Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

Caroline Cloninger I was privileged to attend a recent screening of Assumption of Risk and throughly enjoyed it! I was completely engaged in the story line and keeping up with its twists and turns all the way from first scene to the end. The plot is an interesting mix of suspense, science fiction and thriller. Wade Balance did a great job writing the screen play. The cast Is convincing and believable. Mark Kochanowicz cleverly directed the story on a very limited budget, with few resources. The only downside is a few of the transitions were abrupt and therefore seemed a little choppy. Wade and Mark make a great team. I look forward to seeing more movies by them in the future.

andrea_havens The entire composition of this film was successfully assembled to be very strong. All facets coordinated harmoniously - a tough thing to achieve. Scenes, music, acting, stunts, storyline, editing and all are top quality with plenty of variety and the result is an intensely riveting movie with even a few perfect twists of humor worked in. I especially enjoyed the distinctly different personae of the lead characters, and each of them has a lot of depth, making them feel real. I can relate to each of them. Also surprising is the level of quality achieved on a low budget. We are looking forward to watching it again to better pick up some of the intriguing subtleties, too.

bkanes Okay, maybe I'm biased. But this true-independent thriller is more entertaining than many big budget films I've watched lately. It's got period elements, subtle humor, social significance, nice action that never goes over-the- top. It's smart, and by not ever dumbing down, it keeps the audience glued to the screen. Excellent cast local to the production City (Philadelphia) featuring many recognizable actors from recent TV and block-buster hits. And clearly, writer/director/producer/actor, Mark Kochanowicz, knows his way around a film set. His hands are all over this movie, Nice work.All in all, this is exactly what independent film should be- interesting, fresh, dynamic.

Steven Bishop I've been thinking about how to classify this movie. It's got elements of a thriller, drama with a hint of sci-fi.Certainly entertaining and smart - better that a lot of indies I've watched lately.The lead actor is very believable as a 'damaged' character because of his sister's premature death.Without going into too much. the movie kept my attention and I felt like I wanted to go back and watch parts of it again to get some of the clues that were left along the way.The creators do a good job of not spoon feeding the viewer too much.Overall, I would recommend it to others.
