Checkpost is seriously an amazing short film, congratulations to the films director, you are seriously gifted.

I saw Checkpost at a special screening a few weeks back and I really loved everything about this short film. The directing was absolutely fantastic the pace is perfect, the editing precise, the music was outstanding and this film presents itself in an almost documentary style.

The story was believable, really informative and quite tense for anyone who doesn't understand the political and social elements of terrorism around the world and on how the media can whip up an event. This is gritty and thought-provoking piece of film that would set a standard for films about this subject matter. I am also amazed by the production value. It looks a million dollars.

I also loved the way all the stories were connected, while the scenes in Pakistan created intensity. The news reports were excellent and we should give credit to all the actors.

Checkpost was produced, filmed and written to be a realistic depiction of political social realism in a news hungry world that exists all around us. This short film will appeal to a wider audience. If you enjoy a fast pace emotionally driven story line, great acting in a film... then rock on. This is something you're going to love. Well done.
