Film Review – Urge

To describe “Urge” as a film is tricky, as it doesn’t carry itself like a traditional production. Bravely shedding key elements such as acting, story, logic, and suspense, director Aaron Kaufman tries to shape his debut feature into a sensorial swan dive, drenching the picture in style and noise, striving to make some kind of statement about the extremity of drug use. If the approach was intentional, “Urge” would be something to remember, but everything presented in the effort seems accidental and half-baked; the production tumbles through a brief run time with little awareness of what it wants to say and do. It’s a terrible movie, incoherent and absurd, with Kaufman completely incapable of inspiring anything besides a headache with what’s sure to be one of the worst films of 2016.
