Watching at the shooting I just feel it's so different from movies I watched. The close up just weird and make me uncomfortable especially when the acting is not pretty. I wonder what lens they use when film. Technical perspective I put this rating.

Weird shoot
what a terrible...
Inbetween all the other projects and coronaclosures and restriction road trip movie , directed written and lead acting, probably edited and produced too by Hannah Black.
Its a empty story without a hint of real spectrumized behaviour, ill rather call the illness idiopathic stubborness in this case, a story about siblings in a family off the hinges, decides to go storm hunting in steephdads icecream sales truck somewhere tornado alley USA. On the road comes also the siblings ''babysitter''(their moms in jail),and a buddy boyfriend of the siblings do also join. They drive , sleep and eat as everyone else do, will they find a storm cell though?
Drew scheid is this films only highlight, hes recklessly fun in his acts, and use his body language to fulfill the lack of good script. He should really develope his witty acting even more(do the pantomime) and the future of a good comedy actor will be a fact. The rest of the cast is just stiff necked, high shouldered, clutched jaws, and stiff upperlip, like under the threat of a loaded gun - acting, with fast headshakes and nods and arm and leg wavering all directions, seeming uncomfortable, even though they are bestfriends in real life too. So i ask why dont act normal and as usual?
Its like a flock of small fish running from the hunting whales, these road trip movies, and just 1 outta 100 really hits the target. This film is grim on ideas, lacks spontanity, and its on the brink of a 1 star value. But there maybe things ive missed to catch, allthough not impressed at all ill give it a 2 star award.
Having first hand experience with close family members, with the asperger spectrum diagnose the message from the grumpy old man to hannah black is, learn the theoretical backgrounds of things you attach to your films, do smile whatever and however you feel, road trip movies are smiling movies, and you dont smile once in this film. Thats bad acting and bad marketing. Try to thaw up when the author cramp hits you, because its well reflected in this flick.
Fake reviews are a strong warning sign of a bad movie.
Looking at the 10 out of ten reviews and 9 plus stars with very few votes and guessed it' a low budget horrible waste of time. It had 'hyping you product' written all over it and sadly it's as bad as predicted. They've tried to delete comments calling them out for this tactic and critical of the movie too.
I should have skipped this film..... it's pretty bad. It's a sad, weak amateur 4-5, with bad dialog weakly delivered, but for the straight up misleading the reader it loses 2-3 stars.
Next time spend more time on your movie and less time writing fake reviews.
