Better Late Then Never

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Well-written low budget thriller with secrets, character development, and plot unraveling until the very end. The characters develop well as they head to a typical day at work. One of the greatest things about the film is that it keeps you guessing. In general, the plot is something that could happen in real life. The writer took time in developing the characters. The director made sure the pacing fared well as that can be hard to do with a story set in one location. Despite being unknown, the actors do a believable job of acting. This, in my opinion, is one of those rare gems that did not see enough of the light of day probably due to low marketing budgeting as movies with higher marketing budgets and recycled stories enter theaters. Go figure!

Angels Crest is a small budget independent film. It is remarkable insofar that it manages to be successful with so little resources.The storyline by itself is interesting but would not have been able to have been successfully brought to film [especially on a shoestring budget] without superb acting and direction. If one listens to the director's commentary, the film was made with an excellent crew.The two actors carried the whole film on their backs and everything worked as it had to. The gas station sequence comes very close to being a great cinematic scene. The film score was also quite good and the sampled instrumentation wasn't too annoying for me.There are technical problems with the film such as flaws in the DVD transfer and shot to shot colour and lighting differences which money would have solved.I would like to see Mr. Couto get a project with some real money and see what he could come up with.

This was perhaps one of the stupidest movies I'd seen all this year. nearly 50% of it is simply flashbacks Which really didn't explain much at all. I was so confused I had no idea what was going on. The two characters were annoying and unlikable. Near the end I didn't really care what happened I just wanted it to end This movie was not satisfying in anyway The story was like a really bad adaptation of a Stephen King novel thrown in with some cheap cinematography ripped off from Memento. I can't believe this passes for decent entertainment these days. Garbage 2/10

Once again I found myself looking at new releases and seeing a solitary copy of a movie I'd never heard of before. So, who am I, anyway, and who cares what I have to say? I just love movies and I know talent when I see it. I actually only joined IMDB because I wanted to spread the word about this film and a couple of others which I thought deserved more favorable reviews. Angels Crest has two actors in it. For two actors, I thought, they'd better deliver. After the first few minutes of: "Oh, here's another low-budget no-name actor flick", I couldn't stop watching. The story is great, the actors slowly turn into who they actually are (terrific jobs!) and the editing develops along the way. It's better to have a movie edited in such a manner as to not hit one over the head with style - this style actually develops, I say. Bare bones sets (the woods), good story and acting and I wonder why film budgets have to be in the multi-millions to be considered any good by passers by along video store shelves. I say, nevermind the artwork or the hype, pick up a movie like this that you've never heard of, and feel good about the money you've spent renting it. And you'll probably watch it twice. (remember Donnie Darko? I had to see it again....a kind of sleeper, I think). But then, who am I? I just like da movies!
