The Wheel

The thing about a drama is you need a good script and actors that can make the story believable. Both of these are present in this film. The acting is really good all around and at times might carry the script. The story is somewhat original and interesting but could have had a few more twists or events to make the story even better. The casting is well done. The actors did a fantastic job from the leads to supporting and cinematography is well done. Overall, this is a good film. If you like dramas and developing stories of bad relationships and the struggles of keeping one alive you should give this film a watch for sure.

Good movie... but should be renamed "A manual for passive/aggressive codependency relationships and how to recognize them and avoid them." A lot of teenage angst for these 20 to 30 somethings. Still need to type about 380 more characters but not much else to say. It's definitely worth the watch though; not a waste of your time like so many movies coming out now. Still need 225 more characters to post this. Go Bears. They suck this season but that's typical. Excited that FIFA has started. Been waiting four years for that. Not expecting much for the American team. They never go very for. Well, that's that. Carry on....

It is just so low budget that it is bad to look at. A shadow puppet would look better. It looks so fake that I can't even fallow the storyline because of how bad it looks. I hope it was shot on a phone because if not they do not understand how to use a proper camera.

I grew up watching films like "sex, lies & videotape" and foreign films that were like slices of life, not epic adventures. This is a beautifully-made film, sensitively directed, and the actors were flawless. It's a significant indie film, and a refreshing break from the countless CGI superhero spectacles that have (pretty much) ruined cinema. It's not an obvious "genre" movie, like a horror film or a mystery. It's simply about feelings and about relationships -- the stuff that cinema was about before Marvel Studios arrived and killed everything.

Anyway, great job by Amber Midthunder and Taylor Gray. Beautiful work! Bethany Anne Lind and Nelson Lee were also terrific in supporting parts. I don't know what other projects these actors were in, but they performed like seasoned veterans. But maybe that had something to do with the director, Steve Pink, who obviously has a way with actors. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if this started out as a stage play. It has that feel, leaning heavily on dialogue and performance.

I would definitely watch this film again.

By the way, I noticed someone left a review about "low budget phone quality" ... which is absolutely incorrect. It's in fact beautiful shot and edited. So I have no idea what that comment was about -- other than to leave a 1-star review, out of spite. People can be jerks, really.

This is such a beautiful story about growth in relationships. So relatable and will definitely pull on your heartstrings. The performances were wonderful. So raw and vulnerable and REAL! A must see!!
