Featured review
Ambitious first-time director does a pretty good job
As with many first films, the director is also the writer is also an actor is also the composer. Given the miniscule budget, there's some good work here, creating strong visuals, and decent performances out of actors you mostly haven't heard of. The art is amazing and disturbing, not at all amateurish, and the soundtrack fits the mood. The writing is flawed, and many people may be turned off by the film's ironic or cliche' plot twists. But, big picture: Sweet Thing was an ambitious project which may have bit off more than it can chew, but it's a powerful film that gives insight to the director's longterm potential.
