Neil Breen's baffling work often appears in lists of the worst movies ever made, or films that are so bad that they're good. There are some sound reasons for this. It is true that many aspects of his films, from acting to character motivation, are either mind-bendingly terrible in how they're handled or flat-out incomprehensible. One should bear in mind that Breen's movies are made on a shoestring, and that Breen is an extremely unconventional filmmaker and thinker in general. What his films to date have lacked in coherence and technical competence, they've more than made up for in sheer heart and entertainment value. Fateful Findings is the most Neil Breen of all Neil Breen films. It is also, in my opinion, his most entertaining movie. You'll probably laugh at many scenes that were not designed to be laughed at, but I'll bet you'll have fun in your bewilderment! Could the same be said for a miserably pretentious film like The Counselor, made by a legendary director working with a star studded cast and a full Hollywood budget? Or how about the pompous moralising of the anti-suspense horror movie, Funny Games? I doubt it. Breen's films are incredibly difficult to rate, given that many aspects of them are undoubtedly diabolical according to many objective metrics. But the result is a series of films far, far more entertaining than a great many soulless Hollywood projects made with budgets running into the tens of millions of dollars. See Fateful Findings and make up your own mind.
