Audience Member The plot was decent and it could have been made into a hilarious comedy by a more experienced director with professional cast. Unfortunately, amateur acting and directing pretty much ruins it. It was "so bad it's funny" at times but I'm not sure it was intentional. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member "Freezer Burn" is about a thirty year old scientist who falls in love with a minor. To help this relationship become a reality he cyrogenetically freezes himself to wake up fifteen years later. The film, which is meant to be a comedy, wasn't funny in the least. The script lacked depth and concentration. The acting was so poor it reminded me of something that would come out of a high school. When the movie was finished, the audience left feeling like they wasted their time even seeing it. I felt that the movie was a joke and had no purpose ever being released to the public. The film is appropriate for the 13+ crowd. A little strong language here and there but nothing too bad. All in all a major disappointment. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member The plot had some flaws, and the acting wasn't perfect all around, but the two main characters, played by Harriel and Consiglio, were nearly perfect. Interesting mix of humor and drama, with some powerful scenes (the when his ex-wife trashes the lab). Consiglio's humor and excellent timing really stole the short. Cinematography was a little self-conscious, but Hood took some chances on making his shots more interesting. Sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't. Loved the twist with the girl, maybe a *little* overdone with the whole Diamondhead character. The wife/ex-wife was occasionally funny, but the part was overacted and not always believable. I wish the director hadn't felt the need to wrap it all up neatly- a more open ending would have been much more compelling. And I would have taken down a couple characters a notch, like the wife and Diamonhead. They were a little too much like caricatures. So why 3 1/2 stars with so many issues? It was clearly a lower budget film and in addition to bring decently filmed, it had a lot of heart. I give extra points for heart (as opposed to cheese, which makes a film Lise points). Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Even low budget movies can make sense ... and tell a good story. This one succeeds, for the most part. The message, in case it wasn't clear: "Don't wish your life away." Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was made on a very low budget. Although somewhat poorly acted in the beginning, the plot is unique and the dialogue quite funny. I would recommend it to anyone that likes independent films. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member It looked like a school project. It wasn't BAD bad, but it wasn't great either. The main character's wheelchair sidekick was pretty funny though! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
