Masterful Work of Politically Minded Filmaking
7 March 2017
A well structured, written and performed piece of cinematic legend. The lack of familiar faces in the cast permits great immersion and sense of realism. Shot choices and composition are fantastic and tonally perfect for the film. Editing is tight and gives depth to the script. Shows the good vs evil dynamic of rebellion and the cost of "doing whatever it takes" for freedom, and the fine line between governance and fascism.

Look: 9/10 Performance: 8/10 Writing and Structure: 10/10 Editing: 10/10

Could have been great
26 July 2016
Well acted, tremendously written. Original, engaging and enthralling.

Maury Sterling gives a standout performance.

Wonderful in NEARLY every aspect of filmmaking. Visually, not so wonderful... Held back by really shoddy camera work and some off-putting cuts. Weird ratcheting of focus like the camera operators left the focus setting on auto all the time. Still a good movie if cosmetics are ignored, but could have been phenomenal with a different DP.

Good cast. Great script. Bad camera work. Decent movie. Again, could have been wonderful. Missed the mark on one aspect and spoiled all the great elements of the movie.
