Notes from Melanie

The acting was alright. The only thing I liked was the b movie guy that made me chuckle a few times. The rest was just meh, felt long because I had no interest what these two actors were talking about. Just my opinion.

For years, Chris Stuckmann has given us some of the greatest movie reviews on the internet. His reviews are less reviews and more like breakdowns on the given films. With someone who clearly understands movies, I was curious to see what Chris Stuckmann was able to create.

His first short film reminds me that it's not easy to create a Hollywood picture. This main character reflects Stuckmann's desire to create movies and because of that we begin to relate with him. It's also touching and sweet, which is what these types of shorts should be. Great work Chris. We all love you.

If you don't know the director is a movie critic, he has reviewed hundreds of movies on his youtube channel and Rotten Tomatoes. I really love his reviews, even through he's way too soft on most movies. The point is he has such a movie knowlegde, so I expected he'd use some of it to create a movie with fantastic plot and cheap (low budget) but genius tricks. Sadly, while this movie has some interesting writting, that's it. Story is very simple, the only thing it's worth watching are the dialogues and movie's somewhat style.

B-

Funny, heartfelt, and well-acted; I'm looking forward to seeing what Stuckmann, Heidger, and Newberry have to offer.

Ok where do I start? Bad title. Actress was ok but the actor was awful. Script is bad. Most of the jokes fall flat. Dialogue is bad. Direction is ok but too much shaky cam. Way too much cheap hokie looking CG. So to summarise; its not good.

I cant help thinking Chris would tear this to pieces if he was reviewing it. If he wants to make genuinely good films he needs to give it 100% of his attention. This feels like a half assed side project inbetween reviews.
