Vigilante

Having lived on the Gold Coast all my life, it was cool to see an action film set here at last.

I know a lot of US films get made here, but rarely are they set here.

Well here is a film where a guy goes nuts on the scum of the street.

My streets!

What a blast!

Sure it was a low budget film but what these guys did with what they didn't have impressed me.

It seems all it lacked was money because the action scenes were great.

Especially the fight scenes.

And the story was great and the acting as well.

Besides the lead guy unfortunately, but everyone else was awesome. Especially Ozzie Devrish and Christian Radford. They cracked me up, oh and their boss who I didn't know.

Anyway rock on Gold coast filmmakers! Keep at it!

Who cares if Aash Aaron's films are low budget? Who cares if ICU & Vigilante are only average films? They got out there didn't they? Both have been sold to worldwide distributors! And that is what makes a successful filmmaker wouldn't you say? Anyone can criticize, but few can actually put their guts on the line! Aash does, and sure his film's to date are only average on the scale, I'm sure like all artists he will get better per film? Was Divici brilliant the first painting he did? I doubt it.

Well done Aash, keep at it! WM

I am a member of the Gold Coast Film Support Group and proud to join them in their quest to promote local talent, even in their earliest stages.

For the last two years my husband Jeff and I (Tina) love Aash Aaron's films.

Aash's films Vigilante and ICU have played the last two years in a row at the Gold Coast Film Festival which we always attend.

Whether it be a thriller or an action Aash Aaron always delivers.

ICU was a real murder mystery that kept you guessing right up to the last scene.

Vigilante on the other hand though a kick ass action film still had a lot of twists and turns that Aash is becoming famous for.

We love your films Aash.

I think this movie needs two grades, one for hardcore rock/metal fans who are ALSO into mixed-martial arts (MMA) and/or the ultimate fighting championship (UFC), and one for a more general audience. My review's for the latter:

'Low budget' says it for the obvious: poor special effects, poor quality audio and video, etc.

But sadly (considering I wish we, Australia, would have more success with movies), it's equally as bad when it comes to the rest: * very weak acting for the most part * poor casting (the main actor looks inherently happy and easygoing, but he's playing an enraged vigilante seeking revenge for a heinous crime) * and the plot is

(a) fairly simple/straightforward,

(b) a copy of plots used in numerous other movies,

(c) no improvement on the plots it's copying

A low budget action film to be sure, and makes no pretense of taking itself seriously, but good fun for this genre. By far the best things about this movie are Lexie Symon who played Pauline and Robert Diaz who played Luke. Robert Diaz, wow gorgeous eye candy. What a body. I have seen him in other shows and in my opinion is quite a good actor. I would really love to see more of this beautiful person on screen, he is right up there with some of the greats. I do enjoy watching Robert Diaz perform on screen, I really think he is a great actor with great screen presence. I also hope to see a lot more of Lexie Symon who in my opinion has a great future on screen just like her leading man Robert Diaz. Keep up the good work.
