while about seven months pregnant. Understanding that this is a low budget movie, they should’ve at least bought a decent baby bump, instead of the lumpy ball they stuffed under her shirt.
The Essay on Rising Gas Prices
There are many different elements that contribute to rising gasoline prices. The major cause for increasing gasoline prices has to do with refining capacity. Even if oil were inexpensive, we would still have a problem converting it into the gas that fuels our economy. That is what keeps the gas prices high. When gas supplies are short, due to an “inability to refine crude oil into gas efficiently, ...
Her acting was terrible and the audience will barely be able to hear her throughout the whole movie. The film then shows from other witnesses’ point of view, Darrow Igus and Jessie Mae Holmes how they see the crime and how such a strong opinion can change the way people see things in life. The film was adapted to show how judgmental society can be. The lesson is a great one, but they should’ve choose an entire different cast, a different setting, louder microphones, better camera actions, and shots from different angles.
It’s a shame they chose such a horrible cast, crew, and setting for this grand project. It had so much potential to rise to the occasion but instead it did a one eighty and went the other direction. Marcus Fields did a magnificent job of portraying the young black thug. Surprisingly that’s the only praise to give to this distasteful movie. Let it be revealed: This boring, time-wasting Fueling the Fire is degrading to the movie world. Recommendation: Please take a nap instead of watching this movie. It’ll be time well spent.
