excellent independent film

[benniewoodell · 9/10 · 24 April 2010]

I saw this film at the Bare Bones Film Festival in Oklahoma and I was incredibly impressed by the film. The cinematography was very beautiful and colorful, it really drew me into the picture from the opening shots and I found myself constantly saying to myself how beautiful the shots looked. The acting was spot on, they should be very proud of their performances in this film. The production design and locations were well thought out and the editing was very seamless. And the story was well played out by interweaving the lives of three four people back and forth and I won't go into detail on what happens but I loved the role reversals and the underlying themes that were prevalent. I honestly forgot I was watching an independent film, this was a very professional production and it showed how much time and effort they put in to make it so.

If you have the chance to see this film it would be in your interest to do so!

Excellent Independent film.

Well shot, kept me entertained, well written story. Locations were excellent, and the cast was excellent! The acting was above expectations. The whole film was, honestly. From the start, I felt drawn in. Editing was seamless, as stated before. Felt at times that it was not an Indenpendent film. Also, pretty good attention to details, as there were few *mistakes* involved, as you see in many major pictures. I felt like it was a bit of a cliché story, but still made unique of itself. Overall, though, great movie! (Was led to this movie due to three of the actors in this movie doing a series of cartoon shorts, and it was on my recommendations list on YouTube.) Now, it would be great to find this on DVD.
