Rightways Down

This movie has some incredible shots, lines, action and ideas. And it was made with tons of love and no money. How does this kid Kyle Acosta shoot this 31/2 hour epic with only $4,000. This isn't perfect and has it's flaws. I wish the sound was better and the running time will turn most people away. But if you're a lover of uber low budget film making than this film will blow your mind.

Don't expect this to makes sense on the first sitting, because the movie burdens the viewer with a ton of information, regardless of the long run-time of around 3 hours. If you got the time to divulge through both the subtle and blaring messages however, then you're in for a treat because this movie exposes the gritty atmosphere of California that you don't see in other movies or tv shows; these people aren't heroes, but they're dynamic humans like us, with most characters providing sentiment moments, despite their methods of business. Even with plot holes and some poor acting sequences, the movie is engaging due to its relevance to social and economical issues that we could relate to to some extent. I recommend it due to the message and fresh perspective it provides the viewer, despite the films shortcomings in certain areas.
