Most of the filmmakers in this doco praise themselves as if they are players in the industry but check out their IMDB pages! And notice they are filming themselves talking to younger students who probably don't know better - it's a far cry from being guest lecturers at USC or NYU Film Departments. They managed to score a final interview with Burt Reynolds, which they pump for all it's worth, even though at the beginning of his interview he admits he knows nothing about movie financing nor has he ever gone that route himself! But it's all they've really got (besides some footage with Salma Hayek) so they have him dis the current state of movies (like a lot of older people do when - and not even intellectually tearing into things like digital vs film or streaming vs theaters).
When you notice that these guys are all about trying to appear more famous than they are is it any surprise to see a flood of 10 ratings from accounts that only post reviews for this one film? The more people who tragically stumble on this film, the more low rated reviews it will receive.
To be fair, you'll learn some interesting tid-bits at the beginning, but then the rest is a waste of time. If they're seriously looking into Blair Witch funding, why aren't there any interviews with the filmmakers?
Come on guys, why wouldn't you just be honest and say "we're near the bottom of the barrel but we got SOMETHING done, and this is what we learned!" That kind of honest approach could be interesting, but what they've done reeks of a promotional video for a questionable Time-Share offering. As if they hope this will help them find someone to fund their other films. I couldn't finish it.
