The element that immediately stood out from the get go was the soundtrack. The music fit the movie like a nice pair of Isotoners. Included are a bunch of original songs composed by Rich Stahle.
'Bullets Over Breakfast' is the type of film that mixes reality with that oh so familiar, and now more and more prevalent friend the special effect. It is a story about three men all striving towards the same goal the waffle. What happens next is a barrage of gunfire and enough action sequences to make even Arnold Schwarzenegger cringe.
Technically the film works on all levels. On one of the many bonus features Ryan Foss discusses some of the problems his crew had experienced with lighting as seen in some of the darker shots. Also the sound was really solid right up until the first line of dialogue. It lacked that richness found from good sound equipment. What more can you expect for under $100 bucks!
We really liked this film. One of our favorite bonus features was when the guys did detailed breakdowns of all the different effects used in the film. While most microcinema filmmakers strive to just make good films, these three take the time to teach their techniques to others.
If you liked 'Bullets Over Breakfast' then you're bound to enjoy Quantum Petshop's next project 'Bullets Over Breakfast 2 (Death Over Dinner). This is film-making at its best! It only goes to show that quality film-making, a good story line and exemplary editing will produce and extraordinary film every time.
