Grace and Gravity

I have mixed feelings about this film. The concept is unique and for the most part the humor serves the story well. I like both actors but I was a little disappointed with Bruce Marchiano's performance. I think he's a solid actor but his performance in this film felt disingenuous and over-the-top at times.

As they say, 'the devil is in the details' and this holds true for this film. I had a hard time getting past the poor visual effects and sometimes, poor audio. Being that it's a low budget film I genuinely understand the constraints but when essentially the entire film is green screened and in too many shots it's obvious, it's hard to maintain that suspension of disbelief. I have to admit though as a filmmaker I probably have a much more critical eye than most.

I liked the fact that it wasn't a one-sided argument. It was true to life in that sense. The contrasting viewpoints between the American and British was refreshing. I think the extremely low ratings on this film are unfair. Give it a chance and see for yourself.
