On the Horizon

Objectively and subjectively, this movie is outstanding! I can't say anything but good things about this film. For a film with such a low budget, the director did an amazing job combining a great storyline, ethereal scenery, and mesmerizing soundtracks. The framing of each scene, and development of characters were all very clever, and well executed..something you don't find much of these days. What I like most about the movie is that the director takes the universal theme of "love" and showcases it in a very real and raw way. Your sure to connect with one or more of the characters in some way.

I am positive you'll enjoy this film! It'll have you feeling every emotion on the spectrum, and will leave you wanting more of Casey and Elissa! Enjoy!

I'll say that Pascal's directional debut is nothing short of stellar. It has a few issues in the first 30 minutes with weird arguments and slow pacing, but once the movie really gets going it finds its feet well and sneakily engages you. Casey is an enjoyable character to watch, even if he is a bit of a dick. It's thoroughly engrossing watching his relationship with Elissa evolve and change over time.

From a technical standpoint the movie is rock solid, with a brilliant soundtrack and absolutely mesmerizing cinematography. The director was going for a moody and dreamy feel, and that's what he made. I think making a film with a low budget and simple hard work to find your success is very inspiring, and I'll be adding Pascal Payant alongside David Sandberg on my inspiring directors shortlist. Kung Fury and On the Horizion are polar opposite movies, but they are both a work of passion and devotion and I have the utmost respect for films born from that.

In a nutshell I'll say that if you like Drive, you'll like On the Horizon, and I do suggest you give it a watch. It's not for everyone, but I found it thoroughly enjoyable and wonderful to look at.

This movie is visually STUNNING! Absolutely, one thousand percent, one of the best films I've ever seen! POETIC, HAUNTING & with so much depth, it will stay with you long after. The actors are positively GORGEOUS, but there are so many levels of complexity to the characters they depict. The sceneries are ETHEREAL. The music is truly CAPTIVATING.The story line is so COMPELLING, you will continue to think about and reflect on it long after the ending. This film makes you FEEL to the extreme. The PASSION is off the charts! If I had to describe it in one word it would be INTENSE, in a way that is indescribable but incredibly SATISFYING. ! If I had missed this film, I would have always felt a void. It's one of those movies that make you say "Wow, THIS is what I've always been looking for my whole life!" It is truly a BRILLIANT piece of ART! Pascal Payant is a force to be reckoned with, a VISIONARY & a breath of fresh air!

I was so excited to watch this film. It was nearly impossible to find it so I bought it and what did I watch? I watch my money go to waste... The actor is so handsome, but the storyline is boring, unclear, confusing.. it starts from nowhere and it goes nowhere. All the 10 star reviews are probably from people of the crew or something like that.. The film was extremely boring, lacking storyline, emotional impact.. the actress didn't have any talent in my opinion. There were few nice scenery scenes, but that was it. A friend of mine also watched it and he said he was so bored that he didn't even finish watching it.. :(

I liked it but didn't love it. It was visually beautiful, the scenery & locations were great and the acting was fairly good. But the lack of storyline and lack of depth in the characters are just something I can't overlook.

I just needed more from this story. I just didn't get the sense that they were really meant to be together. It was more like obsession than love. The Christine girl he met toward the end seemed like a better match for him than Elissa. She's too reckless and can't seem to figure out what she wants and has a lot of soul searching to do. The ending was a bit disappointing as there was no closure and it wasn't much of an ending. The entire movie just felt underdeveloped and unsatisfying in the end. I really wanted to love this and it was in my watch list for over a year especially after I saw all these 10 star reviews. So I guess I had higher expectations of this being an epic love story but overall it simply was not. It was an entertaining watch but mostly a teaser of what could have been a great love story.
