Blood Bound (2019)

Underrated.

[7/10 · 24 July 2020]

Intelligent and well done on an obviously low budget.

Main parts are acted and written well. Honestly could have been an hour longer and I would have still rated it highly.

No good guys and bad guys, various shades of grey everywhere (well apart form the last 30 seconds).

Really enjoyed it.

Bushwick (2017)

Better than you'd think

[8/10 · 9 September 2017]

The backstory for this film try a bit too hard to be political and edgy but disengage your brain for a bit- it's actually quite fun.

No spoilers but this isn't your traditional story arc for a film. There are a few plot holes (no spoilers) but i think the film does convey the sense of being caught up in something totally outside of your own control. The pace ratchets up with every scene, climaxing with the epic finale, which the film makers do a decent job of conveying to you with limited resources.

Basically I watched this while playing a game- I intended to use this film as background noise but ended up being engrossed in the film and ignoring the game.
