When Ever I hear about an online filmmaker Trying to make a feature or long form short I get worried.
Cause even when it is from a group or person I like I fear that it will be bad.
Whether it is Erik Beck talking about Fathersonrun.com or Bobby Miller talking about Tub I always am scared that it is gonna be bad, but that is the point of the net, to get you skill up.
We'll practice with shorts and skits online to get better that's the hole point of sites like youtube, vimeo , filmfights and so on but with this movie they didn't just say “we'll make a movie cause we can!” This film is well acted and well filmed true some parts(the party) are not as well done as the rest of the film but what this film lacks in one or two scenes it make's up for with the overall product.
The Cast is Excellent and and framing is great.
As I watch this film I feel I will see these people again , Whether it be on TV, Web-Shows or Movie's
I guarantee these folks we'll show up like em' or not.
Now With the Exception of the Party Scene(the only Time I felt I was watching amateurs) I never got the feel of this being a Web-Short and that is a true testament to the film making crew .
Now I am trying to find something to rip apart but the twice mentioned Party scene is all I dislike well as far as the Filming/acting go.
Now The Writing I have one Problem, Harris needed the stash to cope, when it comes to loss we all deal in different ways and grieve for different amount of times And for that I am fine with the way Harris copes
So the Fake Stash is not as off putting as you'd think however Why did the friends and family let it go on so long?
It seems to me that is irresponsible , now it is only a movie and I am likely over thinking it But it's still a gripe and I feel they should not have sheltered Him so much.
And I really have nothing more to say about this movie, It was well done and Frankly I'm gonna get my butt over to iTunes now to download it .
The movie works and really is gonna be on my favorite list now.
You will love it or hate it, I do not feel this is a movie that you can just be ok with.
So If you have a chance to watch this Do so, It's worth the 1:20:07.
I hope sweaty Robot makes more movie's and maybe even Harris Birthday 2.
To all who made this great job!
A+
