FILM REVIEWS

FILM REVIEW
FILM: E.A.P.
LINK: http://films.thelot.com/films/2101
RATING: 3.5 / 5

WHAT I LIKED: Very moody cinematography - it did a nice job balancing light and dark even when internet streaming can be brutal on dark films. Very nice set and the absinthe shots were fantastic.
WHAT I SUGGEST: I'm not a big fan of films that rely heavily on voice-overs and in all honesty the voice-over could have been removed from this film and it would have been just as effective.

I liked the creepiness of the oldman's face - great production value.

FILM REVIEW
FILM: The Sequence
LINK: http://films.thelot.com/films/30672
RATING: 3 / 5

WHAT I LIKED: Intriguing introduction to a very ambitious question/topic. I liked the graphical and nature elements and would hope they will be more intimately integrated into the feature.
WHAT I SUGGEST: The film seems to touch on such a broad/vast topic (a question that we all ponder) but I'd like to know why I should be interested in watching it through your protagonist.

I hope your film has a really, really good ending!

FILM REVIEW
FILM: CONTROL
LINK: http://films.thelot.com/films/11559
RATING: 3 / 5

WHAT I LIKED: The main actor has some good moments where his torment came through and while the end wasn't necessarily a big surprise there was sense strength in the main character (I was rooting for him).
WHAT I SUGGEST: The lighting and camera work could use some refinement. It would have been nice to have hints of a back story or subtle hints of personality beyond their involvement of their current situation.

That broken tooth is drama!

FILM REVIEW
FILM: Guido Superstar
LINK: http://films.thelot.com/films/25436
RATING: 3.5 / 5

WHAT I LIKED: I actually found this film to be funny - the performance of the caricature was great. Some snappy editing gave it a entertaining style.
WHAT I SUGGEST: The shooting and sound varied in quality which is unfortunate because I was grooving with the premise. Better disco music selection could really electrify this film.

Very fun film - I'd like to see the rest of it.
