KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
ShellyWins I bought this movie after reading the Jezebel articles about it and the directors. This in one hella good movie. I watch and support a lot of Indie movies and this one is truly special and original as an Indie and as a genre movie. It's exciting to see something well executed and new at the same time. Something that I wish more filmmakers would try to do instead of copying what's already been done many times over. This movie does a remarkable job of mixing gripping scenes with humor creating an unusual fun experience. I did read the reviews before I purchased this film. It was interesting to read all the praise for Nick Prinicipe's job as the villain and the reviews are 100% accurate. He plays a mix of evil and funny and is a joy to watch. But I was surprised at the lack of recognition for the 2 female actresses. First, Catherine Annett, who plays Susan, delivers a subtle and strong performance as a someone who is at the end of her rope trying to survive a night of madness. She has determination, smarts and is willing to fight when necessary. There is a surreal escape scene with Annet that has so much tension and innovative, and the direction and her performance make it feel like a dream. Likewise, Nikki Bohm, who plays the female villain creates a pregnant badass and is totally fun to watch. She's like a mustache twirling evil sexy monster. This is one of the most unique portrayals of a pregnant woman on film. I agree with the review I read that this is a powerful debut movie. I want to see what the directors Dpyx do next.
MarcusMA I saw this at Rock and Shock. It was really good!! I would see it again I think I missed some of the plot because a guy made a lot of noise taking his kids out of the theater. I don't know why anyone brings little kids to horror movies. Anyways, this was awesome. It didn't look cheap at all. We thought it was a short and didn't realize that it was a full length movie. After 20 minutes we looked at each other and were like we're staying. It starts off with really cool credits and was surprised at how many different camera stuff they did. What made it amazing is that this film had a good story and cool characters and the violence and gore is so sudden and fast. The guy who played the bad guy I found out was Chromeskull but here he was scary and funny. His girlfriend was mean and cool and weird. The main actress was believable too and she didn't make stupid choices like so many horror movies. This wasn't really a horror movie but it was real suspenseful so I guess it fits in anyway and it has some gore and it is way intense.
tiernata Nobody Can Cool proved to be a moody and atmospheric suspense thriller. Its color palate cleverly supports a pair of menacing characters, Len and Gigi, who are awaiting the arrival of someone they fear. Before that encounter, they must deal with the unexpected intrusion of a pair of young professionals, a shallow couple with problems of their own. In a remote cabin that each couple expected not to share, trouble begins when the young professionals discover that their bedroom door has been locked. Not willing to accept this situation, Susan, the more assertive and ambitious of the pair, climbs out the bedroom's window and, as the plot develops, into increasing conflict with the looming Len and the aggressive but very pregnant Gigi. If Nick Principe, who plays Len, did not say a word, his presence would bring to the screen echoes of the unhinged villains encountered in comic books. He promises to be the constant source of the misery that Susan and her companion will confront. However, the malice of the expectant Gigi, who speaks with a foreign accent, is not long kept in check. Her pregnancy has not softened her or made her life affirming. In fact, the sequence that establishes her character conveys something grotesque, vulgar or sordid. Such plot elements are woven into a tight and compelling script. The exchanges between the characters are convincing and quickly move the action forward. There are no wasted words. The low-level lighting, in many of the scenes, adds to the film's gritty depiction of the situations of the characters. The very tall, bald, slightly bearded and heavily tattooed Len, in fact, often seem to emerge out of darkness, as if he were an element of a distressing dream. Moreover, every one of the film's agents is in some sort of nightmare or trap. Other stylistic elements contribute to the film's unsettling atmospherics. Attention is often called to the passing of time, as the film's unwinding moves us closer to inevitable catastrophe. One could add to this the nighttime setting, the remoteness of the cabin and the eerie sound effects. What most struck me in the film's first half hour was how well it was put together. Each scene moved seamlessly to the next; the visually jarring elements were intentionally so. The camera's movements were well considered, and the final product seemed the result of careful consideration of how the cuts between shots would contribute both to the revelation of character and to the tensions that were basic to the action. The brevity of some of those early shots, coupled with the red and green colors that dominate each frame, suggests that the film's directors might have wanted to evoke the panels of classic crime comics. But there is no detective or comic book hero to resolve the villainy and mayhem in this film. Nobody Can Cool shows what can be done with a well-developed script and a cast that works together. Highly recommended.
SJpixtster This is a fun fun film. It is a well-written thriller that scores big. A couple go away for a weekend and get themselves into trouble with some criminals hiding out at a cabin. It is a visually dynamic wow of a movie that just doesn't come around that often. A low budget film with no name actors who act the pants off a film with a riveting story that looks and sounds great. I loved the character, Len, one of the criminals, played by Nick Principe. His role is a must see. He has a range of funny and scary as hell. His sidekick, his very pregnant girlfriend, plays her nasty girl routine to the hilt.The good gal, Catherine Annett, brings a first class job playing a woman who is put through the paces, running mascara and all who is no pushover. She does a great job of dishing it out and has some truly unexpected moments with Len. I was fully engaged and gasped out loud in places. There are some shocking images. I'm surprised to find out this is a first film. This is a goody.
