Cubic Zirconia

Jaron Lockridge gets better with every project and that's saying a lot when all of his films are great independent work!

Cubic Zirconia is a brilliant, slow burn mystery thriller about a broken detective searching for a missing woman and her two children.

The performances were top notch, especially LT. Bobby Clark portrayed by Keith Johnson. Keith's performance was brilliant! There are so many little details to his performance that I catch on each watch. The entire cast and crew knocked it out of the park.

The twists and turns are sure to keep you guessing all the way until the final act and when the big reveal happens, hold on to your seats! This was a fantastic reveal!

As an independent filmmaker, Jaron Lockridge has mastered his craft and hit his stride! He is truly an example that truly great films can be made independently on a minimal budget. Everything about this film showcases superior use of minimal resources. I can honestly say that I am a huge fan of Jaron Lockridge's work and I can't wait to see what he does with his next film "Betray: Thirst!"

I highly recommend "Cubic Zirconia" to those who truly appreciate great indie filmmaking!

A movie that only has been rated 72 times when I watched it with extremely high reviews should have been a serious warning for me not to watch this movie but I was a bit lazy and didn't research it enough. Every single ten star review is a fake one, well they are real but not honest, just friends of writer/director Jaron Lockridge, that's all. Too bad there are so many liars on this planet but you get too learn to live with these kind of idiots. The movie starts with a tub of ice cream, clearly Häagen-Dazs, but blurred, so that alone is already a serious warning it's going to be very low budget. The worst was yet to come, the buildings or houses where they shot their scenes, clearly uninhabited homes which again shows the lack of professionalism. They could at least have decorated the homes a bit, just to make it look real, but no even that was too much work for them. Then you got the actors, all amateurs, some a bit better than others but all clearly amateurs. The story itself wasn't that bad although my wife and I solved the mystery halfway as it was too obvious. Because it was a low budget movie you start thinking like a low budget story and so you figure it out pretty fast. It had potential as a story, too bad all the rest looked like a B-movie, or even a lower letter of the alphabet.

Jaron Lockridge pulls you into the life of a disturbed detective on a heinous case.

Actor performance was impeccable. I got chills watching the emotional diversity throughout the film as each event unfolds. Realizations occur and will make you sit on the edge of your seat in anticipation of what will happen next.

A thriller like no other filled with a whirlwind of events that you don't see coming right at your face! This story will definitely tug at your very own emotional core, and you will ultimately appreciate why "Cubic Zirconia" is the perfect title to this movie.

You must see this brilliant film!

I was so impressed with the writing of the story. I love it when you see an event in the opening scene and then throughout the rest of the movie the writer unfolds what led up to out.

He also depicted in a very real way what can happen during an investigation involving multiple law enforcement agencies.

The plot twists or excellent! Not to give anything away, but just when you thought you knew what was about to happen, you get thrown a curve ball.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie far more than I even thought I would. It was also a treat to get to hear from almost all the amazing actors in the film after the screening. Outstanding job, Jaron Lockridge!

Great movie!!! A story within a story you could say. It has multiple vibes throughout the movie. It gives you a detailed heartfelt/dramatic story that allows you to use your imagination. I believe it was delivered the way most people would be in favor for. Everyone did an amazing job acting out the scenes. A thriller that has some serious type scenes as well as some comical scenes to help break the drama. I would recommend everyone to give this movie a look. I believe everyone will appreciate the vision of the producer and the deliverance from the actors. Job well done and can't wait to see what is next.
