Anomaly

It is a kind of new interactive imaginary plot that takes your thinking to the next level where you need to establish connection between the VFX and what is behind imagery.

There were a lot of pretty scenes, but where was the story to tie them all together? The music was too loud in places. Was this a crummy review? The show was, too.

I barely review, this may even be my first one on this site. However, I just had to. a 7.1 at the time of my review. Completely inflated. Obviuosly those that were in the film did the rating.

This was a complete waste of time. The acting was fine, the visuals were actually pretty nice in most of the film.

But.... there is no real plot. Something about relationships and a tie to a comet and blah blah. Didn't make it sense, didn't have any particular point, I've watched a ton of films like this and none have frustrated me as much as this one. DO NOT WATCH IT.

I guess it depends if you were looking for entertainment or to satisfy an interest in films and filmmaking. Words and images are obviously so important to story telling but this short film hit the mark for me with the way the sound design and soundtrack played such a key role in telling the story. The director clearly has a deep understanding of sound as story and did a great job balancing it all together in Anomaly. Just watched it for the first time and the piece holds up beautifully for a work done in 2014. A quiet, reflective piece that I think told exactly the story the Director wanted to tell. Nicely done.
