True Fiction

The beginning was great the middle mediocre and the end sub par. at some points it was confusing but with good acting and a few crazy scenes it is deff middle of the road watchable and some may even really like it

5.3

Had no idea where this film was going, and i was hooked. Until it got past the midway point and it sort of lost track.

The ending was trash which is why i give it 5 stars

Not a terrible film

Tapping into some universal fears such as isolation, mutilation, and fear of the unknown, True Fiction explored experimentation, gaslighting, and induced fear techniques as fodder for a novelists new book. This film definitely pays homage to a few cabin-fever classics such as Misery, Hard Candy, and even the Shining, with many twists and turns. I loved it!

Sara Garcia and John Cassini show pretty strong here as players entangled in a sick celebrity worship web. Regrettably, however, so much of what happens, or appears to happen, in "True Fiction" baffles to the practical point of incoherence.

And that's the truth.

This was a pretty interesting little thriller

The plot was really fun, while a little deluded and occasionally predictable, the idea of perception-of-reality was interesting and well done. The pacing was also pretty decent, it never felt as though it was dragging, but it didn't feel rushed.

Both John Cassini and Sara Garcia played their characters well, and I feel they bounced off each other surprisingly effectively. The writing felt a little haphazard in some places but it was passable as well.

Third act was also a good way to tie thing up, though the last five minutes or so felt unnecessary. Not awful by any means though.

All in all, a fairly impressive film, even more so because it's a directorial debut. You won't be disappointed if you know what you're getting into.
