Low Tide

Not much to complain about here. The acting is good, the story is good, there are likeable characters played by likable actors (Jaeden Martell and Keean Johnson) and a couple of 'hissable' villains (Alex Neustaedter and Daniel Zolghadri). The only trouble is that we've seen this sort of thing done many times before and there is nothing particularly unusual about this movie to make it stand out from the crowd. Even the soundtrack of this movie sounds like the sort of soundtrack all these movies have - all sombre cellos and slow strings. I couldn't help thinking of 'The Outsiders' as I watched this, though that is a much better movie and has the added benefit of coming first.

As I said, there is nothing wrong with this movie at all. It is done well and I enjoyed it. It just doesn't stand out.

Story itself is not bad given the encounter and adventure of the teenage, at least not boring. And Jaeden act really make my attention focus on. A 17 yo boy can be that sophisticated is rare. Jaeden is going to be huge!

Wow, I have to say... "amateur" filmmaker Kevin McMullin makes his first ever full length feature film (only one prior short film) as executive producer, writer and director - and nails it. Mad props to him for putting together this little gem as well as he did - as a newbie.

Sure this film had flaws, but to present something better than some seasoned filmmakers have come out with lately, makes those flaws barely applicable, and certainly not worthy of all the 1's and 2's some of the wannabe critics on here gave this great indie film.

His directing behind the camera was great, and he directed his cast perfectly. His writing was also on point, although I did want a little more at the ending. The screenplay was very well put together, the cinematography excellent, and the score very fitting. There were however some editing issues. The casting was amazing, and all performances were exceptional and convincing. These youngsters certainly have a great future in acting ahead of them. Although I'm not a fan of slow paced films, this one was just right with its 84 min run-time.

This was a surprisingly very impressive low budget indie from an amateur filmmaker, and considering as such, is well deserving of my 8/10. If anyone questions my review as fake, click my username to see my 1000+ ratings and 700+ reviews.

I look forward to seeing more from Kevin McMullin and his young stars - perhaps a part 2?

Well made, suspenseful some unique twists and ideas. I would give this a thumbs up!

Really tight story to tell. they succeed to maintain that itchy feeling for being chase by red and still maintain this warm summer vibe. The adventure feels really fun at the same time this story goes on. Every character seems doing a pretty good performance either.

a good fast movie after all.
