Golden Hour

After watching this miniseries multiple times over I can say that it's not perfect, but I really enjoyed it. I absolutely loved the visuals, the color grading, the lighting, the camera placement. The score is fantastic as per usual with Elías Ortega. The preferences are good as well, Ralph and Ardit give fun performances. The writing was one of the best parts. I loved the some the quippy sequences between Ralph and some of the other characters. The weakest part has to be the audio however. It's totally inconsistent in the recording and the mixing. It's less noticeable if you watch it with headphones on your phone, but watching it on a T.V. takes you out of the experience. Which is weird as when watching Lover, the audio inconsistencies weren't nearly as frequent, and Lover is 30 minutes longer than this series. However, Ralph really gives it his all in other departments, which makes this series really entertaining to watch. I'm glad I watched it and I can't wait to see what Ralph does next.

As much of a fan I am of Ralph Sepe, I gotta say that I really hated this film. There are some good things like the good cinematography and the good music, but wasn't enough to save this film at all!

(This review is after 3 viewings) The strongest aspects of this series are the score and the visuals. It took a while to get going, Episode 1 is the weakest one of the 3. Episode 2 was very entertaining and funny, and 3 was actually remarkable. The series morphs into something else at that point and the "green powder" trip scenes and the climactic chase scene were awesome. For $7K this is pretty cool, but I'd like to see Ralph put his resources to make something way shorter, that's really great. If he can pull this off, then he do that. Not great, but unique and funny. This series should inspire his audience to make cool stuff and I think that's more the point of this show.

It's always inspiring seeing an aspirant movie maker make a product, the low quality and the alutination scenes were very reminiscent to Requiem for a dream, and those scenes were very creative and fun, i feel that the release of drone was very profetional and gave a lot of cool shots, but sadly the mini series didnt hook me, Mainly because of a couple of scenes that didnt help the movie and felt akward. Major props to the dog actor, he was great and so was ralph. I recomend watching this just to support the creator and maybe help him get will smith or bruce willis in one of his movies

This was really good, but there were some problems that I'm sure fall into the fault of budgetary restrictions, like some of the ADR editing. These problems did take me out of the story, but everything else really saves the series. The cinematography is excellent and the writing is also very strong. The acting from the two leads, Ralph and Ardit, are very good as well. I highly recommend this mini-series.
