Low Tide

Well made, suspenseful some unique twists and ideas. I would give this a thumbs up!

Not much to complain about here. The acting is good, the story is good, there are likeable characters played by likable actors (Jaeden Martell and Keean Johnson) and a couple of 'hissable' villains (Alex Neustaedter and Daniel Zolghadri). The only trouble is that we've seen this sort of thing done many times before and there is nothing particularly unusual about this movie to make it stand out from the crowd. Even the soundtrack of this movie sounds like the sort of soundtrack all these movies have - all sombre cellos and slow strings. I couldn't help thinking of 'The Outsiders' as I watched this, though that is a much better movie and has the added benefit of coming first.

As I said, there is nothing wrong with this movie at all. It is done well and I enjoyed it. It just doesn't stand out.

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.

Dang, it was good right up til it ended without an actual end! This is one of those you really enjoy right up until the end and it's like a slap in the face of you just watched this for nothing! I want my money back! Really sux cuz it had so much potential, I take back my 5 and give it a one for it ruining my enjoyment of it! Shameful

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?
