The movie "Angel in Chains" is a flawed effort. The story suffers from simple characters, generic situations, and stereotypical casting. When taken into consideration on a larger scope, the movie stands up slightly better. The second effort from a brand new film school, the film is fairly solid from a technical stand point. Some very beautiful images of Arizona are captured, giving the film an excellent feel. On the downside, the sound is quite lacking. A lively score provided by the group Bailie and the Boys helps in this department a bit, but cannot make up for the poor audio.
Overall, a valiant but flawed effort. Hopefully the next film will surpass this one not only technically but especially in the story areas.
