Emulation

Coming from someone that will never be considered a "movie buff", this picture had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end! Getty remarkably portrays a character that gets much more than he bargained for when he desires to live his life through the twists and turns of a movie. I could really see the fear in Noah (Getty) as he suddenly becomes the subject of a nationwide manhunt, unsure of who he can trust or how to clear his name.

With many twists and turns throughout, you will have no idea what to expect. Trust me when I say that when Getty eventually becomes a well known and respected name in the Hollywood community, this will be a movie that helped catapult him to his success. I personally cannot wait to see "Rising Fear", which I've heard to be Getty's next film!

In short, watch this film and enjoy the ride. You will not be disappointed!!

After watching this movie, I couldn't believe it was made by a college student. Each scene was a well-crafted display of the director's vision. This film is the culmination of high-quality cinematography, editing, music, and special effects. To say that this is a well-thought out and well-executed film is an understatement. It is the product of a future star.

The most impressive part of this movie is that Thomas Getty started with a vision and turned it into a final product that displays his skill and creativity while providing entertainment value. Not many people are capable of matching that feat.

This movie was complete drivel from the week plot, terrible acting and schizophrenic directing. Quite frankly I am surprised that it has a high rating though assume the people who made this blackmailed their family and friends to give it a good rating. Do yourself a favour and watch anything made by kids in your local neighborhood with a cell phone as it is likely to be more interesting than this movie.

A note to the writers of this movie: Just because you have an idea for a story it does not mean that it should be made into a movie. Maybe run your ideas past someone not related to you first so that they can tell you to head back to the drawing board.

All the other reviewers and raters have got to be involved with the movie. To say this movie is made by amateurs would be an understatement. The scenes seem like they were all filmed at friends homes and the university were these kids probably attend. I can understand and forgive the obviously low budget that this movie was made on.

What I can't forgive was the terrible acting, writing and directing. Seriously it looks like all the actors were the director/lead actors friends or perhaps fellow classmates who could provide a camera, maybe some editing or just a warm body.

The acting and writing were sub par for even a student film. I would only recommend it to other student film makers as a study in what not to do. Film making like most everything else requires a lot of forethought planning, rewrites, story boarding, actual casting etc before filming the first scene. It's not just hey I have an idea and lets start shooting. Have some respect the the medium.

Saw this one at the Barebones International Film Festival in Oklahoma and have to say the director did a good job doing a throwback to 90s conspiracy thrillers like The Game and Total Recall. I'm eager to see what comes next from him.

Lots of interesting twists and turns. As a whole it was very tightly constructed, not a slow moment throughout. Also makes great use of locations in Pittsburgh.

Very entertaining. Tom Getty displays incredible potential and has action scene smarts. Despite budgetary restrictions, the set pieces were still incredibly impressive
