Low Tide

Well crafted indie flick with fun acting and some great twists! Enjoyed the heck out this one. Read a Washington Post article out of Tribeca that said this was only an $850k budget. Rare to see well directed stuff at this level. Reminds me of "Brick". Curious to see McMullen's next one.

6.5 Stars from me.

Not bad. It is more drama than thrill but it had a steady tension throughout. It is filmed well with some of the scenes being visually appealing. It has a steady but slow pace. I am not familiar with the actors but they held their own.

I wasn't crazy with how the film ended simply because I am detail oriented, felt like I was left with questions and was wanting more. All in all though, not a bad watch.

Story itself is not bad given the encounter and adventure of the teenage, at least not boring. And Jaeden act really make my attention focus on. A 17 yo boy can be that sophisticated is rare. Jaeden is going to be huge!

Wow, I have to say... "amateur" filmmaker Kevin McMullin makes his first ever full length feature film (only one prior short film) as executive producer, writer and director - and nails it. Mad props to him for putting together this little gem as well as he did - as a newbie.

Sure this film had flaws, but to present something better than some seasoned filmmakers have come out with lately, makes those flaws barely applicable, and certainly not worthy of all the 1's and 2's some of the wannabe critics on here gave this great indie film.

His directing behind the camera was great, and he directed his cast perfectly. His writing was also on point, although I did want a little more at the ending. The screenplay was very well put together, the cinematography excellent, and the score very fitting. There were however some editing issues. The casting was amazing, and all performances were exceptional and convincing. These youngsters certainly have a great future in acting ahead of them. Although I'm not a fan of slow paced films, this one was just right with its 84 min run-time.

This was a surprisingly very impressive low budget indie from an amateur filmmaker, and considering as such, is well deserving of my 8/10. If anyone questions my review as fake, click my username to see my 1000+ ratings and 700+ reviews.

I look forward to seeing more from Kevin McMullin and his young stars - perhaps a part 2?

Really tight story to tell. they succeed to maintain that itchy feeling for being chase by red and still maintain this warm summer vibe. The adventure feels really fun at the same time this story goes on. Every character seems doing a pretty good performance either.

a good fast movie after all.
