Up There

What a fun ride... had me on the edge of my seat almost throughout the whole movie. Zoe's acting ability is superb. The story line is unpredictable and emotion-packed. I found it delightful, and loved seeing my home town on screen. I was sorry to see Jack being such a wimp, which made for a review of 8 instead of 10.... and his boss didn't seem to fit the "editor" role in my view. But those are just two little bumps on the fun ride that this movie provides. I can't wait to see what else Zoe creates!

Zoe is fantastic, the story is great. What these three guys put together is really really remarkable. A lovely movie. We will hear from all of them again for sure. A really lovely, nice, funny, touching, deep movie. And on top of it all, Zoe acting is superb, and she is lovely and gorgeous. Hard not to fall in love with a girl like Emma!

6/10 Definitely worth your time!! This movie has a great story with great actors and will keep your interest. I love the small town setting with the woodsy mountainous back drops. The cinematography definitely shines in this area. It took me back to when I used to visit my grandparents. One major critique though. The opening scene where "Jack" walks into the retail store and is forced to trade his jacket for a phone charger from the over the top "I don't give a crap millennial" character, made absolutely no since and almost forced me to ditch right then and there, but I'm glad I didn't. The stunningly beautiful and talented actress Claudia Doumit who played the part of "Tina", I believe, was completely miscast. The throwback 90's grunge toboggan wearing "Clerks" type character just didn't fit in any way. Sorry :(...

Thoroughly enjoyed the film...loved the characters and the location. It portrayed a deeply mysterious story line which drew you in and made you deeply care for each character. Cudos to each actor especially Zoe Kanters. Thank you for such a wonderful film!

This film tells an authentic, heartfelt story and features bold performances by the three main actors. It is beautifully shot in Michigan's UP, and (as the title suggests), you really do have a feeling while watching the film that you're somewhere else, somewhere remote. As the drama mounts toward the end, there are scenes taking place in long, uncut stationary takes. The emotional momentum is able to really build in these actor-driven scenes, directly connecting you to the movie's emotional core. Thumbs up!
