Flashburn (2017)
Flashburn is Far From a Flash in the Pan
Flashburn is an endlessly twisting post-apocalyptic Sci-Fi movie that I can't get enough of. It combines the severity of man-made diseases and the real world impact in movies like Epidemic with some very sharp twists that could rival Shutter Island. The movie keeps you constantly guessing what is real and what is the illusions of our brain trauma addled protagonist Wes Nolan (Sean Patrick Flanerly), who suffers from severe amnesia. His quest for a successful vaccine is endlessly intense with the fate of the entire world resting on his shoulders. The confusion is turned up several notches when Wes is also infected with the pseudo- zombifying disease, Flashburn, and his race against time before he loses his sanity.
Big Bear (2017)
The Brodown of the Summer
This is the movie I've been looking for all summer. Big bear is a indie film written and directed by Joey Kern, the main character of the movie. This fact is readily apparent do to the sharp directing and pacing of the movie. There aren't any real lull moments in Big Bear, it's just a jump from one drunken disaster to the next that the characters have to deal with which makes the movie endlessly entertaining from front to back. The fast pace of the film makes the 87 minute run time feel even shorter, after watching the movie, I was hungry for more of this gang of bros hi-jinks. The acting coming from Joey Kern is on point and jumps from sullen moments of self-pity to fist-shaking righteous fury. It shows the full scope of Joey's acting ability and he takes advantage of every single scene. Despite Joe's (the character) many faults, the audience can't help but to sympathize with his plight. I'd recommend this movie anyone looking to enjoy their afternoon with their friends. You won't regret it.
