Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

View MoreThis comedy-drama starts with a neat idea: Dave, a 30-year-old slacker (Nick Thune), builds a whimsical cardboard fort in his apartment. Inside the fort, however, lies a seemingly endless labyrinth which traps him, his girlfriend, and numerous other acquaintances. There are plenty of inventive visuals on display, but writer/director Bill Watterson - no relation to the "Calvin and Hobbes" cartoonist - and cowriter Steven Sears don't know where to take them.The film's MVPs are production designers Trisha Gum and John Sumner and art director Jeff White. What they and their team have accomplished, with what was surely a minuscule budget, is spectacular. Room after cardboard room, the sets amaze and delight. But Watterson's staging is uninspired and Jon Boal's cinematography looks cheap. Mostly, however, the script is to blame: the kernel of a good story is lost, like its characters, in a cardboard maze of unfunny gags and the occasional bit of psychobabble. (There's some symbolic blarney about how the maze represents Dave's creative inertia or something.) James Urbaniak, the poor man's Kyle MacLachlan, is always a welcome presence, though his meddling documentarian character grows tiresome. (Blame the script, not the actor.) Adam Busch is likewise game, but the weak material drags him down. The rest of the cast is unremarkable.I genuinely dislike criticizing a film that was clearly a labor of love for its creators, but Dave Made a Maze was so frustrating that I had to come here to lament its wasted potential. Bravo to the art department, though.
View MoreI just saw this (twice!) at a film festival, it really is that good. Combines everything that's both kid and adult simultaneously in one convenient package with imagination, thrills, chills, and laughter. I felt young again with each viewing as I did a lot of paper product projects myself as a kid (from board games, to comic books, to my own sets of work). Adding to the imagination is the hilarity of finding Dave inside the Maze and the many traps and creatures such as the Minotaur. One of my favorite moments is where the people become paper-bag people it's laugh out loud funny! Another good one is Dave's interview where he discusses what brought him to make the maze, including his life in general, which some people could probably relate to, and at the same time makes you wonder what he's going to do when he gets out. I smell a cult following on this one! One of my two favorite movies!
View MoreSummary (no spoilers)This movie is about an artist Dave who has not achieved any success in life ends up building a fort in his living room only to get trapped by the bizarre pitfalls, booby traps and a creature of his own creation.My Review (no spoilers)The plot of this movie was a complete disaster. It had a promising start but ended up really stupid seriously how this could be made into a movie. There was very little adventure, not so funny comedy and last but not the least no horror. None of the actors did a convincing job. If this was there plan of making a movie then they could have added one more genre to the movie called fantasy. The fort he built looked like a dump in his living room and he enters inside to find it like a mansion inside. It also had a predictable and boring ending to the movie. the movie should have been named as "Dave took a dump".My RecommendationNo Stay Away while you can don't do the same mistake that I did.My Rating0/10
View MoreI had been looking forward to "Dave Made a Maze" since seeing its trailer. It looked like a quirky modern version of Cube and Labyrinth, two of my favorite films. It starts off decently enough. The plot and the maze itself are intriguing. I also liked some of its quirkiness and humor. Unfortunately, the film gradually unravels. The story, characters, and dialogue are underdeveloped. Despite only being 80 minutes long, by the third act I was patiently waiting for the film to end. For me, the climax and conclusion didn't come together in a compelling way. It is unfortunate, With a bit more development it could have been something of a cult classic or hidden gem.
