Noir

I actually enjoyed this. Its cheap, but once you get past some of the flaws in the filming you have something pretty entertaining here. I love noir movies so I could see what they went for.

The start is pretty slow but from the moment they got to the school I found the pace picked up. Loved the woman playing Victoria and the guy playing her husband.

Bit long, could be cut down, but enjoyable if you can get past the way it was made.

#SupportIndependentFilms. Making a film is a team effort and a serious challenge. Anyone working in the Industry can tell you that. Pick out anyone in the cast and crew (in any Film) and you will be able to see their lineage of growth in this industry. I've never read reviews before and now I only see Trolls bashing indie films for no good reason. Good Review or Bad, Watch the film for yourself.

Seeing the negative reviews on here seriously put me off watching this, luckily i have a Prime Account so it was free for me to watch and i am glad i did.

Firstly i thought this would be film, it's not, it is a play filmed on a stage. I loved how it mixed plays and film together, but i can see why some would be confused if they only watch the beginning.

The cast did great, i enjoyed the lead woman and her boyfriend the best. Not sure we needed so much of the parents, some of these moments dragged, I could have also done without the detective narrating so much (nothing against the actor).

The show is indeed shot on phones but the big deal people are making about that on here is is silly. Some moments are weaker than others in terms of filming, but most worked fine. I don't think this group will win awards for filmmaking, but i don't think that is the aim here.

I enjoyed it, if you enjoy the genre of Film Noir or stage shows, this has a lot to love, even if it could do with losing twenty to thirty minutes.

PS It is also very clear that the last few one 1 star reviews on here are written by the same person, you can tell by their overuse of !

The disclaimer says it had no budget, was shot on phones and has issues with sound and visual. The reviews on here are begging ppl to take this into account , that it's not film its a theatre show recorded!

Yet they still ask for £8 to watch it!!! No much business sense. They mustnt have yet reached that part of the curriculum on their film course. Students!

For the theatre groups first time filming anything, especially on mobile phones, i think they did a fine job.

I was not going to write a review but it appears that some people on here are expecting a 10 million pound film when this is clearly a play done on a cheap budget under tough circumstances. Some of these reviews just seem like bullying or people going in not reading the description.

Also, a poster has said they found this title on a worst films of 2021 list. That list also has Bond, Venom, Shang - Chi and Army of the Dead on it, it is hardly a worst of list. Also, i repeat, this is clearly not a FILM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have people watched this, it is very clear to see it is a play?

If you do not like slow burn noir style films or theatre, then this will not be for you. I watched this with my wife, she enjoyed it more than me, but i could appreciate what this group did. It could benefit from losing 30 minutes in my opinion, but opinions are like

Well, you know the rest.
