    Matt's Chance a good bet

    Saw this movie a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed the experience. I did find it a bit overwritten and under edited but with a sincere heart. The production values were first rate; especially the cinematography. However it excelled in the casting. The most challenging acting role was taken on by Bill Sorice as the Russian Mob guy. He brought humor and humanity to the part. The cameos by Lee Majors and Gary Busey were first rate but it was Margot Kidder who stole the show. I also thought the routine by the priest was very funny and novel. The entire cast did a great job of delivering a quirky story That I hope does very well in all markets. Fun Stuff!!

    Day in the life of the boy from T2 grown up.

    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.

    Great Indie Film

    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.

    Matt's Chance is a very unique and entertaining independent- a Must See!

    I saw Matt's Chance at the VIFF, in Las Vegas. I was initially intrigued with the cast of the movie and wanting to check it out. Some of the cast includes Edward Furlong, Gary Busey, Margot Kidder, and Lee Majors. Recognizable faces for sure from many different diverse backgrounds and many years of experience. In what is a "very" dark, intense and edgy comedy about Furlong and his girlfriend, a cast of strange characters, and maybe even more in the humor found in the introspection, continually bouncing from reality to unreality. Somehow, all is cleverly pulled together and harnessed by a definite up-and-coming talent, in Director, Nicholas Gyeney.

    With Edward Furlong in his best work to date, Furlong, naturally rides this dark and edgy vibe right out of the gate. He really finds the right right track and pulls you in and stays on course. Gary Busey, is in his natural habitat as the pawn shop owner. Margot Kidder (Louis Lane- Superman) appears out of the fog and does a very intriguing elderly stripper ... that is not routine. Lee Majors (the Six Million Dollar Man- are you kidding me!) as the Barber, and ... Brandy Kopp, plays the beautiful girlfriend to warm things up. Bill Sorice nails the mob boss and Edward Michael Scott plays the rival, Tyler Swift ... not to be confused with Taylor Swift.

    I really believe we are going to see some great things from this fast, up-and-coming director, Nicholas Gyeney. On top of the cast doing a solid performances, Gyeney, does a masterful job of bringing it all together. Keep your eye on this guy.

    funny, a bit dark, well put together film!

    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!
