Question

There is little, if any, “storm” in the new movie Storm Fever. Aren’t actors supposed to act, and aren’t directors supposed to direct? Actor Robert Pierre seems to wander aimlessly around the set. And director Sue Smith can’t seem to figure out how to present a good story. This movie was advertised as “full of adventure.” It isn’t. This movie was advertised as “full of stunning action.” It isn’t. This movie is like a sleeping pill. So if you have any sense at all, avoid Storm Fever.
