The Target List movie follows two scientists, Donna and Clyde, and their attention-drawing contributions to the scientific community. As their medical innovation, the cancer-curing "Wand" unveils itself to the pharmaceutical limelight, an array of difficulties that aim to discredit Clyde and Donna's work catches them off-guard and sets them forth on a path to fight for their lives and dignity. The chemistry between the protagonists creates moments of quirkiness and humor amidst the intensity of their impending situation. You'll find yourself on the edge of your seat, rooting for justice in a medical world infested with corruption.

I laughed, I cried, I was on the edge of my seat. This truly was 100x better film than I expected. I'm still amazed how good it was! I first thought this will be a thriller but after the first 15-20 minutes it clearly established itself as this action-comedy "we're-on-the-run-from-bad-guys-while-we-goof-things-up" movie and I just fell in love. The two main characters (Donna and Clyde) are just amazing together and made the entire movie so entertaining. I watch indie films a lot but this felt like straight from Hollywood. Rachel Alig is my new hero! This truly is a wonderful film and I recommend it to anyone looking for an action movie with comedy but also moments of somber reality.
Target List is a unique movie in that it has many things going for it simultaneously. For one, it's a great story driven by two protagonists with fantastic onscreen chemistry. Secondly, I personally like the big pharma conspiracy stuff a lot. Thirdly, the dark comedic lines cleverly placed throughout the film's script add a special something to an already great movie.
I had never watched Rachel Alig or Justin Ray in a film prior to watching this production. I was honestly impressed by their performances.
I have watched a few independent films in my life, but this one is special.
If you're interested in seeing g a very good movie with a profound message, check out Target List!

I enjoyed their last film Carp-e Diem so I gave their new movie a try and wow it's even better than their first! This movie has it all. It looks amazing, it sounds fantastic, and the story is just a fun family adventure. Carp-E Diem was more of an adult themed movie this was much more family friendly. Yet still such a fun ride. You fall in love with the absolutely gorgeous Donna and the quirky Clyde almost instantly. I thought the film was going to be a serious action type film but about 20 min in you realize it's an adventure film with a sense of comedy. The film will leave you feeling warm and fuzzy and waiting for the next film from this talented team.
Target List may not be a big budget Hollywood movie, but it does feel like everyone involved was giving it their all, from the actors to the director and everyone behind the camera. It looked good from scene to scene and about as well-shot and edited as a movie from a larger studio might be. The chemistry between the two leads, Rachel Alig and Justin Ray, is very charming. They have a kind of bumbling, comedic energy of two people way too deep in a situation they don't know anything about. It actually reminded me a little of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. I just wish that had been the vibe from the get-go.
It's marketed as a crime/action movie but there really isn't a lot of action. The beginning really sets it up as a more serious action kind of movie, but there are a few gunshots here and there, a couple of pretty short chases, and that's about it. And not all of the dramatic plot points hold water under scrutiny. Then, once Donna (Alig) and Clyde (Ray) get together on the run, it clearly goes for laughs rather than tension or even logic.
All in all, I wish that either the comedy had hit harder throughout the whole movie, or that the action elements had been bigger. Even so, it wasn't a bad time! It's not exactly high-octane action, and some of the logic falls flat, but for all that, it is still fun to watch the characters run around and get out of wild situations by a wing and a prayer. So, for a pretty fun time, go for Target List.
