Escape Room (2019)
Perfect? No. Fun? Heck yes!
I heard several people in the theater last night say the same thing I did. It is a milder version of Saw. That's not a bad thing though! I think this film will get a WIDE variety of reviews based on the person. It will not be a dud or a blockbuster but fall somewhere in the middle based on the viewer. It was smart but very predictable from beginning to end. I enjoyed the tension that was built although I knew what was coming. The sets were well done. By and large the acting was good, some better than others. The director, cinematographer, and editor all did wonderfully. My family and I enjoyed it. It was fun, worth the night out, and the second mortgage I took out to afford popcorn, chocolate, and drinks at the theater. If you enjoy these type films then by all means go! You will enjoy it. A psycho thriller that succeeds and keeps a PG-13 rating is quite a feat!
Blockers (2018)
I should have been "Blocked" from watching this.
Not worth typing... amateur... fails in every aspect. How was it a winner at the box office? Am I that out of touch?
Losing Christmas (2016)
Well Done!
These days so many people want to get into the fun of film making. Some do it for the money. Some do it for the creativity. Some, like this team do it to deliver a great message. I like to see church groups get into the fun in hopes of delivering the good news. This group did what I have dreamed about yet never accomplished as they carried out all functions of the film making process into a finished product. It was surprisingly well done. I salute the film team and actors/actresses on completing a film of which they can be proud. I look forward to seeing their next film take it to the next level!
Cardboard (2012)
Cardboard
I can't help but sit in awe as I watch this young lady's many films. Her drive and ambition is star quality itself not to mention her work.
This is a quality film, not that I have ever seen her put out junk. The only thing I would change if I had a chance is to cast myself in it instead of just being a fan. But, a happy fan I am!
It was a well written, acted, and directed piece. If you like this film take a look at her other work. She has consistent quality with no useless showboating or the laziness that I see in so many projects these days. Thanks for adding to the beautiful art of our profession. I look forward to more like this in 2013 so don't slow down!
Exam (2009)
A lot of reasons to watch this movie
Any fans that enjoy a good psychological thriller should watch Exam. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The plot and twists were well conceived and pulled off. It kept my attention and my mind was constantly thinking of options involved with the plot. That is exactly what I look for in a thriller. For the most part the acting was well done and I enjoyed the characters. Another big reason that I loved this film and want to promote it highly is because it was "complex" but ever so simple. These people made a fun and quality film intelligently. I have no idea what the budget was but they produced quality with minimal funds. Aspiring filmmakers and screenwriters should watch this twice, once for pleasure, and again as a great lesson in the craft.
