Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
kel tirados This movie hits all points of the funny bone, Physical humor, clever background shenanigans and good ol fashioned fart jokes. How this movie was thought out and put together was very precise and quite frankly hilarious. The dialog was very clever and reminds me of the little banter that me and my friends have when we are out and about. Being a California native, the humor of this movie really had me laughing. The movie also has a a great message regarding social media and how it has an ironic impact on these underclassmen. Apart from the classic college comedy scenarios, the real gold is what you hear and see in the background! I watched this movie with headphones on and was laughing with all the crowd remarks, B to C roll audio and the little stories that happen unfold in the background. It also has a kendama in it. How cool is that?!?! I really enjoyed this movie and recommend it for a fun laugh with friends. See if you can spot the director Colin Sander Cameo! It would make Alfred Hitchcock Proud!
Jessica V This is a really funny movie! Hilarious! It has a lot of fun jokes, especially if you're into crude humor. I highly recommend it as a pretty good to see for college students! The movie has a good message, which is to not be as involved with technology and constantly look at your phone. Go have the college experience you were meant to have! Sometimes, you just have to put the phone, iPad, whatever it is- down and look at the world around you. Overall, Sanders really put in a lot of work into the film, and with that small of a crew, it amazed me to see how well they pulled it off! Sanders have a lot of potential, and I'm looking forward to see what's next in store for them.
Grady Winn Dean Slater: Resident Adviser was a great surprise. It is easy to assume mediocrity when a movie skips the big screens. Then again, I don't have much experience with these low budget films outside of nature documentaries on netflix. I am not the biggest fan of college themed movies either. Bearing biases, I enjoyed RA for it's creative filming, plot, and easy to watch acting.The awkward moments of college were brought to life quickly. The movie actually hinges on awkward college life and this is a good thing. Growing up is awkward, and especially amidst your peers. Those that critique this aspect of the film are probably still reconciling their own youthful travails. The young cast had to have felt a tinge of red on their cheeks during the filming.The highlight of the plot was when the internet was forcefully shut down, effectively halting access to text messages and facebook. The campus wide panic that resulted was beautiful, and a great tribute to the joys of interacting face to face (awkward or smooth), rather than through the hyped mediums of the 21st of the century (that decrease the stakes of an awkward interaction). The scene of great angst and confusion where the students lacked access to their phones was not exaggerated either.The college students today would react similarly if they found themselves without access to facebook. I have seen my students use it voraciously when given free seconds. The social media snowball is racing downhill to create the next interactive platform into which the young and curious can stare into endlessly. But what about staring deeply into the eyes of your next best friend, or loved one? The writers of RA showed their concern in regards to the direction of everyday interaction on college campuses today. This made the movie for me.The filming separated the movie from other non big screeners. It was tidy, clean and creative. The introductory scene and credits were excellent. 007 movies always kick off with an action scene and seductive opening credits. RA proved similar with less alterations and more props - which was impressive and had you buckling up rather than taking a bathroom break. Christian, Colin, and Scott are hopefully polishing up the plot of their second movie by now. I'm an eager fan.
Corbin-stafford RA was a great movie! I went into the movie thinking it was going to be just another cheesy college partying movie; however, what I found was quite the opposite. The movie portraits many of society's "flaws" such as being secluded to yourself and your cell phone, and not really connecting with the other people around you. This movie shows many great ways to break from the norm and become better functioning humans not ruled by technology and the movie manages to do this while maintaining a light hearted funny atmosphere. I would recommend this movie to anyone, especially kids that are about to face their first year of college. Killer movie!
