MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
thebogofeternalstench This was shot on film? It looks terrible. THey wasted half their budget on that??? The picture looks horrid, cheap and nasty, and not in a good way.It falls into that cliché '$hitty boring student' type of film where the acting is contrived and wooden as you can get.The sound was terrible. I don't understand why they have so many close ups in the movie either.The dialogue is just....lame.I thought this would be a cheesy, enjoyable movie but its a total waste of time.And again, I cant believe they wasted half the budget on the terrible 16mm or whatever they used.
shane73 Looks good for the low budget, but a terrible script and very very badly acted. I am sure some of the votes of 10 stars are from friends of the director or something. This looks like a well made student film. I know it was shot on film and some of it is shot very well. I am sure most of the budget was spent on the shoot not on getting a good script or good actors. The director does show promise, I would like to see what he does with a decent script. This is by no means on par with any thing like a Sexy Beast, or Tarantino flick. More like a very bad Steven Segal film or a Brian Bosworth film. A best this film is joke of an action film. If there cast were believable and said believable things it would be bearable.
crisunity When I watched this film I had read all the hype about it though I still didn't expect much cause I knew the budget was low and its marketed as this sort of gritty action movie. I was really surprised. Reading the negative comments on the IMDb, I realize that these guys don't get it. It uses a lot of character and literary devices that you never see in these kinds of films. I really enjoyed the dialog - sometimes there's too much exposition, but the story forces you to stay on your toes. Its not a movie for lazy viewers like that one guy who said there was no continuity cause Cash gets stabbed in one scene and in the next there is no wound. There's no wound because it skips back earlier in the day before he got hurt. But it's hard to follow until three quarters of the way through the movie when all the stories come together and you realize what the filmmakers have been doing. Bullets is a different kind of action movie - the plot is pretty basic revenge story, but the way it's told is what makes it special. I agree that Bullets shouldn't be compared to Tarantino, but really its hard not to. It's got revolving story lines, jumps through time, and its chock full of blood and gore. But the blood and guts are supposed to be campy - thats what makes it fun. I think some people take the movie way to seriously, especially when the movie doesn't take itself that seriously. He kills a guy with his own broken bone, I mean come on people! It ain't the Shawshank Redemption! Maybe its not Tarantino - but its pretty damn cool.
nwfilmguy I must disagree this is by far one of the worst films I have ever seen. Yes its a true independent in-terms of the fact that it was shot on 50k.. and man you can tell. The sound is a joke! it clips, the Foley is not present. i mean take some time and do it right! They claim it was shoot on 16mm but i could swear it was shoot on digital, it just does not look like film ... or shoot by people that don't know how to use a camera at all and very bad lighting.The more important thing to bring up is that as an independent you have to have a SOLID story that will drive people and introduce you to characters that will suck you and want you to love or hate them... the only people i hate are the filmmakers for making a movie with out a storyline. Hollywood crap like The Marine are more entertaining than this and thats sad. Its too long with childish writing that does not go anywhere. It has stage actors that over act of actors that have no idea how to act. Even the Exec Producer shows up in and is so bad its a joke. As a director you need to guild your actors, and help them craft their characters.. even if they characters are dry and one dimensional.OK special effects again not bad for 50k BUT still it comes across as a cheap horror film, Troma makes better movies than this. The blood is thin and sprays out all over and does not look real. But not bad for the money... the guns that where all over this movie have very bad audio. The ADR work is a joke! You can tell where they are live on set and when they are totally in some bad sound studio because the audio is to deep.Look this is not a good film, and just because they made it on so little does not mean we should glorify it. Who cares you can tell they made it on nothing, they took no time to make a story that flowed and entertained. The director is young and lacks the talent to make the characters talk. It is an insult to compare this movie to a Quentin Tarantino film! Next time stay in pre-production longer, get actors that can act... spend more money on sound. Suck me in, don't push me out.I also would like to point out they turned down a 1.2million dollar distribution deal because they want full control and want to make 100million and actually think they will. Independent film makers need to learn if they want to make it in Hollywood your first film will not make you that much.. your second film will make you the money.. Its a business.Oh and done give me that "your a sell out" if you do that. First this is not some amazing film that will change your life.. its a violent plot less, bad acting pile that uses the F word far to much to the point where it becomes a joke. So they are not selling out.This film is good for one things... in school "what not to do when you make an independent film" Sorry guys, it is just that bad. Don't waste your time. It will get a cult following because its just so bad... it becomes funny... then boring because you just want it to end.Don't waste your time. I gave it 1 star for effort... and because it is as low as i can go.
