The Capture

This was obviously a small film. Had big concepts and neat cast. A lot of the ideas are big and sometimes hard to follow. I liked the girl who was an angel, or part of the afterlife not sure. Weird ending but all around interesting indie film. the black scientist was also a very interesting guy with a lot charm. Not sure how it ended that's my big knock on the film.

But still liked the film. It puts out there a lot of sci-fi questions about life and death and what else is out there that we don;t understand. It features three scientist who have done something horrible and now have to fix wha their experiment has done to possibly the world and the the otherworld.

Good acting and interesting concepts even though the end was a little weird.

Saw this on amazon prime. Interesting concept and intriguing characters. It's obviously not a big budget film but the interaction between the main characters is pretty good. They all have different perspectives on what to do about the strange situation they find themselves in and none of them seem to be right or wrong.

Loved that the girl from the Descent was in this.

This was like a proficiently-cooked meal that was ultimately unsatisfying. There as nothing special about it. Don't get me wrong, the acting was fine, the directing was fine, the writing was fine, cinematography and sound, both fine, but all those together didn't add up to more than the sum of its parts. Great films have something - and hopefully more than one thing - that will make them memorable. This had none of that. Hopefully the cast and crew will work their way up to bigger films that take greater chances. The Capture played it safe - no surprises, no "wow" moments, just a heavy, unseasoned meal that will leave you anxiously awaiting your next meal (movie) in the hopes that it'll satisfy.

Novice filmmaker Jim Agnew makes his directorial debut in a film he also wrote, and clearly made on a shoestring budget - and succeeded.

His directing was actually quite good, and although the writing had some plot issues, it was still creative and interesting.

The acting was spot on by all cast, and the cinematography was on point. I felt the pace was a little slow, even for the short 78 min length, and that perhaps this should have been edited down with a faster pace to a short film of about 40 mins.

The score was also fairly decent and apropriate but felt out of place in a few scenes. My main issue was the sets... clearly not much of the budget went into them, as a few desks and fluorescent bulbs with outdated equipment and miles of thin phone lines don't make for a convincing set that apparently needed to draw power from many major cities in many states.

Nevertheless, for a very low budget C-grade film with B-list actors, this was a fun little sci-fi. A well deserved 8/10 from me.
