Review This Film
Be a Critic Every film here was made by a student who took a risk. Your job is to engage with it seriously — rate the craft, write something honest, and mean it. Scores are blind until all reviewers are in. Nobody sees anything until everyone has spoken. That's the deal.

The Verdict Every score you see here was written without anyone knowing what the others would say. No groupthink. No piling on. Five independent voices, revealed all at once. Read the reviews, not just the numbers — that's where the real feedback lives.

Exceptional job! I REALLY enjoyed watching your film. Such great attention to detail and great use of cinematography to tell your story. Great use of depth of field and the editing was also incredibly well done. The cuts were all spot on. The only feedback I might give and it's minimal at that would be to really use more intentional uses of composition to tell the story. I'm not saying that the composition you used is bad but maybe on a couple shots you could have really played with it. Superb!

I want to commend you for your command of the use of your camera. It's very apparent that you know how to uses lenses and to how to really use your depth of field to tell your story. Your lighting, sound and editing were also very well executed. I thoroughly enjoyed watching your film. Your exposure for the most part was great. You could have used a little more light going in the house, coming up the stairs and in the hallway but a job well done.

Thank you for paying so close to the details. You did an exceptional job. It was so enjoyable watching your film. You've got talent so keep making films. Great use of all aspects of cinematography, I was really impressed with your editing and the music choice was very effective. A few favorites of your film: the shot of the door shutting and your lead is right there in the reflection and the edits of your actor looking in the window and turning around and the final edit of the film. Exceptional!

This team did a great job in this challenge! The techniques and skill required to make this project is far beyond normal high school students. The exposures matched from setup to setup. The use of focal lengths to tell the story was spot on. The story was deeper than normal student projects and the directing was great. I'm shocked by the talent in this team.
I really like it.

I really liked the way that you showed the story through the shots, even though there was no audio the shots helped to grasp the story and what was going on. Very well done!

The cinematography really draws you into the film. The writing was quite interesting; the of idea of the main character retracing her steps back to her death. I also enjoyed the ending scene because of the sound effect used to make it seem like the main character was knocked out.

I thought this was very well shot, with the natural lighting and how real the film felt. The audio was fantastic and the transitions were seamless. The only feedback I have is when the girl walks upstairs and then into a room, the camera shook just a bit. The lighting also was a bit too dark in the house initially but the film as a whole was outstanding.

This film is genius. I didn't know the importance of camera angles and audio until this. I thought that this wasn't necessary, but the angle and sounds tell a story, and what we are supposed to feel. Thank you for entertaining me and giving me goosebumps.

I love the way they tell the story without using any dialogue, and really set the eerie tone through music and shots, very good.
