A Secret Handshake

OK, I decided to give this one a go just in case it turned out to be a decent film; though I'm not sure how such misleading comments happen to find their ways to the frontpage of many movies I an curious about, most seem written by someone involved with the film. Anyway, onto the film.

Footage was downright grainy, though the sound quality wasn't too bad, there for a while I thought I was watching something from the 70's. The acting wasn't too bad, though I have to venture to guess the lead role was probably the writer of the script (his acting was the worst). The script was quite disjointed, and many times you'll find yourself asking "Just what the Hell is going on." Even by the end of the movie there are a lot of holes. Some writers try to get away with doing this by saying that it's up to the viewer to fill in the holes with their own ideas; I say that's just a load of crap.

You can get an idea of what the movie is about simply by reading the plot summary; you won't get too much more out of the movie itself, though it did have some strange points. What would I compare this film to? How about a mix between Primer and The Attic Expeditions (awesome flick, much better than this one. Check it out!!!), some movie it isn't like are: Crash, Identity, Unknown, etc.; it wants to be like these but falls short. I will give it a few thumbs up because it kept me fairly interested and it did pick up toward the end, though nothing is really explained.

Bottom Line: Not bad, but could have been done much better for the same cost. How about bringing some of the plot threads together so the audience isn't totally confused, you lose them that way.

This movie was t e r r i b l e! The acting was...*shudder*. And that's a shudder in a bad way FYI. The receptionist at Jacob's workplace was probably the best act in the entire film. Jacob's relationship with his hot, young wife is far from believable, and the "scary, suspenseful" scenes made me laugh out loud. The love scenes looked like something from a softcore porn channel (oh yes, I know)

Better acting can be found in the Incident in Lake County.

If I could bash this movie any more, I would. I just lack the vocabulary, grammar, and time

*shakes head*

Good Story poor acting, but don't let that stop you watching this film. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The finer details are hidden with twists and turns and there's a jaw-dropper at the end. The acting is very much B Movie acting, but that fades into the background as you try and work out what is going on with the story. The cinematography was OK, script was OK, what really makes this film stand out is the story (which I don't want to go into to much details and spoil it for anyone). This film is defiantly worth a watch and I'll be keeping my eyes on Harsha Gijre (screenplay), to see what else he can come up with. Does anyone know of anything else he's been involved with? There were quite a few foreign names in the credits, so he might have done something before in another country.

i watched a little bit of this bad movie. it seems like someone with no skill made it in there basement with a small camera worth 25 cents.

this movie sucks renting it for a weekend watching is like giving your weekend away. it has a bad plot a bad beginning and bad actors every one in it seems as though there just trying to get into the industry. truly if the people in this movie ever make it any where. when gossip shows look back at there career this will be a sad point in it. i wouldn't even want my name on this movie im sorry for those whos name is on it.

This movie feels like it was a senior art school project conceived and executed on too much acid. If it had been 15 minutes long I might have appreciated it as amusing but thankfully it went on long enough to exhibit every possible limitation of writing, acting and directing ability that this team could share. With a bit more effort at emotion on the "actors" parts, that is if they weren't just friends of the director, it could have claimed to be camp. I guess I watched the whole thing, while asking myself why many times, because I couldn't give up hope that there was some point to my torture only to be rewarded with an ending just a couple steps up from it was just a dream, on the triteometer. And what's up with both the director and writer having the same first name: Harsha? Is that Hindi for, 'Don't make a movie with a someone who's also named Harsha'?
