Review :
Commendable effort is exaggerated budget claims
Every one wants to be the next Robert Rodriquez and show what they did for next to nothing. But what we're looking at here is not what is done for $10k. Like Rodriguez Thomas Dagnino apparently got a whole lot of people to work for free. Unlike Rodriguez he didn't have to buy, develop and print film.
Michael Sidisin's script is well written. Dagnino's direction is spot on. Camera work is pleasing and, thank God, steady. I get so freaking tired of shaky cameras. It's a bit dark at times. In fact it's almost all poorly lit. But that's about the only downside to the production values.
Acting, for the most part, is impressive throughout. Daniella Alonso put on a first class performance.
But the very first song in the sound track would cost more than $10k in licensing. So good luck getting distribution.
