I saw an advertisement for this movie and decided to take a shot and watch it. At first, I felt disappointment since it seemed to be a juvenile production. But as I continued to watch, I thought "So, what?" This movie was low budget and the actors are all young, but why not give it a chance?

I am giving this move five stars. I think it had some problems, but at the same time, I could stay until the end of it. A few things about it intrigued me and kept me watching.

Would I watch it again? A definite NO is the answer. Yes, there are holes in the plot, but many higher budget movies do far worse. It was okay, when all is said and done.

Three young people studying for a test, but they really want a shortcut to be able to pass the test, rather than know the material. Seems college level work. But they know a person, Jasper, who makes terrific study guides, and want to see what he will use. They convince Jasper to give them copies by offering him some potent drugs. The three of them seem more focused on taking drugs than studying and have a lot of experience in doing so. On the way, an old man had fallen, and when they help him, out of his pocket falls a bottle of pills. They take the bottle, and later decide to take a pill each, not knowing what it even is. The bottom line is that one has to take a pill every seven hours, or they die. They don't have a lot of pills. Jasper has access to a lab, and they go there to analyze what the pill is. Jasper is looking for what the molecule might be, but using a microscope isn't going to do it. And that fact alone suggests no one writing the script has the faintest idea of how to go about finding what it might be. They need to find the old man and a supply of the pills. The movie gets dumber and dumber. The three of them seem to think a drug is the answer to any question, and now they really need an answer to stay alive. And a twist at the end.

Davis Browne and Luke Momo have written a thriller that is both entertaining and uncomfortable to watch. (As every good horror/thriller movie should be). The script is first rate and the direction and acting move the audience from the highs and lows discerning viewers demand from the genre.

But Capsules is more than just an excellent genre film; it presents a burning reminder that one seemingly arbitrary decision, a moment that one could easily assume would be soon forgotten can haunt a person for a lifetime, whether that lifetime is long or short.

This is a relatively short film well worth watching.

The team behind this film is young and exceptionally talented. Without a doubt, it's an exciting watch for the entirety of its total run time.

The special effects were fantastic. The pacing was perfect. The shots were beautifully composed. It was hard to look away, even when it got gross and gory (which it did pretty often). Really well done. It's a promising debut with a knockout cast and crew. For a horror/thriller, it didn't take itself too seriously and felt nicely balanced, not being scared to crack a joke here and there.

I'm looking forward to seeing what Luke Momo and rest of the crew does next - it's bound to be great based on this debut!
