Fantastic Film

[wxrwxk · 10/10 · 25 October 2023]

This film is aesthetically stunning and the story keeps you engaged throughout. The colours look amazing and I would highly recommend you check this out. I will 100% watch this again. The cinematography is great and the acting is superb. You really get to feel for the characters and I love how the story pans out. The film is really well made and very professional. The sound is also very good in this film. All these elements put together make a very entertaining watch. Jordan is a fantastic film maker and has proven this over the last two films he has made and I can't wait for the next one to be made.

Thrilling and cleverly written

[seanrigley · 9/10 · 24 October 2023]

I have given this film 9 stars out of 10 and I feel this is justified for its creativity.

The film was gripping from start to finish and well written. Great story line, detailing the characters enough to feel distinguishable. The film is quite direct and easy to follow.

The cast were relevant and played their roles very well. The main characters had really good chemistry together.

Music over some of the scenes added great tension and drama where needed.

I'm looking forward to seeing more from this writer/director. I'll certainly be keeping my eye out for more films from him.

Definitely worth a watch.

Very well made

[hsiddall-63926 · 10/10 · 17 November 2023]

I was lucky enough to watch this film at my college as Jordan came in to premiere it, I really like the final product as the story was very well thought out and the narrative was easy and interesting to follow. If you haven't watched it I recommend you do as having a side characters POV is a interesting story to observe and follow. Another part I really loved was the transitioning between the character and his camera footage as it looked very retro. As well as that you have numerous creative camera techniques which can add meaning and themes throughout the film, Very well put together and I do recommend it to all audiences. MUST WATCH.

Amazing

[hobson-57539 · 10/10 · 24 October 2023]

The screenplay, is a work of art in itself. The dialogue is both sharp and profound, often leaving the audience with much to ponder. The storytelling is perfectly paced, and the narrative unfolds with a mesmerizing ebb and flow, ensuring that the viewer remains captivated from start to finish.

The director's vision is brought to life through masterful cinematography, which showcases the diverse landscapes and the emotional landscapes of the characters. The use of visual metaphors, such as the changing scenery during the road trip, adds depth to the storytelling. The film's uptempo musical score is fitting and collaborates greatly with the editing, enhancing the emotional impact of each scene.

The intensity of the situation with moments of raw, human vulnerability and naivety. The lead character's descent into the criminal underworld, is portrayed with such authenticity that it's impossible not to empathize with his plight, His inner turmoil is palpable.

A nice medium length thriller

[TheRetinalCircus · 10/10 · 7 May 2024]

Well constructed indie thriller with some interesting cinematography and filters, lending a dream like quality to the shots and scenes. The main character has a story arc that unfolds in a way you do not expect and he is ultimately led down a path to his own personal hell. It's quite intense in the latter half but was gripping and kept you guessing right up until the final mournful shot.

Some of the ideas express and ambition far beyond the scope of it's small budget but it maMgws to pull off a fluid and coherent narrative. It can in some regards be seen as a road movie, albeit one that does not end well for the hero.

Highly recommend, was a fond favourite at the Paracinema film festival.

Nothing goes right

[prezzprezz · 10/10 · 27 November 2023]

Really good film lots of short form cuts into quick revealing scenes, many of the actors where very professional and interesting with there own storylines and personalities now I can tell you without spoiling the movie that they all have certain traits and things that make them who they are additionally like his last film there is something which is shown in multiple scenes a joy but turns to a plot twist at the end I think this film is a must watch and is very specific to its genre giving a more atmospheric feeling to the movie unlike most films around this genre in conclusion I think you should whatched this film because it's really good.

So Good!

[francescaepass · 10/10 · 11 November 2023]

I went in not knowing what to expect as I'd never seen a Joran Kane-Lewis film before but 'Nothing goes' pleasantly surprised! From storyline to acting, location and music this film is set up to draw you in, this film grips you from start to finish. Without ruining it for others there are so many dark twists and turns that genuinely leave you feeling shocked and on the edge of your seat wanting to see and understand more. On multiple occasions I was left genuinely in awe at what I'd just seen.

The character development was so interesting and truly unexpected. It's definitely worth a watch! I'm also curious as to if they'll be a part two?!

Suspenseful and gripping

[harry245 · 10/10 · 26 October 2023]

This is a must watch film.

Jordan-Kane Lewis is some writer and director because this film is one of the most interesting and well thought out films I've ever seen. The cinematography was on point, the cinematic sound was very realistic and those beats on the soundtrack were too good. I give this movie a 10/10 because it is a movie that I would pay to watch, and because of that genius ending also.

It was a great choice of actors as their performance was second to none, they really portrayed their characters perfectly and the end product really shows that. Congratulations to Jordan and his team.

Amazing film - definitely a must see!!

[lchaplen-55604 · 10/10 · 24 October 2023]

This film is one the best films I have seen in a long time. From start to finish I was gripped.

'Nothing goes' is shot, edited, directed and produced very well, it grasps you at its very first scene. I especially have to mention the actor Alex, he was a brilliant actor, you got a real feel for the character and what he was going through, it was an emotional journey to say the least.

The film consisted of lots of music which I thought suited the film very well, it brought a different outlook to the film.

My favourite scene must be the collage of scenes when they went on the road trip, it was very interesting as we saw their lives and how they individually dealt with the aftermath of the robbery, it kept me on the edge of my seat wondering how it was all going to end and the ending was something I did not expect at all.

I feel like this film would be good if the director did a sequel in which it could take a insight into the other characters lives like Lexi and Peaches getaway and how Lexi felt leaving Alex. I feel it is good left this way as the director has left the door open for another possible film which also leaves the watchers wonder ... 'what happened to them' and then leads to them wanting more.

I would definitely not hesitate to recommend this film to any of my friends and family, definitely a great watch and I am looking forward to see what the director does next.

Beautifully dark

[lysstaylor-64426 · 10/10 · 24 October 2023]

Beautiful cinematography throughout, the fast paced shots to the up tempo music were a fantastic opening to this intense film. The film explored naivety and corruption in such a clever way, the shots of the scenery in the Scotland montage were captivating, then slowly building up to the intense ending and twist once a new character enters the film. The film was engaging, constantly having you on the edge of your seat, waiting for what happens next and leaving you questioning the actions of the characters. Clever writing throughout, fantastic score and amazing editing, another great offering from Jordan-Kane Lewis and the cast and crew.

Amazing, Suspenseful and a jam-packed thrilling story.

[jamespoulton-92665 · 10/10 · 27 October 2023]

This film is an absolute must see!

The film has a sense of initial dream like and childlike wonder, it portrays young love really well set in the modern industrial landscape of Sheffield. The filming is stunning and some shots are truly breath-taking. Jordan has really knocked this film out of the park, its a true labour of love and is displayed throughout. The story 10/10, the filming 10/10, this film is gripping, funny and great throughout; At no point are you bored or waiting for the next sequence its paced so well. The actors and production team did an amazing job. The final film is truly a masterpiece of independent British cinema.

Well done to Jordan and his team! Can't wait to see more from silent studios!

Wow just Wow

[jaxallison · 10/10 · 24 October 2023]

A masterpiece of writing, acting and visually striking filming which keeps you hooked from the opening titles. I was absolutely blown away by the ending which was totally unexpected and left me and I suspect most of the audience in total shock and awe!! Still thinking and talking about it now. Expect the unexpected and you will still be blown away. A must see. Well done to all involved. Jordan-Kane Lewis and the rest of the cast and crew deserve the highest accolade and I am sure will go on to become mainstream stars in the future. Awaiting the next masterpiece. Nothing less than 10 stars. Well done to all.

Pulls no punches

[ricky-charlesworth · 9/10 · 26 December 2023]

Nothing goes is a brutal, brave and beautifully shot short film. The film is very well acted, and includes a brilliant and engaging score. The filmmaker pays close attention to detail in each and every scene. Despite the brutality, the film is not without both heart and humour.

Any fan of cinema will appreciate the film for its interesting camera work and rich visual style. The film features some great character costume, hair and makeup design/style; worth watching for this alone.

Incredibly accomplished for such a young filmmaker

Sheffielders will enjoy identifying all the various different filming locations.

Great Short Film

[mrqyq · 9/10 · 28 May 2024]

Captivating from start to finish, this short film is a masterclass in tension-building. The director, producer, and writer showcase their extraordinary talent, crafting a narrative that keeps you on the edge of your seat. With every scene, the suspense tightens, leaving audiences breathless. A truly amazing cinematic experience that proves great storytelling knows no bounds. Despite its modest budget, this film shines as a testament to creativity and resourcefulness. The director's vision, coupled with the producer's strategic use of limited resources, delivers a cinematic gem that surpasses expectations. The writer's ingenuity in crafting a compelling story with depth and resonance is commendable. A testament to the power of passion and talent in filmmaking, this production proves that greatness can be achieved regardless of financial constraints. I look forward to see more from this talented director producer and writer.

Absolutely amazing

[aaronneilblake · 10/10 · 24 October 2023]

The film is gripping right from the start, beautiful cinematic work and an amazingly intense and engaging story. The soundtrack is absolutely brilliant and really brings the film together.

It's some of the best cinematography I've seen in a while, with beautiful scenic shots and fast paced action, there's nothing not to like about it.

Some really good acting from Aiden James aswell, the film is a perfect piece of cinema and I really can't wait to see where Jordan-Kane Lewis goes next with future films.

I very highly recommend this film to anyone who hasn't seen it, I guarantee you'll love it.

Very good!

[brandonlewis-45058 · 9/10 · 24 October 2023]

Short, simple, interesting film would watch again, very grown up film so if you're interested in a drama and fast paced/on edge kinda film I would recommend this, tho wouldn't watch with young people in the room.the main character comes across naive to me but of course that's the point of the fil lm that's why a lot of the stuff going on happens because of the main characters naive view and denial of how wicked the world is, I like the visuals of the film looks very colourful and on point, could tell it was on a low budget but that doesn't seem to effect the films story or how engaging the film is actual watched in on my own at my place, one thing I don't like it how it ends and I have no idea what happened to his girlfriend and peach(I think that's his name) kinda left me wanting to know what happens to them perhaps in a second film?
