Solid Rock Trust

From the moment this film began it drew me in. Koko Marshall was really believable. She never went too far. In a film where, for the most part, she is the only person on screen, that is quite a feat. The story was compelling and kept me guessing. The characters were alive and full. The back and forth with each of them kept me on a ride wondering who was going to crack first! Rick Ives did a wonderful job writing this and was the only person who could have directed it. He took me down a rabbit hole of intrigue and adventure. I was always on the edge of my seat wondering how all of this was going to connect. This film is full of surprises and a surprise ending.

Bravo!

Really engrossing and well done. Setting a movie in one place can become monotonous and tedious in other hands, but not in this case. I was hooked early on and kept at the edge of my seat. Koko Marshall was enthralling and very watchable. Not only did she hold my attention, but I empathized with her, not always easy to accomplish, and the actress let me see the character's humanity. The camera work of Dakota Curtis was interesting, unusual, and made the film much more watchable. It's a great tale full of twists and turns that kept us guessing. Kudos to the director, Rick Ives, for a great job.

Solid Rock Trust is an impressive filmmaking achievement. Writer/Director Rick Ives does an excellent job and Dakota Curtis' camera work is on point but it's actress KoKo Marshall that holds your attention. It essentially takes place in one location with mainly 1 actor and they deliver to say the least. It's a smart, involving, and intriguing thriller about a high end bank heist. I know what you're thinking. Is it a movie about a bank heist or about one actor in one location? It's both and it's brilliant. This movie is suspense. This move is emotion. This movie is mystery. This is a movie I recommend.

Rock Solid Fun An International Cast of - One! That's right one and brilliant and I'd ruin it for you if I explained more. This is what I expect of a truly independent low budget feature and Rick Ives has really scored one with this his first feature film (which is kind of hard to believe.) A very clever heist drama with a perfect and tense performance from dialectically gifted Koko Marshall. Skilfully and swiftly edited too with all the twists and turns that go with the genre. It takes an enormous talent to keep the tension high with barely more than one location and he succeeds where many others have failed. I am eager to see what he does next.

Solid Rock Trust is an impressive filmmaking achievement. It's a smart, involving, and intriguing thriller about a high end bank heist. The directing is brilliant, and depicts the main character from almost every angle possible, while making use of extended long takes and short snappy insert shots, making for an immersive viewing experience. Even though this is primarily a thriller, I thought that a few of the emotional moments were actually the high points in the film. The lead actress who portrayed Maddie carries the movie and does so effortlessly, she is truly talented. The directing and editing were extremely impressive. Give this one a watch!
