What can I say? I don't even know why I left it on, I will admit after 5 minutes I picked up my phone and scrolled for the entire film with one eye and one ear on the film waiting in a vain hope for the action to start.

How this could have the genre of horror and thriller I really don't know. I've seen more horror when my elderly neighbour of 96 comes out into the garden to hang her washing out, treading on a snail and then the thrill of her screaming at the top of her voice that she needs a paramedic.

No this film has not one bit of either of its listed genre, 5 women talking on a zoom call. It's hard to believe it actually made it out of the box.

Save yourself a real bore fest and maybe come to mine with some popcorn to watch my elderly neighbour crush some snails .

I feel it's entirely plausible, if not to be expected, that a 12 year old submitting this as their AV-homework would subsequently fail the class. It's the umpteenth disfigured afterbirth created in the attempt to needlessly evolve the found footage genre. 'Intervention' depicts the most civil, insanely well organised, crystal clear videoconference over a buffer-free and flawless connection, where -for the entire agonising duration closing in on two hours- not a single person gets interrupted. Ever.

It's this lack of any connection with reality, a theme recurring far too many times, that ultimately makes the film rather painful to sit through. The acting isn't particularly horrendous, the storyline not unacceptable, the character progression no travesty; it's the liberties taken that simply scream "This will do fine." It's the utterly and clearly mechanical movement of the mouse indicator on the main character's screen, and expecting it not to be noticed. It's the scene showing all video-chatters vehemently pondering the origin of 'an arm in a photograph', and the main character not noticing the exact same tattoo on the full length of her own entire bare forearm. There are numerous scenes containing a face-palm-worthy discordance between this seemingly hasty, sloppy filmmaking and the frame of reference of anyone alive.

Unless you thoroughly enjoy making glottal noises at a film less realistic than the sun in Teletubbies, it'll likely be best to refrain from watching 'Intervention'.
