Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

View MoreThere is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
View MoreStory: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
If you are thinking about watching this movie you should know: there is no script, every scene is just set up for the actors to ad lib their parts; there are no actors, just 3 young kids who apparently have their parents handy cam to play with; there are no production values, everyone just wears their own everyday clothes and the sets are just things that are lying around the area where the filming takes place; finally, the people making this film are not comedians, they are not interesting and they are not funny - some people are naturally funny, like Chelsea Handler, these people are not. Finally I should mention this movie has no plot; i.e. it just meanders around the idea of 3 boys wanting to have sex, which, by itself, is dull as dishwater. In summary, nothing to see here, nothing new, just move along and give this one a pass.
View MoreI can kinda guess why Kevin Smith would highly recommend this movie from his company Smodcast Pictures. But this is just a immature movie with 3 virgin kids that act brash and immature without being all that funny. Kevin Smith calls this movie a comedic genius but it's far from it. Some people might compare this movie to "Superbad" but it reminded me more of the movie "The Virginity Hit" which is another crappy movie that is just crude. Being crude is fine if it's funny in movies in my book but that doesn't apply to this movie. I am impressed when a movie tends to entertain with just literally a shoe string budget but this didn't impress me at all. I guess I didn't get angry at how bad this movie is, but was pretty much bored watching this movie. It's just a crude movie that tries really really hard to be funny with pretty bad actors. In fact I highly doubt these guys will make it to the big screen as one of the main character in other project they might end up in. And that is if they end up in another project and if so it's probably going to be another very very low budget indie movie.3.6/10
View MoreThree high-school students after getting expelled decide to stage a weekend of debauchery that includes, but not limited to, homeless sex, losing virginity, and drinking. It's surprisingly awful in how mindblowingly bad it is.Well if this was Kevin Smith's Smodcast's first film to come out on the label, he should just pack it up now as this movie was 50 shades of awful. It felt like a rejected very long "Whitest Kids You Know" sketch, minus the humor, wit, and good acting of that aforementioned show of course. Don't believe the glowing reviews as they're likely from rabid KS fans, of which, truth be tod,, I used to be one of.
View MoreAnd I can say that with confidence. Bindlestiffs is the funniest movie I've seen in a long time. I don't often laugh out loud at movies by myself, but I did during the first screening. I've since seen it 6 more times. The pure nucleus of the movie is a group of teenagers making a movie with hand-held cameras for very very cheap. And they do it brilliantly. The plot itself is original, three teenagers heading out into the city to experience life, doing crazy stuff along the way. Comparing this movie to Superbad or The Hangover is just wrong, because they are SO different. If anything, the film shows elements from Clerks, Kevin Smith's first independent movie, who later picked up the movie for distribution. The fact that this is an award-winning independent movie just makes me love it more. When I set out to make films, this is essentially the film I'd want to make, Andrew Edison and his buddies just put it all together. The flick is hilarious, in the most literal sense of the word, and deserves at least a theatrical release that's not part of a tour or something. Rent this movie if you can, because it's definitely worth it.
