Blackbird

I always try to be supportive of independent film, but I also want to be objective.

This film has good performances and cinematography, but the story is very unoriginal and the details feel very implausible.

This has been done before way better and this version doesn't seem to add anything new or have any points to make.

I wouldn't say it's a bad short film, but I have to say it's quite mediocre.

A short of this quality is the foundation for an amazing body of work. An impressive start to what has to lead to a long career for those involved. Heart warming to see that quality art is being made at this point in life.

This story evolves seamlessly. A pleasure to unfold in front of you!

From the writing to the actors, this short film is able to make you feel the waves of emotion from the first shot. Within the short amount of time this story is told, you can feel the actors emotions. It will pull on your heartstrings, and leave you wanting more.

Absolutely beautiful imagery. The story is so solid that I found myself with cold chills at the end. It did what I feel like a short aims to accomplish... I want more from this story! I want to know it all. Score is also incredible. Lovely writing. Solid acting.

This is literally just Black Mirror Season 2 Episode 4 (with a couple of ideas taken from later episodes) but with old Apple products as the futuristic tech and no point to the film. It's very odd that they didn't think that people might have seen one of the most popular series ever and would catch that they just stole the story. Save your time and go watch the Black Mirror episode, it's much better all around.
