    Very Interesting...

    You're never quite sure what you'll get when you watch a low-budget flick; I've often found them to be a surprise - surprisingly good or surprisingly bad. "Rum" falls solidly in the "surprising good" category. Although not perfect (there's always room for improvement, right?), it's well written and directed; has big budget camera work; good acting; and top-notch editing. An excellent job overall. It would have been nice if it was a bit longer, allowing for the characters and story to develop more fully. It's my understanding that this was entered into a contest with a time limit. Too bad.

    Bottom line - it left me wanting to see more.

    Clever, fast-paced, great plot twist.

    This little gem is excellent in every respect. The plot races along with clever dialogue and great visuals. The photography is lush and very creative. I didn't guess the ending and maybe that's why it won a Best Screenplay Award at the Palm Beach International Film Festival. These guy put a whole film into a five minute short.

    The directing is crisp and sharp, and the colors are vivid. The actors are believable and I loved the bartender, who looks like all the bartenders who ever poured me a drink. I'd like to see this group make more movies.

    I believe this was shot in digital video.
