As the aerodynamic drag choppily changes, the vibration goes more violent and travels toward the pod.

But it's the film's final 40 minutes, focusing on the siege of Rose Creek, where the wheels really come off, as Fuqua turns what should have been the high point into an overly busy and choppily edited series of gun battles that exasperate more than exhilarate.

But it's The Magnificent Seven's final 40 minutes, focusing on the siege of Rose Creek, where the wheels really come off, as Fuqua turns what should have been the high point into an overly busy and choppily edited series of gun battles that exasperate more than exhilarate.

Following the 2014 and 2015 avalanche disasters that killed more than 35 people trying to scale the highest mountain on Earth, the timing is either wildly inappropriate or grimly right for "Everest." A properly grueling dramatization of the ill-fated May 1996 expedition that saw eight climbers expire in a blizzard, this brusquely visualized, choppily played epic serves as the latest cinematic opportunity for Mother Nature to flaunt her utter indifference to human survival.

Ice and snow litter the choppily shot final destination for both protagonists, one as met in a dying state by sailors washed off the Arctic Sea, the other heard bellowing with pain.

Unfortunately, the introduction is a bit weak and reads somewhat choppily, and unlike most collections, does not fully contextualize the topic, situating it primarily within Kafka's personal life and leaving it to the chaptered articles to delve into the literary context.

No focus on contestants' charity work, or Will.i.am telling Cleopatra's Cleo Higgins: "Come to my team and I'll make sure you get the right lighting and stage presence." Aside from two extra blind auditions shows (ooh, lucky us), nothing has improved since series one of TV's most sloppily and choppily edited show, which looks all the worse even compared with a misfiring Britain's Got Talent.

Plot elements integral to the story, such as an attack on Aude because she is of mixed Native North American and white descent, the Duplessis Orphans, or the role of Ramtin, another gargoyle, are choppily integrated.

"Communique 90," the first video posted, gives viewers a chance to witness acts of vandalism from the council's choppily edited perspective.

No desire, because the few paintings I'd seen from his heyday in the 1950s, either on the walls of European museums or in the pages of art-history books, always struck me as brittle and overagitated in their choppily repetitive linear gestures.
