To Die For

I just bought this movie and I must say it is a filming disaster. The story is good but it is so low budget it is worse than a b-rated 70's movie. Most of it is filmed with obvious green screen and is misproportioned to the actor in the scene. I've seen better filming from old school adult movies. Dialog is worse than a first year drama class in high school. A lot of the character interaction are not together so it is one actor saying a line and the other actor in the scene is saying their line somewhere else. Everything is painfully mechanical and choppy and there is no sense of flow or even audio consistency.

I don't know where to begin. The family settled in to watch what we thought would be a patriotic movie by a good actor.

I like John Schneider, but this debacle is a hot mess.

How could he even approve of what ended up on this dvd? I expected 1000% more.

This looks like a high school student's first video project, who doesn't know anything about sound, editing or storytelling.

The sound is awful. High, then low, then as if in a tin can. Thought there was a flaw on my dvd.

The opening video keeps dropping out. Again, I thought there might be a dvd issue. But no. This was edited deliberately like this.

Why?

You're so talented.

Why all the horrid acting?

Why the horrible editing ?

Why all of the horrendous chroma key? This is the worst use of chroma key I've read seen, At one point I see the fabric wrinkles in the chroma key fabric.

I work in TV and could have done it all in Premiere Pro 100% better.

I could direct it better and find better supporting roles.

And you couldn't get a location?

How? I book them for local productions all the time and they aren't expensive.

This story doesn't make you feel for the character because this isn't worth caring about. It's just a train wreck.

Seriously the worst movie I've ever watched.

Again, why? You have starred in so much. You're a great actor. You know what a good film is.

I really like you, but this was just a disaster.

I love John Schneider, he is one of my favorite country singers and a pretty great actor.... But this is AWFUL.. Shameful.... Just sad. He's still a great actor, but this movie is MST3000 material. He can keep the $30 to buy a better green screen. I'd give him the money if I had it, to film it like an actual film. There is so much wrong that it's hard to know where to start... the female cop looks like a hologram.... Every scene is fake shot with a blue screen/green screen.... The sound is terrible... The concept is relevant to today's headlines, but could have been better if the characters weren't all awful people. ... It's just sooooo bad, God love him... It's just bad.

My mother wanted this movie because of the preview of it but the lighting, acting and just the overall movie was terrible! It's as if someone recorded this with a cell phone! We expected so much more. Just pay the producers and get a good studio to make your movies. The last 3 movies you have done have all been terrible. They just don't look good and the terrible music while talking is just bad.. if you can't hear the actors when they talk that is a problem. You play the music so loud you just can't hear what's going on°° professional like John should know this!!! This movie is horrible, and it's the same thing over and over with someone knocking on the door and the same lines....come on you can do so much better!

From the generation of "get off my lawn" brings you 2 hours of MAGA talking points that liberals hate America and the youth is trash. This may be one of the most poorly shot, edited and sound captured movies in existence. I've seen HS students create better quality of work. Please also try to ignore the terrible constant back and forth of poorly white balanced scenes with absolutely horrible dialogue. If John really did finance this movie with everything he had, he probably should probably sell the camera it was shot on because the movie isn't going to regain that fortune. At one point the Native American bashing is so bad that my ancestors almost came back to slap me in the face for even turning it on.
