Lost Phoenix

I love this indie action covid movie! After such intense stuff we all went through with covid, it's nice to see some creativity come from it! I thought this was a well done low budget movie, lots to celebrate here. One- a cast that seems very committed to the story and shows up! I thought everyone did a great job. Two- the movie looks really great. You can tell the filmmakers had a lot of vision in how they wanted this film to look. Lastly, and probably my favorite thing about it- the editing! I was so surprised at how tight and sharp this movie is. Would definitely recommend to any indie movie fans looking for some great action.

Very interesting concept, and original in many ways - even when compared to films covering similar territory.

Cinematography is first rate. Scene compositions, fight sequences, pacing, sound effects, editing - considering its indie status and budgetary restraints, all very strong. Impressive. A great team of filmmakers came together on this. That is very clear.

Director James Couche most certainly has his own style. Great cinematic choices. Transitions. He has a touch, and I will most definitely be keeping an eye out for him.

The writing, overall, is good, but there were a couple of holes in the logic, and a few scenes seemed a touch overwritten - but that's just me.

As for performance standouts: Wan Dral (assuming acting debut) did a great job. His character had a lot going on, and he gave every facet his full attention. David Norton is as slick and sinister as they come. Eliza Kelley, being tasked with an emotionally and physically complex, multidimensional role, knocks it out of the park.

I hope these filmmakers come together again and again because they have something going here that really works.

An amnesiac awakens from a coma only to find that people want him dead for stealing a lot of money which he has no clue about, so basically throughout the movie he's being hunted down by a mysterious hit man squad and another mysterious sniper woman. All done around the Covid 19 plandemic and many are wearing masks. Lots of "OK" fight scenes and gunplay, but the bad guys always pause too long when they are about to kill "the good guy" so he gets the advantage, not realistic in the slightest, but still rather entertaining to watch. No questionable content or nudity, some foul language and fight violence, but no gore. OK watch while doing other things. Enjoy.

You've got to check out this creative gem inspired by the COVID experience! I absolutely love this indie action movie! After the intense stuff we all went through during the pandemic, it's refreshing to see such creativity emerge from it. Despite being low-budget, this film is incredibly well done, showcasing a committed cast that brings their characters to life. The filmmakers clearly had a vision, and it shows in the stunning visuals. But what truly impressed me was the editing-tight, sharp, and impactful, keeping the pace brisk throughout. With plenty of exciting action scenes and a blend of martial arts, gunplay, and swordplay, this film delivers in every aspect. If you're a fan of indie movies, especially those that capture the essence of 90s action films with a modern twist, this is a must-see!

This was a pretty good B-Movie action flick.. On the downside, story was a bit muddled and cliched. The caliber of the acting was also uneven, but not too bad.

On the positive side there is some decent humor in here. The cinematography is a cut above what you'd expect in a movie like this. Action choreography was also good, and the editing was also excellent keeping everything fast paced in the action sequences. A standout was the guy who plays the main villain. He had a bit of that James Bond-esque style of villainy, and he was also very good in the action scenes.

On the whole, although not winning any academy awards, this was an entertaining flick, and I enjoyed it.
