I'm not sure why, but I recently had this film pop into my head the other day so I came here to see how it's done since I saw it at the 2011 Houston Comedy Festival.
I wasn't going to leave a review, but then I saw a misleading review so I kind of feel obligated. The review by "moviewatcher53" implies that there was a large audience in attendance for the film and that they loved every second of it. However, this is not the case at all. There were only about 20 people in attendance. Most of which were cast/crew from Swooped.
They also take an unnecessary shot at the film that played just prior. The audience (of non-Swooped cast/crew) seemed far more into that film than Swooped. In fact, many people left after the first film. I wish I had been one of them.
My review of Swooped is simple. It's shot well. The sound is good. The story is weak. The main characters are completely unlikable. They have no character arc. They are exactly the same at the end as they were at the beginning. The acting is okay, but the characters are so unlikable that the acting doesn't matter.
Anyway, I felt like IMDb deserved an honest review of that night in Houston. I see now they are remaking this film. The tagline should be "Swooped: The remake no one asked for".
