Tomasz I don't really know why this rating is so low, probably not so many people have seen this movie already. And others ate scared to watch it, because few people lowered the rating drastically. What I can say movie is not for average mainstream customers. I grow up on David Lynch movies and tittles like Lost Highway, Twin Peaks etc And Windsor Drive is exactly like that, great pictures, amazing psychedelic atmosphere, don't expect typical Hollywood storyline, drop your expectations and just enjoy the movie. Windsor Drive is really great cinema work ! This is my first review on IMDb only because I can't understand this rating. Tom
stevep-41436 I watch a lot of movies, some good, some bad. This may have been the worst I have ever seen. I don't normally write reviews of bad movies, as in many cases it could just be my opinion; but in this case the reviews submitted already are obviously written by the people who produced this nonsense. They are MUCH better at writing fake reviews and biographies (read the director's) than they are at writing a legible screenplay.A good movie should tell a story. This fails to do that on any level. Instead of a story you can expect unnecessary "art shots" (camera gimmicks), music that in many cases fails to match the scene, and awful acting.
ghostrobot915 I watched this movie cold and thought I had downloaded a corrupt file. This movie is insulting in the delivery of its premise to the viewer. There is no subtlety in the delivery of plot points. The kids in my 8th grade theater class had better more innovative directing styles. The music at many points was erratic and completely out of place. There were a couple of actors in this film that sounded like they belonged in a porno, or on cable access. Overall the main actor was convincing as a mentally ill aspiring actor but his portrayal of protagonist was lacking in depth. This is not a normal film and will likely not appeal to majority of potential viewers, but that doesn't mean it is a bad film. It is a bad film because the director is either inexperienced, unorganized or underfunded. The production of an above average film school project with the editing of a 10th grade film assignment and the acting of a 5th grade thanksgiving play does not make a good indie film, even if you dress a few characters up in tweed and have a lot of quick cuts. delete delete delete this film will have you wondering more about its choices in production than its own substance. also, it is labeled as a thriller but the only twist is completely obvious from the get.
Brian Jones Have you ever had one of those moments where you realize that reality is all a blur and what you thought was right isn't even close to it? Well that's how I felt when I sat down and watched the Windsor Drive Premier at Laemmle NoHo 7 Theater in North Hollywood. The debut film by Natalie Bible' co-owner of Absinthe Productions starring Samaire Armstrong, Anna Biani, Kyan DuBois and Tommy O'Reilly, is nothing short of brilliant and though it may confuse and even upset you at times, it's one that had me question what I watched days after viewing. Windsor Drive right out of the gates makes you feel relaxed and ready for everything it has to offer. Then out of the blue it kicks you in the junk and doesn't say sorry. No apologies needed, as I realized how much I wanted a film like this in my life. With the over saturated market flooded with bland characters, overused plots and typical looking camera angles it's hard to find a diamond in the rough. Windsor Drive is more then just a diamond though; it's an adventure, an experience that transforms your senses with every scene. It made me uncomfortable and rethinks my thought process and to be honest I was a little upset.Why?Natalie Bible' did not give me what I expected. She didn't give me a story that was mundane yet familiar. She didn't feed me a bunch of plot holes disrespecting me the viewer to the point of exhaustion. She didn't give me garbage wrapped up in pretty marketing design. Instead Bible's translation of the script was beautifully shot, well edited and an emotional roller-coaster that had me wanting to get in line again and again and again. Though at times Windsor Drive did feel like a long music video because every scene had music and that's usually something I dislike. Yet, realizing how strategic every little detail of Windsor Drive was to Bible' you realize that the music elevated the chaos of Tommy O'Reilly's character River Miller. Tommy O'Reilly's gripping character River Miller is chilling and unnerving at times. O'Reilly's good looks mixed with a voice any woman would die for, any man for that matter, not only elevates the wannabe movie star character but helps keep you dialed into his story. River Miller is one messed up dude and to be honest it's someone all of us at one point of our lives can relate too. We all struggle with identity and wanting to fit in and that's why we become invested with O'Reilly's character. You want to understand his struggle, his pain, and his thoughts while maintaining a safe distance. However, O'Reilly is not the star of Windsor Drive. Windsor Drive is the star. This film can stand-alone and will not and cannot be put into a box. I suppose if there was a genre to file Windsor Drive under it would be Documentary before Thriller/Suspense. Natalie Bible' and crew set out to create the best damn film they could and they did. It's the most honest interpretation of the drive and obsession of making it into a cutthroat business of Hollywood. Thank you for forcing us to take a deep look into what we all continue to strive for; be the popular kid on the block. Beards And Fears Podcast
