An indy thriller that doesn't disappoint
This is the sort story-driven piece that Hollywood should take note of. Great pacing and a tight script make this independent stand out from the usual dialogue-chewing hipster pap that dominates the indy film scene.
It's a good little mystery with some JFK conspiracy, action, and suspense thrown in for good measure. The cast has a nice mix of newcomers and veteran character actors that you may recognize...most notably Brad Leland of Friday Night Lights fame as the grizzled host of a conspiracy radio program a la Coast to Coast AM.
It's not perfect, but strong performances, some complex plot twists, and a lot of heart go a long way to make this a strong first entry for writer/director Tony Zavaleta.
Recommended.
