Review of Broken Sky (2006) by Marcusj. — 16 Jan 2010

A valiant effort, no doubt. Jonas & Gerardo have a very passionate romance that just fizzles. And when it does, so does the movie. All and all the actors did a great job. When the dialogue is cut to minimal levels, they have so much more to do and they all seemed to pull it off.

But I was annoyed by the length of the film, the plot which veered off course a few times, and the camera shots which spun around constantly. And without dialogue, we really needed to see the expressions on the characters' faces, which were hard sometimes because of too many poorly lit scenes.

Overall, it was an okay story that seems to have been produced by someone who was trying too hard to prove that he isn't from Hollywood.
