Bolt from the Blue

Page Gomez was a bright spot and held the film together. She was a delight and I was surprised that this was her first feature film. The cinemetography was beautiful. The story overdid the eccentricty of the doctor and seemed to channel Ghostbusters and Back to the Future a bit too much and I did not develop sympathy for the doctor. Also, they had a lot of subplots and characters that were probably not neccessary and used screentime that could have been dedicated to better character development. All in all, enjoyable and I see a great future for the cast and crew. The Alaska setting with beached crab boats made for interesting backdrops.

This is the kind of movie that we need.

I was sceptical at first but I the story took me away. I love the heart.

Acting is believable as are the characters. The story is heartwarming and new. Whomever wrote these characters did an excellent job, only a few cliches. The location is a character all in itself.

Science is in the forefront and it's somewhat believable, it looks possible. There are some scenes that you can tell they used a green screen but the special effects are mostly practical.

The camp is top notch.

The reason I give this a 9 out of 10 is because I will probably not watch this over and over again. I will rewatch, however only a few times.

We need movies like these.

More of this please.

I felt like I was 8 again watching this film, reminding me of what it was like to have childhood wonder and fearless ambitions. The main male character was the epitome of charisma and his acting was incredible, down to his nuanced eye/facial movements and his body language. The chemistry between the leading actors felt genuine and lovely. Despite the simplicity of the plot, the movie never felt derivative, and if anything just reaffirms how much Hollywood has failed to deliver movies that aim for a singular target without missing the mark. But Jack Martin has done it with Bolt from the Blue. I'm confident whatever he makes in the future will inevitably get even better, and I cannot wait to see them!

A hidden gem, I really enjoyed this movie!

Easily this film could be received as B movie or confounded with some bad low budget ones, because for some feature remember a high level amatorial production or a fan made movie; but is not!

Unusual plot bring an unconventional storyline, definitely something different with great cast performance!

This film brought me back to some of my most favorite films from my childhood, like the Goonies.

I will definitely looking for other future works by this filmmakers.

A movie that deserves more recognition and worth a watch by any audience; specially recommended for family and youngsters.

OMG! What a great nostalgic feeling movie. The director and cast do a great job of bringing out that 80s/90s feel. The way movies in the past were grounded and extremely funny at the same time. I love films like this and miss the 90s feel.

It is very well written and acted. Production value is epic. The Cinematography is great. As well as the soundtrack.

I was lucky to catch this on a big screen. You will not be disappointed with renting this film. Jack's Feature Directorial debut is a good one! I cannot to wait to see more from him as his career continues.

No spoilers in the review so you just have to go watch this Sci-Fi on your own and trust you will be in for a happy surprise. The movie trailer also does a great job capturing the films essence without ruining the film.
