Infectious word of mouth says this is a … comedy + horror resulting a wild ride of raucous fun. Cheesy makeup effects, cliche character development, and loads of throwback lines …
The Shootout creates opportunities for filmmakers of color, particularly Asian Americans, and women to demonstrate their talent, gain exposure in the entertainment industry and create positive significant impact on the visibility of Asian and Asian American stories and characters in film and television.

It’s easy for this reviewer to imagine that everyone in an audience wherever DAVID streams is standing and applauding as this film comes to an end. This film can knock a smile off your face in one shot and immediately return it the next. In DAVE, his first, Director Zach Woods’ deft filmmaking can make you feel that you have to see it more than once.

THROUGH THE NIGHT is a bewitching, beguiling cinéma vérité, fly-on-the-wall picture perfect film about the lives of the owners and customers of a grassroots New Rochelle, New York, 24-hour day care center. It’s lensed by a filmmaker who wants to flood pop culture “with beautifully complex portrayals of the lives of working-class women of color” and their families who stoically draw on “titanic strength, love, and selflessness” in the menacing face of racism and sexism and the inequality of American capitalism.

Eighty-four minutes of riveting cinematography. An edge-of-your-seat, bittersweet, smashingly lensed story about the fates of three young promising Cuban ballplayers dreaming of making it big in Major League Baseball in the States. Because of the U.S. embargo against Cuba, however, Cuban ball players like them who want to be signed to big contracts must leave their homes to try to establish residency in The Dominican Republic, Haiti or Costa Rica. This Caribbean rite of passage means players must trek the dangerous Central American migrant trail where bodies and atrocities never stop piling up.
