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.

This film had a good story but wasn't very clear on what it wanted to be. Tension was built is spots but quickly dissipated. Plot points had some holes so wasn't clear what was happening. Music juxtaposed the action. Some continuity issues but overall editing was solid. Nice use of exteriors which enhanced scenic quality. Acting was uneven but good.

Watch out for this

balance the audio - be consistent throughout -so you can hear the actors
Color balance -
balance lighting - inside hotel rooms
watch for the jump cuts -
it takes a while to get to the suspenseful part of the story

Nice focus on music here. You're choices really helped set up the premise and feel for the short. I would have like to see more focus on lighting and camera work. Really look to tighten up your editing too. Trim the heads and tales of each short. Nice work. Keep honing your skills.

I liked it!
