Jesus, Bro! (2017)
Another Win for Crowdfunding
I'll keep this review relatively short and sweet, with my main point being that you will enjoy this film immensely if you're a fan of any of these talented reviewers or their sites. Chock full of hilarious PureFlix references (my favorite being the bit about the main character/director/terrifying creep from "Old Fashioned"), and delivered in the Brad Jones vein of humor found in his scripted Cinema Snob reviews, as well as his done-on-the-spot Midnight Screenings. The acting is very good considering the budget (and that the actors themselves happily acknowledge that they are not professional actors in other videos), and the direction is satisfactory. The jokes occasionally hit a wall but for the most part are hilariously on target ("Oh, to be 34 again...")
One aspect of this film that jumps off the screen is that it is more than clear to the viewer that all who are involved in this feature have a palpable camaraderie and seem to be having a blast while making this passion project of theirs. Adds depth to the on screen action and lends a positive tone to the comedy as a whole.
Would recommend to any fan of Channel Awesome. I rented the movie on Vimeo for $3.99 but after seeing will more than likely order a DVD copy to show to friends.
The Cabin in the Woods (2011)
Fantastic Movie, Enjoyed Immensely
I went and saw this movie a few days ago with a friend not really expecting much. Just hoping for a decent watch. I can honestly say walking out all i wanted to do was run into another showing and watch it again. The acting was great- loved the stoner guy. Solid story with intriguing undertones. The humor, although sometimes concealed, is there and i did get some good laughs out of this film. The only issue i have with this movie is the reason given for the events of the film spoken at the end. No spoilers, but i just thought it was slightly silly. Other than that, i loved the movie and i would definitely recommend it to anyone. Suspense is great for first hour and a half or so, but the final 20 minute s**t fest at the end was absolutely great. I loved it
