Judging by the 40-second trailer, Love the Original Way‘s plot was difficult to grasp.
Having consulted the Facebook page, I discovered this was a romantic comedy about a recovering alcoholic woman, Sissy, who turns to online dating.
After a few weird dates with various people, the so-called ‘mentally-unstable’ woman finds out that a man she has been messaging is actually in her drug and alcohol rehab class.
The concept seems a bit dark for a comedy, but online dating aspect is probably quite relatable to a young audience.
I’m suspecting this is a low-budget film – with the echoes in the audio making me wonder if an internal camera microphone was used. Judging by the trailer, there were a few post-production issues too. Resulting in a few premature cuts, and audio drowning out the dialogue. However, the lighting is quite good in the scenes I’ve seen.
I haven’t heard of Keldamuzik before, she plays sissy in Love the Original Way. But she is a recording artist and television personality who has given acting a go, with this project being her first independent film.
It would be interesting to see the entire 15 minutes to judge the storyline and actors, and to see if my suspicions are proved wrong. But for now, it does look like the production issues in this film might distract from the overall concept.
Let me know if you’ve seen Love the Natural Way – perhaps the trailer is just selling it short!
For those of you non-comic-book people out there, basically Wade Wilson aka Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) is a sarcastic, normal dude who has got mutated in some creepy underground experimentation lab.
This is mostly due to the film blatantly making fun of itself, breaking fourth walls frequently, and generally not taking itself seriously at all. It is essentially a mock-hero film. Like the film Vampires Suck – a spoof of

In the most recent TV show Hannibal, the actors had to eat the food because it had to look legit. You can’t exactly skimp on the eating part in a show about a cannibal! But man did the crew work for it! The dietary requirements of the actors must have been an annoyance. Making it look like everyone is eating the same thing, but some being vegetarian or gluten intolerant or vegan… Phwah! For the love of art, right?
If anything, seeing a character sweat without the make-up shifting breaks my suspension of disbelief. In action scenes like in

Anyway, one thing leads to another and Hiro has to get a super team together to catch the bad guy. The rest, I’m sure, you will be able to figure out.
The controversial film we’re all waiting for [here in New Zealand and Australia] is of course, The Interview.
Having worked in a cinema leading up to the release of The Interview, I came to hear of the general LACK of buzz the film was receiving (before it’s release was postponed).
Apparently the major cinema chains pulled out and said they weren’t going to show the film. So the release was cancelled.
If we had the choice, would we bother going to the cinema at all? A loud audience, over-priced popcorn and day-old hotdogs… Why would we? We could just microwave popcorn and sit in the comfort of our beds watching new releases on our tablets.
Very interesting! It just goes to show that ‘they’ can cancel the release of movies, but a viewership is still inevitable, if not more inevitable.
