Matt's Chance

I had the opportunity to see this film recently and wasn't sure what to expect. Very funny at times and also has some unexpected twists. The film does have a dark side and covers a lot of subject matter, but in a comical way.

Furlong turns in a solid performance and Gary Busey and Bill Sorice provide excellent supporting roles. Margot Kidder's cameo is worth the price of admission. The entire cast is excellent and the story is very original.

Overall a very well done independent film and a very promising director. I can't wait to see what Mr. Gyeney does next.

I really didn't know what to expect from this movie, although I know a few of the Actors in this film I wanted to go support the film,the Actors and Director involved. I really thought the film had a great original story-line, and it was easy to follow. Matt's Chance is a little on the dark side, but it wasn't bad to a point that I couldn't watch it. There were a lot of comical parts in this movie I really enjoyed from some of the roles. I felt the quality of acting in this film was very good as well as the way the film was put together. Overall I really enjoyed this film and was happy I went to see it. I would recommend anyone to go and see this film!

What to say about this movie. It's not done yet, but I definitely can empathize with John Conner on his feelings. My favorite part might when I saw the Green Goblin as a private dancer. This is the second time I've seen Dafoe in drag, but this time was a lot more horrifying to be honest.

Sure watching him suck face in Boondock Saints was very jarring, but seeing a 65 year old Lois Lane doing a show for the future of mankind, I now see why Skynet won. I don't think I'll be able to do anything adult related for a while. This is some stuff that will last a lifetime. Then again my mutant ability is to repress horrible memories. Need to go smoke a foot long joint to bury this.

This is as far as I am in the movie and I can't imagine needing to say more to sell this film to people. What a trip.

Can't wait for this movie to come out in theaters. I caught it at a film festival and the crowd loved it! My favorite part has to be when the main guy and the bank manager are having kind of an imaginary fight in the bank. So funny! Also loved the mob character. The music was really good too! Really suited the movie.

I can tell a lot of effort went into this movie. The performances were very good, especially the main guy. He was the perfect choice to play a pathetic slob whose girlfriend cheats on him.

I think the ending has a great twist. It really took my by surprise!

See this if you get the chance!

When I found out Edward Furlong would be featured in "Matt's Chance" at my local Film Festival, I jumped at the chance. His role is a departure from some of his most critically acclaimed performances, but Furlong being an artist and not just an actor, makes it a memorable ride. He plays one of those pudgy, vulnerable, underdog characters you'd see in a Seth Rogen character....you find yourself rooting for him even when he finds himself not doing the "right thing", actual or imagined.

He's supported throughout the movie by some well-meaning, if not detrimental, characters. I think we'll be seeing a lot more out there of Edi Zanidache who plays gangsta wanna-be Daddy (Father) Dave. Brilliantly energetic and funny. And Margot Kidders performance...well maybe I wasn't expecting much ...which is why she truly blew me away as Mother Mabel! Her performance was so earnest...I wish there were more of her in this film. Completely under- rated and perhaps forgotten as the artist that she is...she was just fantastic. And as quirky as Busey is in real life, there's still no mistaking, he is a Master performer.

There are some scenes that will stick with you and make you chuckle for days, like the over- dosed paranoid Bunny scene. The whole thing felt like a meth-trip ride...not just the scene, the movie itself. If you like off-kilter comedy with a dark and ballsy edge, go see this Film.
