Talisman

Nothing personal, Kid!

We have a lot of reasons to criticize Talisman (just think of the existence of the &quot;ghost&quot; that goes against all rationality living in the house undetected, or the inconsistency of language use), but the worst part is Sean Lu&apos;s acting. There is no question about it. I know, I know... child actor. We are well aware that in the vast majority of cases they are talentless, bad, or just plain annoying. Criticizing such a thing has no sporting value. But how can someone be THAT bad? I mean I&apos;m sorry, but even those who read the script on first rehearsal act more lifelike and believable than this kid. I don&apos;t know what the other reviewer was watching, although he could be watching whatever, because he can only talk about everything and anything in pretentious superlatives. Just look up any short movie, there is a 95 percent chance you find the guy creaming his pants about the groundbreaking poetry and fairytale-like themes of the title, talking about it the most vague, cliche way know to man. Anyways, Sean Lu can rightfully enter the pantheon of anti-acting next to Tommy &quot;I did not hit her!&quot; Wiseau and Neil &quot;How could you have committed suicide?&quot; Breen, setting an eternal reminder to all the growing generation how not to act. If someone can invalidate and destroy a short film all by themselves, should be rewarded!
