The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

I lost count of how many times I bypassed this movie on Amazon Prime. I like Al Snow, but the cover of the film on AP, looked so stupid, I couldn't bring myself to watch it. Bored, scrolling completely through every AP zombie movie listed, twice, and coming up with nothing, I decided that this movie couldn't - in any way - possibly be any worse than the rancid garbage I've seen as of late.Glad I finally gave in and watched it. Al Snow and John Wells work very well together...very believable as partners, but John Wells steals the entire film. Glib, hilarious and a complete smart alleck, he's the type of character you love to watch because he makes a film, fun. I know he's done some serious roles and I'd like to see if he can as easily as he makes it seem, move from one personality, to another.Different story line and just genuinely fun.Give it a go. While not the greatest film ever made, you'll be glad you watched it.

Overtime has the perfect mix of action and comedy. Great production quality for any film, even more impressive for an indie, with solid acting and directing. Overtime embraces a campy tone, knows exactly what it is and delivers, never taking itself too seriously. While light in tone, the film also takes time to develop its characters and I found myself quickly endeared to them. The characters interjecting their personalities in even the most action packed of scenes. My only complaint was that it was over too soon and I was left wanting more, but really that's not a complaint at all. If your looking for a fun movie that will entertain while lifting you spirits this is the one.

I wouldn't normally call myself fortunate for getting to preview a new independent film, but I was recently asked to preview Overtime and "fortunate" is exactly what I am. Overtime, written and directed by Louisville, Ky native Matt Niehoff, sets a new standard for independent films everywhere. The bar has been raised, not only for the courageous and beautifully balanced cinematography, nor for the skillful editing alone, but, just as rare in most indie films, it's been raised for the talent owned by several of these mainly untried cast members.The primary cast has a chemistry that sizzles, giving me the same feeling I had watching the brat pack perform together in the 80s. Thankfully, Overtime is no John Hughs film. Instead, the main cast manages to balance the absurdity in and around them with realism, and thus create believability. John Wells is perfectly cast as the ego-centric Max, and his intentionally over-the-top performance shines when countered with Al Snow's convincingly real portrayal of the more reasonable Raeff. Special kudos go, too, to actress Sebrina Siegel, who managed to bring a greater credibility to the film with her very natural delivery of some very un-natural dialogue, and who's impressive performance and genuine movements helped eliminate the possibility of a "comic book" feeling to the movie.It wouldn't feel right without also crediting the soundtrack chosen to accompany this fun-filled ride. Simply well done. Even the highest budget indie films will have difficulty stretching to reach the bars of Overtime.

I was lucky enough to make it into the standing-room-only premiere of this movie. The energy and hype proceeding this event was well received and warranted. Getting to see the reaction of the standing ovation on the faces of the writer/director team of Brian Cunningham and Matt Neihoff was worth the price of admission alone. A great movie that covers a lot of genres. The perfect blend of drama and comedy,,,gruesome and goofy. The main characters had great on screen chemistry that kept the movie fun,with a solid job from the supporting cast and crew. Great effects and a rocking soundtrack make the icing on the cake, because "F*ck Yea, I love cake!" Instant cult classic. Proof that you don't have to have a huge budget or an L.A. locale to make something entertaining.
