Blow Up My Life

A fantastic time! This is the most fun, engaging, thoughtful movie i've seen in a while. The pacing is perfect, i was completely invested in the characters and the story.

The characters - and their quirks, relationships, weaknesses - are just so well developed. I was constantly curious about their choices and next moves, laughed out loud at their jokes, and gasped as their paths turned.

Finally, i really appreciated the setting of the film. The classic new england scenes (fall foliage, leafy suburbs, office parks) felt so relatable, like this could unfold in anyone's backyard.

I had such a fun time watching this one, congrats on a cool, silly, smart film.

I really enjoyed seeing this suspenseful movie at the Austin Film Festival. It is a non stop roller coaster ride till the very end. It is very relatable to the opiate crisis we have today. The characters and the story are an added plus to this film. It also makes me wonder what the pharmaceutical companies have in mind with this opiate crisis we have today. In this movie, all the research the main character does into what the pharmaceutical companies are doing is making it worse for him especially with this woman he calls his cousin comes into the story. This is what builds the suspense and is very engaging to the audience.

I love the sense of humor in this film - it's a thriller that doesn't take itself too seriously and truly keeps you on the edge of your seat with suspense while also poking fun at itself and cracking you up. It's such a creative take on your typical heist with an unusual villain (a pharmaceutical company) but so clever and spot on for 2023. It's so refreshing to see a film with an anti-corporate, anti-capitalist lens.

I also thought the acting was superb and am impressed this is the filmmakers' first feature-length effort. Looking forward to seeing what these guys do next. Highly recommend checking it out.
