Commentary

It’s got a decent enough story and it moves quickly. There’s some drama so we care about the characters, but the cinematography leaves a bit to be desired some scenes are blurry, the audio is a little mushy, and at times, it’s overshadowed by the music. It was a student film, so we’ll cut it some slack– there’s a complete story here, and there’s never any doubt as to what’s going on.
