The Pyramid

The Pyramid starts off with a glimmer of hope—it sets up an interesting premise in the first act that had me thinking this might actually be a solid movie. But as the story transitions from the first to the second act, things quickly fall apart. What could have been a decent film turns into a frustrating experience, with the acting being barely convincing (if at all) and the script making strange, illogical choices that drain the life out of the story. The characters make bizarre decisions that don’t feel real, and their emotional reactions often come off as forced or inconsistent. Some scenes made me wonder if the actors themselves even understood what their characters were supposed to feel. It’s hard to stay invested when the performances lack any real depth or energy. The cinematography doesn’t help either—it’s a mess. The perspective constantly shifts, and not in a way that adds tension or style. Instead, it feels like the filmmakers couldn’t decide what they wanted to show or how they wanted to tell the story. At times, I wasn’t sure what I was supposed to focus on, and that lack of direction made it hard to connect with anything happening on screen. Overall, The Pyramid fails to deliver. It starts with potential but loses its way quickly, leaving behind a poorly executed story, inconsistent visuals, and performances that don’t connect.
