Static Codes

I was on the lookout for some indie magic, and bam, Static Codes hit me right in the feels. It ain't flawless, but let me tell you, it's a dope little sci-fi joint with mad heart. The story goes like this: Years post some traumatic event, this dude's claiming his wifey got snatched up by aliens, and now he's drowning in loneliness, ready to call it quits. This film brings a unique vibe I haven't seen anywhere else. The family dynamic between the daughter and Shane's old man character? Straight fire. "Static Codes" is the kinda flick I'd throw at my peeps when they're craving something fresh with a killer story and some real dramatic chops.

Well...I am grateful for people involved and all their efforts trying to pull this out , but simply it doesn't work. Think I managed to pull through 30 minutes and I am really sorry but had to shut it down cause it was too painfull to watch. Its just the way its so slowly progressing to something I couldnt less care what. The movie is playing with your patience. The characters are so generic as they are coming from some video game. Those cops really dont know what are they doing there and what is the final goal. Random scenes, random words, behaving of the characters is so numb and hard to watch. 2 stars and I am very generous.

Interesting drama centering around a paralyzed man's quest to find his missing wife with a unique twist of alien abduction intrigue. Many independent films such as this are often overlooked in the mainstream media because of much lower marketing dollars are not available to allocate to large advertising campaigns thus great little films like this get missed. Such is all the more reason to discover this hidden gem which features solid direction, good acting and a decent script from which to work. Writer and Director David Park delivers a solid story with good dramatic elements resulting in a satisfying film I found very enjoyable.

I liked this movie. The story was good. The pacing was good. Very well filmed and the vfx was good. I liked the lead character's obstacles, especially with his daughter. I particularly am a fan of father daughter stories, so they grab at me and prick my heart. I don't want to give any spoilers but, I am pleased with the outcome of their relationship. This movie was entertaining to watch. I feel that the daughter's life from her point of view could have been added to this story and showed more of the origin of their conflict. From the way this movie ended, it looks like there may be a sequel. If there is one in the plans, I would like to see it. Good job.

Static Codes is an engaging and truly unique film in the Sci-Fi genre. After a man's wife is abducted by aliens, he becomes obsessed with finding her. I thought the special effects were fantastic in this movie, for example, having a face come out of a screen is very difficult to pull off, so hats off to the special effects team. I think the cinematography was outstanding, especially during the night scenes, and I was super impressed by the drone shots in particular, clearly the work of an excellent drone operator. I liked the soundtrack too. This movie is raw and doesn't shy away from human struggles.
