Review of Bellflower (2011) by Travis H — 25 Aug 2011

Bellflower is the purest form of masculinity that could be put to film. If you took the vehicles and weapons out of Mad Max and threw them into modern society, you'd scratch the surface of the story Bellflower is trying to tell.

It's a love story first and dramatic and action-heavy second. The genuine chemistry amongst the cast is a driving factor, as well. With natural dialogue, realistic relationships that are easy to relate to, spectacular cinematography, and a fantastically disturbing downward spiral that is just as engrossing as it is insane, Bellflower spends just as much time building and delivering a solid and satisfying piece of cinema that it does constructing flamethrowers and muscle cars.
