This is an awesome movie!

A great 1st full length feature from Jack Nicoletti and Samuel...the story was believable and all the the actors were superb in their character portrayals. Noteworthy, is the clever use of " flashbacks" interwoven with the real time action sequences. A very entertaining movie to watch! Looking forward to their next project!

Very Enjoyable Flick

The dedication and work ethic for this first offering from Jack Nicoletti and Samuel Castellino shines through in this clever, well created film. Good plot and actors with excellent results on a shoe string budget. I especially appreciated the humorous moments that were so naturally woven into the story. I think there is a very natural talent for that sort of scripting from these young writers.

The Middle Men

The Middle Men takes the viewer on a trip through what can only be described as shock and confusion as two teenagers enter the world of adulthood. and things aren't exactly as they seem. The acting is very good and the music and action keep the viewer engaged. The production is excellent for a zero budget movie. Would love to see what this team could do with a little money and perhaps bringing a historical story to the big screen. All the best! See you at future movies!

Well done!

Such an impressive job from two 17 year old filmmakers!

For the love of film!

This film was an enjoyable homage to gritty caper movies from the last 40 years. The dialogue was snappy and the editing kept the action at a brisk pace. Loved the snippets of classic tv and music that provided a retro feel with a very modern vibe. A bright future for writer/director Jack Nicoletti!

Trivia
The film was completed with a budget of $0, with the cast and crew relying on whatever they already had to complete the film. The only two things purchased for the film were Simmons' knit cap and La Cabra's mask.

Crazy credits
The film opens with a distressed VHS bumper that reads "Thank you for renting from Valenta Video! Enjoy the film!" After the end credits and production company logo, you can faintly hear the sound of a VHS tape being ejected.
