  • 4/30 4:10 pm - This is a common concept for student films, but honestly this is one of the most creative and interesting versions I've seen. The camerawork and lighting could have been a little better, but the characters and story carry thing just fine. Nice use of editing and graphics to add variety. Some really funny jokes and overall a good script. Good use of music. Clearly everyone went all in, and it really makes what could have been a very basic film into something really amusing. Also loved the Christmas ending - it's totally random, but it works.
  • 4/30 3:11 pm - I enjoyed the premise of this film. I thought it was very funny. There were some points were the story got a little confusing, especially on my first watch. Like when they watch the movie at the end, I didn't realize that section was the movie they made and not more of the story. An effect like a "recording" filter or VHS filter could've maybe portrayed that better. Great work!
