The Art of Travel (2008)
Hilarious
This film was my favorite film I saw at the Phoenix Film Festival. It was perfectly balanced! The humor provided by Christopher Masterson and the other cast members perfectly contrasts some of the sad undertones of self discovery. It was absolutely hilarious to see Masterson playing such a gringo in such exotic places. Very easy to relate to! The audience feels a connection with not only the film, but with the goals of Conner. It seems almost like a midlife crisis come early, with many of those same hilarious urges. This movie does not even remotely resemble an average low budget film. It is extremely high quality and incredibly enjoyable. Anyone who has ever felt trapped in their life or the need for travel and adventure will immediately connect to this movie. I highly recommend it to everyone, excellent work!
Dakota Skye (2008)
Excellent!
This was an excellent film! I just saw it at the Phoenix Film Festival. Very realistic and convincing. Her story is completely normal in every other respect besides her ability, and I connected much more with the movie because of it. Her quest felt like something a real person would go through. She's unsure of her future, unsure of her feelings, and everything is just confusing. I don't think it can get more accurate than that when describing adolescence. Some people might judge bits of the content to be inappropriate, but I feel that if it hadn't of been there, I couldn't have taken the characters and plot seriously. I really enjoy the fact the Dakota's superpower both is and is not the focus of the movie. The writers were able to make it stay far from any cheesy superpower movie clichés, which was wonderful. The ability was just a tool to allow her to discover parts of herself. I loved the film, excellent work!
