Last Conversation (2003)
Not the best, not the worst
Not the best short film out there...but definitely not the worst. It has a very amateur look and style to it, and the pacing is rather slow. At the end, you figure out what the concept of the film is, but by then, it's a little too late to feel invested in the characters and the plot. And while the choice of music at the end was pretty, it really didn't fit at all. So, take a look at this film from a learning standpoint. You could learn some "Do's" and some "Don'ts." DO continue writing, shooting, directing, editing, etc. DON'T get discouraged. Continue to learn and develop your craft. Write, rewrite, rewrite again, shoot, edit, re-edit, etc. Best of luck with everything in the future.
Open Water (2003)
A Monumentally Disastrous Film - The Bomb Of All Time
This is without a doubt the worst movie I have ever seen in my entire life. As a writer/director, I'm not sure which offended me more-- the fact that this movie had any success whatsoever...(i.e. a screening at Sundance, a limited theatrical release, etc.)...or the fact that some inane few critics gave it good enough reviews to actually help it get distributed in the first place.
This movie is so bad that I make sure any person I ever see trying to rent this at a video store or buy it....basically I make sure they put it back on the shelf so I can save them from the pointless nightmare they would have to suffer through if they actually watched it.
How and why this movie ever got made is absolutely beyond me and beyond words. I shudder to think that other movies this bad could be picked up by a distribution company in the future.
C'mon, people....give us a good screenplay, a good story, good actors, etc. etc. etc. Basically -- make your film worth watching. This is easily the worst 80 or so minutes ever put together and called a "film."
This isn't rocket science, folks. But the makers of this monumental bomb definitely blew it on the disaster that is "Open Water."
Stay Away...Stay Far Away From This Movie !!!
