46/100 A down-on-his-luck guy buys a good luck doll which proceeds to ruin his life ...or does it? The gimmick of the film being presented in a 'found footage' format through the eyes of the doll was really cool but, like the old Twilight Zone, "Nick of Time", is the doll really causing all the chaos we're seeing or are we just witnessing this guy losing his mind. Unfortunately, the characters were not particularly charismatic or likable and the film is really slow with long periods of mundane activity and arguments. Great concept, weak execution, generally entertaining. -- DrNostromo.com
