A solid entry, with strong technical elements, and effective use of comedic juxtaposition.
Great dialogue and rrally enjoyed the interaction between your two detectives.
I'll tell you right now I am not a fan of talking heads in 48 Hours and never have been, which is a shame as there were a couple of very strong performances here of P.I.s piecing together a missing person.
Where the film worked was by elevating the believe it or not storytelling as each potential reason for the disappearance came to the fore. The re-enactments had perfect comic timing to the verbal descriptions we had been parlayed as an audience.
The only issue for me is that the form and structure for how the film unfolded just kept making me think mockumentary .
Having said that your edit, framing, lighting and camerawork were all strong and the audio worked for the type of film here. Do I wish it was a little bit more cinematic? Maybe a focus pull here and there to elevate? Perhaps because there were moments where cinematically it was a little flat.
Genuinely curious how long you spent on the KFC ripoff stand for what was a tiny but highlight gag. A fun film overall with some real strengths in its performances.
Absolutely loved this film's storytelling! The dialogue was excellent and the entire film was jam packed with humor.
I loved the bullet time moments and gave a little chuckle at the drop in camera quality for the spilt second that they happened!
The cutting back to all the different possibilities (and the interview with the fast food guy!) were all pulled off and edited great.
Overall, an extremely enjoyable film, good work!
Well I enjoyed it! Liked the natural comedy and banter between the actors.
Nice take on a different way to do comedy of errors
Awesome performance from the actors. Killed their roles and the chemistry was notable. Really well made
