CallaghanFilms Presents "The Gaussian Project"

I wanted to like this film. I really wanted to. But I just couldn't get there.

There was just way too much dialogue for my tastes, and the opening scene seems to go on FOREVER. I have watched it several times now, and still do not get it or care for whatever "it" is.

Once that scene was over...I expected things to make more sense, or at least get more interesting, but they didn't...and then the world blew up. That part I got.

Aesthetically this film was pretty good. Not great...but pretty good. In terms of sound, the boardroom was hard to understand, and the scene where the old guy in the suit is talking to some less old guy in a cowboy get-up, was way too abrupt, and even sounded a tad overmodulated.

As far as the acting goes...it was okay but nothing stellar.

And the story was interesting, but hampered by an exceedingly overly verbose script.

Obviously, you're not a Tarrantino fan, either. For me, I wanted MORE of the opening scene.

I absolutely cannot believe what I'm seeing in this thread. Talk about getting no respect.

Oh well, Callaghan, I thought you put together a nice short. I honestly felt is was a piece of a longer film and that may have hurt the overall experience but I cannot fathom some of the most recent responses you are gettting. :beer: :beer:
 
Blaine,

What can I say. You pinned me there. No, I am not a fan of Mr. Tarantino. I find him too to be a bit on the verbose side for my tastes.

I sincerely apologize for any disrespect I may have conveyed in my review of "The Gaussian Project," I was just speaking my mind...and my mind does tend to run a bit on the blunt side at times.

You're right, Kimko. It was only the Tarrantino comment that applied to the Capt. The rest was to that other non-constructive nonsense.

Captain KickAss, I didn't think you were being disrespectful, I was only disagreeing with your dialogue assessment...an opinion, of course, to which you are entitled.
