Funny, engaging, genuinely good performances by everyone but Gideon Emery as Greg was the one that stood out the most to me. And no, I'm not just saying that because he's naked, sexy, and super buff in this (though that's definitely a plus). His comedic timing is very good and he's also very good at playing the nuances of Greg. The 2 issues I had with the movie were the dialogue being a bit cheesy/predictable at times and the pacing, as it felt like the movie dragged towards the end. But overall I still enjoyed it, for a low budget indie movie I was pleaseantly surprised with what they achieved.
You have to admire indie filmmakers who often must rely upon good storytelling without all the bells and whistles that big studios have. Avalanche has done a great job of crafting an engaging drama/comedy all in just one location. It holds your attention and is cleverly plotted and executed. Actors were on point and I was thoroughly entertained throughout.
The review on Critical Popcorn pretty much nails it. This is a smart, well thought out and extremely well acted film. Kudos to Savante, Withers and Emery for taking chances on a low budget independent film. The writer/director deserves credit for being brave enough to write something that we don't see much of anymore. A provocative, funny, extremely clever, artsy, dark comedy. Avalanche surprised and entertained me.
This film totally cheered up my Thursday night! I think this film would make a great sitcom. Fun indie film recommended!
Shocked to see the score on this movie -- I liked it, you know. I think the "not a smasher guy" was onto sumthing. It's not for everyone, I get that, but it has things in it that everyone can enjoy. Patience. It's not a super hero movie. And I thought the first half was slow, but when you get to the end, it's like it all comes together. Like it all makes sense. You get this full feeling and you like and hate the characters all at once LOL
