Forced Redemption - Vancouver Film School (VFS)

[leetbob]

The worst shit ever. PERIOD! It's SUCH a sadness to see you idiots plunk down thirty thousand dollars to create human feces.

[zeKiller2193]

Awesome seriously great job

[mrhschick]

this is awesome:) great job!!!

[leetbob]

"Hey! I KNOW! Light a cigarette and then put it out for no reason to make the sequence incredibly dramatic!" - Director - Jason Callaghan

[AingonAtelia]

@leetbob Don't be such a twat. It's sooo easy to be derisive in anonymity. Like @mrhschick said, you try to do better.

The lighting was in the interview and the crushing was at the crime scene. And don't forget that this a school project, not something from an experienced director.

[Kirynn]

"I hope one day you can find it within yourself to forgive me" - Sorry, but I'll never find it within myself to forgive you for making this shitty short.

[mrhschick]

fuck you... do better and then you can talk shit!

[liverpoolsamurai]

not so good

[PogoFONG]

thanks!

[littleoutrage]

The dialogue is a tad cliche.

[munkygrim]

awesome guys yeah the story was ok not perfect but it is a short so nice

[jackgray]

Extremely well made and directed, but I didn't really like the story. It leaves you feeling empty, and has no balance (granted, it is a short), which can be a little overwhelming for some viewers.

[Medicora]

Wow that was amazing.

If this is correct, the brothers killed the released murderer, and then when the one brother wanted to confess the one you see in the video killed him too, but not before his brother somehow gave his confession to the police.

Very nice twist.

[PogoFONG]

did his brother confess that he and the smoking guy killed the kindergardener? or the murderer?

[habibilamour]

poo

[PixiePink91]

WOW! I got ducky bumps! AMAZING!!!

[jessigrrl]

great video and plot...

i suggest working on your action shots. there were a lot of scenes where nothing was happening, and the camera wasnt moving. maybe panning and zooming in certain uninteresting areas.

good use of reflection also.

great video overall :)

[MrMooge]

Yeah he isn't the one talking. The guy on the tape is his brother.

[WACKYteenLIFE]

THIS is what they need to be showing in the theater one day. Great job. Loved it

[MrGreenGenes]

Fucking Awesome.

[papastiffy]

wow, this is a college right? dammnnn.

[silvanoscherrer]

he may be smoking too xD yeah i realized it at the end xo

[acidsnarl]

WOW

[BOT221]

wow i think this was perfectly done

[EmmaWismyhero]

GREAT. the director has a future!

[najeebqazizada]

Great Story and Camera angles.. but a tip for futher work.. Try to control your breath when you finish a sentence....and show some emotions in voice

[Vifrit]

yes besides that and the pauses in places where it is not needed are the only things that are wrong..other then that GREAT!

[silvanoscherrer]

actualli because of the breathning: he is smoking, while telling that, so...

[bonzo9999]

do all student films overuse voice overs?

[malph05]

that was really well done

[axelgrind]

that was cool

[milikosan]

Great job in this. Love the plot and the twist at the end. Brilliant.

I love the way you presented it too.

[thejoekster]

awesome! very motivational! whoever made that's headed somewhere good in life!

[goofyboots159]

Beautiful movie.

[Britt3333]

That was kinda a random... i got confused... but it was still awesome! HAHAHA! pu

[AingonAtelia]

Nicely done! Great twist at the end. The maker has a real future.

[brantkogasu]

M. Night Shyamalan would be proud!

[OhBaby116]

oh i get it! the guy in there was the his brother!

[W4RW017]

added as favorite :)

[MustRockOn]

Very well done! Excellent story line, keeps the interest and feels real. Great job.

[rrraawwwkk50]

very hemmingway..really reminds me of law and order too. great shots, though some of the dubbing sounds awkward.

awesome work vfs

[Alex06CoSonic]

So that was his brother, with the policeman?

[chellychelle2]

that was deep. intersting :)

[pabloe0168]

amazin

[globexde]

The end music is fantastic. By itself and in the film.

[gmanrman]

Very well done.

I have seen far to many amateur films that suffered from bad acting skills mostly. As mentioned before, well done.

[gaybrigade]

can someone reply to me iff they get it

[endaderoad]

Loved the use of the tape recorder. Really brought out the story well. Disturbing story, very human. well done.

[biaeen]

just do what's right...

[TenshiRebecca]

Amazing

[MsSunshine321]

=/

maybe it wasn't that good in my Opinion because I don't get it.. Oh Well, I know I'll figure it out

[hellomate639]

That was great.

It isn't like one of those art ametuer films that gets you gasping for the air of regular media.

It was actually good...

[millymonsterous]

wow that was amazing. Brilliant.

Well written, shot and edited.

[retsel528]

wait were they twins?

[DemonToad]

Wow...I didn't see that coming.

[MISSElectricOcean]

At first I didn't get it that well, but then I started thinking and it hit me. Amazing.

[eCHotShotRico]

wow that was amazing, the ending was ridiculous!

[hearttaken122603]

really great ending

[OwningYourLifeNow]

fantastic ending.

one of the best ones i've seen from vfs so far.

[dwellingtond]

i watch all of the vancouver film school videos, they're sooo cool. im from vancouver, maybe il go there one day

[kingLOL7]

What was the music used in the credits?

[mrjoecool]

that was amazing. I love these videos!

[FuskaTv]

WOW

It took me two times to get it but it was great!

[suckthispoo]

yeah that was a great ending

[chrissy599122]

I like how it had one of the brother feeling guilty and he end up telling the truth. Then it had the other brother listening to what the brohter said to the cops. The look on the brothers face......Guilt....it will come back and get you............

[BSpitz218]

That ending was amazing. 5/5

[ellenspeakswhale]

i liked the reflection of his face in the blood, and i also liked when the blood was soaking through the towel. cool effects.

[Intrinsica12]

Really great short man... It makes me want to join Vancouver Film School.

[StopTheMadness25]

that was brilliant 5/5

[PhoenixAshOnFire]

oh my god...sweet!

[3m1ly25]

Brilliant. one of the best shorts ive ever seen

[lalalasocks]

Excellent.

[funneemunkee]

i thought this was amazing =]

thank you for a terrific short!

[cowboylyon]

That was awesome. Awesome at blowing dick. Fuck that movie.

[movieposterboy]

Everyones such a fucking dick. That was brilliant. Very well directed some good CLose ups of the blood. I liked the bit with the sheet on the floor and it slowly got blacker. EXCELLENT *****/*****

[ThgIdiotFromSweden]

"sooo... the guy sitting at the table with the interrogator person is the brother that didn't want to be turned in???"

"...i dont get the end... can someone please explaine... (ya, im stupid, i know)"

Damn right you are stupid motherfuckers... This was fucking brilliant!

[robbkatherine]

i love the simplicity. it spoke volumes.

[cacram]

that ending was extremely the type of ending that i would like to see in any short, or film. loved it.

[musichalloffame]

WoW.. As close to a perfect short as I can think of.

[cpaj21]

This is the best of the 10 or so Vancouver School films I have just watched.

Excellent. Gripping to the end.

Keep up the good work.

[angeliumsoar]

sooo... the guy sitting at the table with the interrogator person is the brother that didn't want to be turned in???

[that1guy777]

this is like the tell-tale heart meets frailty

[ricosneakysuave]

...i dont get the end... can someone please explaine... (ya, im stupid, i know)

[shalinc]

Good that you know that..dude ,how soft in the head can u be?it wasn't that complicated..do u even know ur own name??

[KrnBlackWannabe]

NICE! Loved it!

[mexicanprez]

nice like the end.

[mbatchellor]

Good set up. A little long in the middle and the payoff could be clearer but I'd give it a giant thumbs up.

[RDJim]

Agree... very nice set up... I kind of got a flavor that the brother thing was going to be a switch up..but you didn't give it away...just enought to keep us guessing and then hit us with the pay off. I liked it.

[childre24]

very nice, I really liked that. I saw the comment below and kept thinking of what the twist could be, didn't think of that lol ;) good job

[benatural36]

I liked the twist at the end. it was well done

[HustlingVegas]
