Sunday (2014)
Lovely
I loved this sweet and realistic romance. The leads give out mesmerizing performances that tug at the heart strings. the city of Christchurch is the third character and beautifully shot in a style inspired by Richard Linkletter, it is not just a film but art in every sense of the word. The challenges facing the characters are realistic and the true shame is that this was not widely distributed because society as a whole could definitely benefit from a seeing this. The genuine emotions touched on here will have you laughing and crying in the same breath. You'll be rooting for Charlie and Eve up until the end and even then you'll be asking for more. If you have the chance do NOT pass it up!
Beta Test (2016)
Thoroughly enjoyed!
This is not a 'Big Budget' action film but I loved it! The cast was perfect from the charmingly reclusive Max who reminds me of so many gamers I know to the wounded but determined portrayal of Orson Creed, a man who has been betrayed and used. Though it might seem as though we are jumping in the middle of a story I think that the recap of events is solid and if there had been the bigger studio backers and more time allowed I think we would have found out even more of the great story points hinted at.The action scenes seemed so much more real for the fact that it was not heavily reliant on CGI and honestly every time Manu Bennett has a sword in his hands you KNOW its going to be good. I loved that there was no stereotypical "gamer girlfriend" or hyper-sexualized side story though I would have loved to have seen just a little more interaction between the guys and girl(s). This story is literally the conversation I have had with so many friends about games like GTA and about the companies behind them and I cannot wait to show them this film. For all the people hating on it you have to remember this is NOT a Jerry Bruckheimer production or budget adjust your expectation of 'action' and see a fun movie for what it is. FUN + DEPTH + INDIE= AWESOME!!!
