    Great first impression with room for improvement

    My immediate reaction when watching was to notice the incredible cinematography, it is really very well filmed and edited and it has an aesthetic appeal you don't see in million dollar productions. However, while I see a meaning beyond the basic scenes, I feel the characters could be more developed through dialogue or some sort of backstory. I would describe it as a snapshot from a longer film, and I would love to see a larger storyline in the future.

    Overall an amazing first short film, good job to Noel (and cast and crew), hopefully we'll see even more from you in the future! :)

    Disappointing

    I just want to say that I don't think many people could do better with a first short film with the budget it had.

    I think this movie looks incredible and I think there was a lot of hard work and thought put into it.I thought some of the visual jokes were funny and the overall idea was pretty cool.

    But on that note I think there's a lot that this fails to do.The dialog is pretty awful and the tone was just all over the place.I know that he said that he was okay with the pacing but I just don't agree.i think the some scenes went on for too long.i don't think there was need for the 20 seconds of the detective walking around the desert.I Also Feel as the editing was a bit off.In the podcast Noel mentioned that he was very inspired by "The end of the fu#*^% world" but I really don't see it. Overall I don't think you wasted your money if you decided to contribute in the go fund me .If for some reason you haven't seen it yet and decided to read this review first definitely go watch it and form your own opinion.

    When horror-ambience is done right!

    I'm a great fan of the podcast, TMG. Thus, I was very excited to see that Noel Miller had published his first short film with a semi-professional production.

    What really stood out to me was the emotional ambience during the action scenes. The police raid and eerie distress caused by Suki's crimes worked really well with the dystopian music theme and almost psychedelic visual editing. In generel, the visuals were quite pleasing and exciting throughout the entire run-time.

    However, I found the dialog to be a bit stiff and emotionless. I don't think it matched well with the themes in the film. I also think that more could have been done to establish Suki's character. It did not have to be much but a bit more character development could have been done quite inexpensively (monetarily and creativly wise).

    With that being said: I really enjoyed it. Taking into consideration that it is Noel Miller's first short film. I attend film school in Denmark. A lot of submissions at school are far less impressive than Suki. I will definitely pass this around to my fellow film enthusiasts.

    Keep at it! You have got the talent, Miller!

    Directed well, story needs some work

    Being a fan of the TMG podcast and pretty much anything Noel Miller and Cody Ko do, I thought I'd check this short movie out. Overall, I thought it was quite for a YouTuber short film. The direction was surprisingly good and was shot pretty well with lighting and the overall tone was solid and consistent.

    My only real concern with the film is the story, I like the idea of this innocently looking women being a serial killer, it's a funny horror movie story. But there isn't really any development. I understand how it can be quite hard with the runtime to really create a true character arc, and if they decide to make a feature length movie, it might be something they work on. But does need work.

    Overall, I think they have potential. I've always said very few YouTuber's would be able to make the jump from YouTube to making working in a movie or TV business and I think Noel Miller and Cody Ko could do that, some of the very few that could.

    a promising directorial debut, but story needs serious work

    I love noel miller. i have a huge amount of respect for him and it is clear that he is extremely passionate about this project.

    that said, i am reviewing this subjectively. suki is well shot, but lies pretty empty in character development and storyline. who is suki? why does she kill? its not a sin to leave questions unanswered in films, but this seems more careless than an artistic choice.

    this film doesn't try to get very deep, and i respect that. but in a film about a killer, i would suggest to focus more on them than suki does.
