sadly disappointing . . . was expecting a higher caliber of film
I can understand what director K C Bascome was trying to create, but it didn't quite hit the target, at least for me.
All the characters were very well delivered, the acting was excellent in that context . . . but the character development was overdone, and at a certain point it just became laboriously slow and plodding.
It's unfortunate, because with tighter directing and more overall plot cohesion, this could have been a fine piece of work, but the film doesn't quite get there.
The ending in particular seems to be uncoordinated, almost as if thrown together ad lib during the final editing. Perhaps the original script / screen play had elements that weren't effectively communicated.
In summary, great concept, excellent acting . . . but overall, the film itself just didn't deliver the potential that this film could have been.
For any Hide fans out there, sorry folks, that's my honest opinion.
