  • When you graduate from film school with great skills but

    Technically, this merits a higher rating. The photography, the sound, the compositing are all very good, as though everyone was at the top of their class.

    There is no chemistry between the actors and they seem to be reading the lines as though they just learned them.

    There didn't seem to be one writer. The whole film seems to be "Oh, yeah, that'd be cool." "Hey, can we?" "What if we?" "Oh, that's a great idea."

    I have seen stories on YouTube with 3 people that have more depth and better continuity.

    Obviously, the people behind the scenes who worked on technical aspects really understood how to get things done.

    The best thing about the film was that it ended.

  • Indoctrination and Misdirection

    In the last 15 years, maybe more, there haven't been many Sci-Fi or Action films with a story. Most have featured special effects, nudity, and profanity because they believe that the public is stupid.

    They're certainly not ready for this movie because you must pay attention to catch the subtleties (no, I didn't misspell subtitles). The target audience probably won't get the movie, which sort of explains the low ratings.

    Of course, if you can follow a story and you're not expecting nudity (washing in the creek scene only), profanity, or sex, this movie offers a good story.

    Strangely, along with Super 8, it is located around U.S. 35 in western Ohio.

    It's all about the indoctrination of the planet's youth. It already feels as though it's happened in real life, but could real kids be pushed into the ranks?

  • Cliché's, Gags, Bad Manners, and a Donkey

    What can you expect from a movie where one of the characters is named Leño? Everything Los Angeles and Chicano is what you should expect, except maybe for the blue and the red.

    Noah Gugliemi and Pablo Santos are central in this crazy film about a party where East LA meets Beverly Hills. What would you do with a big empty house? Throw a party! The characters aren't so different from people I know in Northern California but the donkey was more of a SoCal thing.

    Of course, there are the sexual bits, the surprised neighbors, the smoking, the food, some unusual use of electricity, and a small donkey that isn't a burrito.

    It's House Party for Chicanos.
