P's in a Pod (2019)
Clever
Just watched this first season on YouTube. Love the vibe between Pete and Polly. Comedy was a great homage to 90's sitcoms, yet still fresh. Hope this gets picked up!
Where Were You (2019)
Moving indie film
This film is moving fictional account of an arrogant radio host who must make a decision to further his career or further his growth as a human being during the U.S.'s deadliest terrorist attack on 9/11. Makes you think how there must have been thousands of individual stories of those we lost that day.
Spent (2017)
Quirky and different. A good combination.
So here's the thing about SPENT, either you "get it" or you don't. I'll explain. Remember those friends (or perhaps it was you) who didn'tunderstand what everyone was laughing about with SEINFELD, NAPOLEON DYNAMITE or more recently, perhaps PORTLANDIA? The acting is done in a particular way that goes for a certain type of humor, not a Meryl Streep performance of epic proportions.
People who give this one star, couldn't have seen the sam movie. I thought the cinematography alone was great and definitely a part of my scoring card when it comes to films.
Before posting my review, I wanted to check out what others had to say. There are many who "got it", like I did. I saw one reviewer mention the restaurant scene and how obvious it was that the "rat" wasn't real. I thought to myself "wait, wasn't that the gag?" becuase I actually laughed as it worked its way up the aisle. In the end, I enjoyed this film. It was different and quirky. A good combination.
