Bless Me Father

This movie is really intense and you almost have to be kind of smart to actually understand its beauty. The essence of the film is electrifying. The fact you're in a confession booth the whole movie is really cool. Wait until you see the end. The writing of the story had been guessing which way the title was going to go, it was refreshing. Usually you can guess what's going to happen next in a movie and you figure it out yourself, but this one will have you guess. You have to be paying attention when you watch this movie. Not everything is spelled out loud for you. You have to let you imagination kick in, which to me is the true measure of great art!

From start to finish this was a great film. It was entertaining well-presented and the music was powerful. I loved the cast they kept me entertained with raw performances that weren't pushed at all. I think this was a very well cast piece as it seemed all characters fitted their roles perfectly. The story itself has lots of unseen surprises for the audience. Without giving any spoilers there is one point in the film where you are so confused about the main characters decision in the moment. Vinny played by Gianni McLaughlin is a very complex character and the motives behind his choices. Gianni did a great job and I hope to see more.

All I saw wrong to lose a star was that it isn't long enough, I want more!? Any way there will be a sequel, I would love to watch one. I would want to know what happened to Vinny and have the story explained in more depth as it was so captivating, and I couldn't take my mind of the plot after I had finished watching. What a well written script with a story line you don't see coming at all. Around every corner is an unforeseen change of events are it really kept the story exciting and engaging. I would love to see more form this talented cast and crew seriously will there be a sequel as I want one!!!

Bless Me Father is a great movie. It really blows my mind that this film was made with all non actors and it was the filmmakers debut feature film. I am giving them this rating because for limited resources they had and the extremely small budget this was made on it's almost impossible what they did. Usually I don't like when I hear someone wrote, directed, acted, edited, and even did the sound design, but McLaughlin pulled it off. I would say for him next time to delegate some of the responsibilities to other people and the movies will be that much better, it's still really impressive. You can tell the guy put his soul into it. Ive seen the Sistine Chapel and Michelangelo work. This movie is no where near that level of greatness, but I would say the guys out there doing his thing.

This is crazy, I grew up watching some of these guys play high school football and college football. Some big former football players in this movie. If anyone knows, Betim Bujari, who played Nino, was the starting center at Rutgers for 4 years. Bekim Bujari who plays Gino in the movie is a great football player as well, He played professionally. Haha this is so funny to see them play Gino and Nino. There scene is my favorite in the movie. I won't give it away, but you gotta check out that scene. So many local guys, so great to see up there on the big screen going for it! It's nice to see this.
