Cold Cross

What a great film! It's really impressive to see what the crew was able to achieve visually in a low budget independent film. I've never been a huge Western fan but the cast and crew really brought this story to life. It includes great storytelling, strong acting performances and a really great original soundtrack. It is quite the impressive debut effort from Dylan Query and his production company (check out the short film prequel "Cold Creek" if you haven't already). Jacob Stieneker delivers a star performance and clearly has a bright future ahead of him.

Looking forward to whatever big things come next from Query Productions!

First of all I'm a fan of Westerns such as The Outlaw Josey Wales, Unforgiven, Tombstone and the like. This movie is right up there with them and is a very dark tale on the cycle of revenge. It was well written and the cinematography, music, and acting is just as good as anything coming out of Hollywood. Considering the budget Query Productions had to work with makes this accomplishment even more astonishing. This proves there is talent outside of Hollywood even without the multi million dollar budget.

This movie is worth a watch to see what can be done on a shoestring budget. It is just as good or better as some of the stuff I've seen on several streaming platforms. This is just the beginning for Query Productions and everyone involved in the film and I can't wait to see what comes next. Congratulations on a fantastic film!

This film was captured by passionate individuals, and let me emphasize that I have no intention to criticize the production, color correction, or editing. Though there are numerous reasons to do so, the creators undeniably put effort into it; credit must be given where it's due. Certain aspects of the film are commendable, such as the distinctive characters, competent acting, and adequate cinematography. However, it is undeniably challenging to watch. I cannot rate it higher than 4 out of 10. Although I haven't completed it yet, I believe it's only fair to acknowledge the filmmakers for their attempt. Congratulations to the creators! Your project has found its place! I wish you success, and I sincerely hope that your next film showcases even more talent, as I truly believe in your capabilities!

I loved this movie. I grew up watching Westerns from my grandpa's lap so it is a favorite genre of mine. The cinematography, storyline and music were phenomenal. As far as the acting, the best compliment I can give is that I became fully immersed in the story, and was especially emotionally impacted by the relationship between William and Jude. Romance, humor, action and grit... loved it! I hope the film industry takes off in Indiana, the talent is certainly here, and I will be following Query productions and the Cold Cross cast and crew for further productions to support! Best of luck as you continue to promote Cold Cross.

I would not consider myself a western aficionado, but I have watched a lot of them throughout my life as I typically enjoy any genre of film. It is rare, though, for a western film to stick out in my mind. That list is limited to films such as Tombstone, True Grit (Jeff Bridges), and Django Unchained. I am pleased to add Cold Cross to that list after seeing it last night.

This film manages to pack a good bit of humor into an otherwise dark film centered around revenge and the consequences for those that seek it. The storyline may be dark, but the scenes certainly are not. Make no mistake that this is one of the more beautifully shot films that I have personally watched. It reminded me of The Revenant a bit in this regard.

I did have some minor quibbles with the film, but all things considered, what a directorial debut for Dylan Query. He is clearly gifted and possesses immense potential as a storyteller. What he and his team managed to accomplish on a very small budget is nothing short of remarkable. I very much look forward to the next project from Query Productions and I would encourage anybody to see this film. It is well worth your time.
