By terrible direction, directionless acting and artsy pretentiousness pan and scan shots which can't replace actual dilaogue, character development and so on. Oh and MUMBLING, oh the Mumbling, the staple of "rural noir" these days.
You ****d *****s of directors, if you're reading my review - mumbling and poor diction, in general, is a feature characteristic of the city people, for the very simple reason that speech patterns evolve very fast there, and for two - because the city is where all the poorest and the most foreign in a country, go - so mumbling is only natural there, as people are unafraid to show poor diction and all. Villages may have a regional dialect or an accent, but never wholesale mumbling, because if you're gonna live in a place you can't really leave from, then you better leave a good impression on others. Mumbling doesn't make your characters "deep" or "flawed" it makes your movie impossible to watch.
