The Reflection

The acting combined with intense cinematography makes this film positively gripping. The Reflection has the pace of both a good mystery and a supernatural film yet leads to a subject both heartbreaking and relevant. The soundtrack adds to the suspense. Particularly intense is the phone call in which Megan Taylor describes her trust and her love for her partner who turns out to be narcissistic and abusive. The scene where she is staring into the mirror with both confidence and a bit of swagger turning into concern and then almost panic like doubt is particularly riveting. It leads to a boiling and gut wrenching conclusion. The movie addresses a huge issue in society in a tumultuous display that embraces the justice in all of us.

Though I knew this was a short film going into it, I became almost angry coming out of it that there was nothing more to see. Almost 5 minutes, then, boom! Roll credits. I wanted a feature length film! For reference, I did not read any reviews, or look at the description before jumping in to watch. Honestly, I'm sad you might have watched the trailer or plot summary by this point. If you haven't, don't! Just go watch the film immediately THEN, read the reviews. The experience will be exponentially better.

The cinematography and the carefully timed horror/thriller music draws you into being captivated within seconds. Seemingly monotonous movements of the actress in the first minute of the film become well placed foreshadowing in the next moment. The way the plot is constructed takes you through all of the emotions you get in any great horror movie. The normal routine, the strange occurrence happening, the realization of what the truth is and the horror experienced.

The only critique I could possibly have is to have more of a horrific impact with the make up effects.

This short film is definitely a must-watch and HAS to be seen from beginning to end. This is not a short film for the distracted viewer, as you do NOT want to blink for fear of missing a second of it.

And like any good film, you definitely have to watch it twice. After this review, I'm definitely hitting the replay button, and sharing it with my fellow horror-movie-loving friends.

The short film The Reflection is very interesting, personally it left me intrigued as to what could continue to happen in the girl's house and how her reaction will be to the new presence that has appeared in her bathroom mirror. It is without a doubt one of the best short films I have seen, a lot of suspense, some horror, it is a good combination. I hope they think about making a long or complete film, many people would see it in premiere. In terms of recording and editing, some things could improve, but the truth is that everything is very good, the scenes and the shots of the girl are from a good position.

This short film is the best. The acting of every character is awesome. The visuals are incredibly stunning, enticing viewers into a world of contemplation and self-discovery. I was completely absorbed from beginning to end, and the central theme of reflection resonated deeply with me. The cinematography and attention to detail were outstanding, creating a visually stunning experience. I applaud the talented cast and crew for their exceptional work bringing this thought-provoking story to life. The emotions of the actors are so realistic, and you can't help feeling the same way as they do. This video was also exciting and kept me watching throughout! Thank you.

This short film stands out as an absolute gem. The performances delivered by each character are truly remarkable. The visuals presented are nothing short of breathtaking, drawing the audience into a realm of introspection and personal revelation. I found myself wholly engrossed from the opening scene to the closing credits, with the central theme of self-reflection striking a profound chord within me.

The cinematography displayed is a masterpiece in itself, characterized by an impeccable attention to detail that orchestrates a visually spellbinding journey. The skilled ensemble of cast and crew deserves a standing ovation for their exceptional dedication in giving life to this intellectually stimulating narrative.
