"Rock" is about a guy on a skateboard who goes to a gas station store in the middle of nowhere. A woman drives to the gas station to fill up her car. The guy leaves the store and the two of them see each other. I don't wanna spoil what happens, but I wonder if these two people know each other. By the way, this film has no dialogue.
It's hard to say if I like it because the first two and a half minutes are kinda boring. The opening shot of the guy skateboarding to the store lasts pretty long and after he goes inside, the shot seems to just keep going. We see that not much is happening outside the store. Sometimes, I enjoy long camera shots, but this opening shot is so-so. You may find it boring. When the two characters see each other, that's when I became a lot more interested. I also really like the dreamy music in the end credits.
The acting and cinematography are pretty good, but I have mixed feelings about the editing. The film is short, but I think it could've been even shorter. Still, I enjoyed the film after the first two and a half minutes. I guess "Rock" is OK. Do I recommend it? I dunno, but I've seen worse short films.
