Review :
interesting subject but not very well done
I saw "Followers" on TV, and I have to say that while the subject matter could make an interesting, thought-provoking, dramatic and compelling film, THIS film is unfortunately not it. Among the biggest problems here is that the two lead actors, Sam Trammell and Eddie Robinson, are not very good - they both skim the surfaces of their characters and neither one is able to summon the depth of emotions the events in the story call for (Trammell's voice-overs are particularly heavy-handed and deadly). Mark Dobies and Jerry Laurino are reasonably convincing as unsympathetic characters who ultimately cross a line even they were not prepared for, but they are not helped by the direction or script at all - the dramatic climax, which should be shocking, is almost laughably cartoon-like instead. The film does have a nice look to it, but some of the story elements are far-fetched (Trammell's character's cluelessness, for instance), and the direction is lackluster at best and snail-paced at worst, so even those moments that could have felt authentic come off as being false.
I felt as if I was watching a reenactment of the plot events done by non-actors, for educational and moral-uplifting purposes, rather than eavesdropping on horrific real life events, which is of course what watching a film about this subject should feel like. I could only recommend "Followers" as possible research material if you are interested in this topic, since it's supposedly based on real-life hazing incidents, but as a movie it really falls flat.
