You know you can tell that the filmmakers have a real passion for the films they are inspired by, and they also had a passion for the film they were making. But unfortunately this film was a miss. And this isn't based on the technical aspects, cause honestly, those are easily overlooked, and really, it's great to see
independent filmmakers just going out and making a film. All in all, I'm glad I put money towards this film, I mean, being a amateur (and i mean AMATEUR) filmmaker myself, it was because this film was independent that I wanted to see it. So whatever, the structure wasn't great, some scenes went on too long, but I still would like to check out these dudes' later stuff.One good thing about the DVD is to see the original stuff they shot with "the Lincoln Brothers" which is actually pretty damn funny.Anyway, if you're curious, you should by this, because it probably won't be in any video stores and it won't cost you too much money. Or if I know you I'll lend it to you, but I don't think anyone I know will read this, nor will anyone I don't know. So there you go.An interesting note, as well: Although this film is Unrated in the USA, Canada has slapped it with a 14A, that means the censors here have deemed it appropriate for people 14 years old.....WHAT?! Although they may love it, they maybe should be a little older for this sucker, but who am I to judge.
