TRAVIS G I just watched the movie SOLD OUT. The movie has a lot of strong scenes that I enjoyed watching and which were very comical. The movie is directed by Tim Dahlseid and written by Susan Brightbill. This is a thematic movie which takes a good look at pursuing your dream and also self discovery. The movie has good dialogue and drama and scenes of friendship and camaraderie. It was also shot in a very cool way with many scenes that make you think deeply. The storyline pulls you in many directions as you're watching this movie. I thought all the lead actors all had great onscreen chemistry– they were great together. The sets are great for an indie movie. I look forward to what this director and filmmaker has coming up next! Check this movie out! You’ll remember it! Great themes and good acting and lots of drama! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/25 Full Review Bob R "Sold Out" is a triumph in music-based cinema. Tim Dahlseid's direction, combined with exceptional cinematography and stellar performances, creates a film that strikes a chord with its audience on a deeply emotional level. The storyline weaves a captivating tale of redemption and self-discovery, as a talented female talent scout mentors a struggling construction worker on his journey to become a singer/songwriter. The narrative unfolds with genuine heart, resonating deeply with its audience. It's a story of hope, of second chances, and of the unbreakable human spirit. For anyone who loves music, believes in the power of transformation, or simply enjoys a brilliantly crafted film, "Sold Out" is an absolute must-see. This is a cinematic experience that will leave you humming its tunes and reflecting on its powerful message long after the final note. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/14/23 Full Review J. H Man, oh man! "SOLD OUT" is the rhythmic heartbeat of the American Dream set to the passionate tempo of raw musical talent. It's the wild howl of the lone wolf on a moonlit night and the gentle whisper of dreams deferred, all woven into a tapestry of melodies and the age-old struggle for recognition. There's a spirit in this film, much like the unyielding spirit of the open road. A female talent scout, with an ear as finely tuned as a ‘56 Chevy radio, hears not just the voice, but the soul of a man, buried beneath the debris of construction sites and the weight of everyday existence. This ain't just a story of fame, fortune, or the shimmering lights of the stage; it's a tale of rebirth, of the phoenix that rises from the sawdust, with a guitar in hand and a song in his heart. The film dances, swings, and sways to the unpredictable beat of life. Our songbird from the construction site is everyman, everywoman, anyone who's ever felt the blues, but also the intoxicating rush of a dream being realized. Their journey together, mentor and mentee, is a duet of hopes and fears, set against the vast backdrop of city skylines and smoky bars, echoing with the cadence of Kerouac's own adventures. "SOLD OUT" isn't just another tale in the vast ocean of music dramas; it's a lyrical journey of self-discovery, of finding one's true calling amidst the cacophony of life. It's a symphony of ambition, resilience, and the eternal quest for something more. The rawness, the honesty, the sheer poetic beauty of it all resonates with anyone who's ever dared to dream beyond their station. To the makers of "SOLD OUT", I say, you've captured the very essence of the beat generation and translated it to the world of song. This film is jazz, rock 'n' roll, blues, and gospel, all rolled into a cinematic masterpiece. Bravo! Here's to "SOLD OUT", a movie that reminds us that even when life's notes seem discordant, there's always a song waiting to be sung, if only we dare to listen. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/14/23 Full Review Ruby G I can't say enough good things about this movie. From the actors, to the music and the storytelling... it's a must see. It has SO much heart and the lead guy... well, ladies, you are in for a treat. ;) Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/13/22 Full Review Susan B A heartfelt, moving film with flawed characters, big dreams and incredible music. Pretty much loved everything about it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/12/22 Full Review Kristina M I ran across this indie film late one night and was pleasently surprised with what I had stumbled into. Not your typical romance comedy love story but defeniately a story about hope and love. The music is what actually struck me. All of the songs featured are great and I would love to find them available to download. The acting is not bad, better than you would expect from an indie film. I like that we are lead to believe that she is there to save him yet he also saves her. All in all, I give it two thumbs up and a score of nine of out ten. I'm glad a ran across this gem of a movie and recommend it. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/29/22 Full Review Read all reviews
