Review of Bellflower (2011) by Jacob M — 23 Mar 2013
The apocalypse is all the rage these days. Before and even after the infamous day of December 21, 2012 there has been a large quantity of apocalyptic films and books and they're all starting to mesh together.
Movies such as Seeking a Friend for the End of the World and books Like Disaster Diaries, they all feel kind of the same, but I will say that this one is not like that. This highly original and interestingly crafted composition on the end of everything really sticks out and holds it's own against the rest of them.
Although the writing wasn't always as cool as it's portrayal, the film still rises above it's occasional flaws with it's stylistic directing and it's incredible final act. It all centers around to friends who are preparing for the impending disaster that will end civilization as we know it.
It Chronicles the situations that these people get into, the people they meet, and the decisions they make. It also brings a bit of a mind game to the table with ideas that may make you second guess what you just watched.
The acting was fine, the directing was great, and this really creates Evan Glodell as a real talent to watch for in the future.
