The Fixer

My partner and I are not the biggest fans of dark dramas, but this film left us wishing for more. We loved the the main character. The actor's eyes told so much about the story behind the scenes. This film had amazing camera angels, fanctastic sound editing, and wonderful use of lighting. I wish the film's pace was a little faster, but if made into a full lengh film, I don't think I would mind it as much. Defently worth the watch.

The film with its dark element kept our attention throughout to the point when the film came to the final scene it left us wanting more!

Excellent short! Started out by quickly captivating viewers. You're already asking yourself, "who is he?" "Why is he there?", and so on. As it progresses, you're still trying to piece together clues to the opening scene and you're left wanting more and wanting to understand the characters and their pain. Looking forward to seeing the whole thing!

Great story and use of Los Angeles scenery. I wish the movies pace was a bit faster but nonetheless a great story was told. Also Danny Trejo in an apron made it better

The Fixer is a film that rides the knife's edge of humor and grit. Set in the neighborhoods of Boyle Heights and Echo Park in Los Angeles, the story is bound to the cityscape where the Latin culture is proudly displayed and where unconventional protagonist Jack Cross, played by Jesse C. Boyd, navigates effortlessly through a rough neighborhood he clearly calls home.

Boyd's performance is grounded and pensive. A man that carries the world on his back but who's duty to family overrides any moral reservations. And, of course, Danny Trejo - just as threatening in a flower-patterned apron armed with a ladle as he is when yielding a machete in arguably his most iconic role.

Writer/Director Michael Schilf skillfully delivers just the right pinch of levity to help you take a needed breathe between bouts of tension-filled suspense, and the cliffhanger ending leaves you emotionally satisfied, yet wanting more. I can't wait for the feature.
