Escape Artist

I had the chance to see this movie at the New York premiere and I gotta say, I've never seen anything like it. The movie has a Fight Club-ish feel but what's cooler than that is the soundtrack came first when the guy wrote it, so the music is a major component... like Pink Floyd The Wall but more movie than music video.

Very cool, very deep movie about the power of social media to expose what's really going on behind the scenes in politics. Highly recommended.

So glad I found this movie. The writing is amazing! So many important issues discussed. How many people even bother to think about these issues today, let alone put them in a film. Kudos for that! The only thing I didn't like was how things turned out in the end. Although I guess they were going for the realistic angle of that's what would happen. Anyways, thumbs up!

One of the most unique films I've seen. I dont know if the director meant for it go be that crazy or not, but I dug it. A lot going on but always kept coming back to the main theme. I'll probably watch it again to catch more stuff I probably missed. Definitely makes you think.

I saw the link to this move on a political forum and the person who posted it was asking for everyone to attack it. I guess it "triggered" some people lol.

Especially for the first movie from this director, I thought it was great. It is quite risky to put a film out with such direct political viewpoints but I think those viewpoints were very 'center' and things everyone can relate to. As far as the style of the movie, I thought it was cool how there were music videos laced throughout and the crazy 'Natural Born Killers' type of flashy editing.

A solid 9 for me for daring to do something different.

An honest view on flaws and blindness of people, influenced by trends and what they've been told without even processing the information. The story is there, the cast was great, and what i loved about this movie is it's original music, written and produced by the director. The only suggestion i could give to the director as a viewer - movie was a little bit too long, some scenes were repetitive and to cut it for about 15 min would be perfect. Otherwise, well done James, and I wish you success on this one and future projects.
