Life in a Day

Life in a Day (2011). On July 24, 2010, thousands of people around the world shot home videos at the behest of filmmaker Kevin MacDonald. The result is 4,500 hours of footage, which MacDonald condenses into this 90-minute film. Some of the clips are interesting, but the sound quality of many of them is poor, and the movie is not subtitled -- except for small, hard-to-read subtitles on the foreign-language portions. In addition, the amateur quality of the video is all too apparent. Generally hard to watch. Grade: C-
