The Stew

One of the best things i've ever seen, very well directed, good actors and a great script. I'm in love!

Melissa and Carlos are incredibly talented, but the script didn't do the pair any favors. Toxic relationships aren't funny and should not be played off for humor. It's an old way of thinking, and it's time to move on from the mess that just reeks of Leonard Bernstein's failed operetta "Trouble in Tahiti."

Virtually everything in this film is wrong, and most of that irresponsibility boils down to the fact that Wood has no idea what he is doing. Which was glaringly obvious as he directed, wrote, and produced, this catastrophic project.

As a result of his "control" over the film, everything felt like a first draft. Every take seems like the worst take that was shot, and yet they are all used. The line delivery from everyone lacked authenticity due to the directors failure to pull a convincing performance from the Critically Acclaimed actors. It was clear that Chris struggled with this project.

The writing was lackluster, using 70's lingo and costume design to make up for the misstep. The plot, predictable and underwhelming. The most redeeming quality this film has is the small cameo Wood's dog made, and that didn't last. If it weren't rude to walk out of a 9 minute film I would've been long gone.

2/10 for you Mr Wood. Good luck on your next project. I wish you all the best.

There was a lot of hype about this short heading in so I was curious how it would play out. There is some Wes Anderson feel to the style in terms of the visuals and production. It was one of the funnier films screened and Carlos Veldes is a terrific comedic actor. It's a lot packed into a short and used the passive aggressive and limited dialogue to its advantage at times. It was a good short and meet expectations I had. My only criticism of the film is that it's clear the director is trying to find his own footing and style and didn't really have a solid idea of who he wants to be as his own director. The inexperience was there but it didn't hinder too bad so I'm curious and open to see what else he produces in the future. Funny overall but some weak moments. Not a repeat watch for me but enjoyable all the same.

This shirt film was amazing and funny. Love the cast and their acting!
