Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

A coming-of-age film about celebrity worship, love and disillusionment set in the Los Angeles YouTube community. A low budget comedy that feels like it was released straight to a garbage bin and then went to Youtube for free so people didn't have to pay for it at all. As for the acting in general? it wasn't good of course but what should have i expected from a movie called 'Sunset Rock'? It's surely just a waste of time and money in my opinion and one that despite the low budget which could have been really good it basically wastes everything. (0/10)

With the post-post-post-post Andy Warhol world of Everyone being famous for 15 minutes it makes you wonder how anyone can be special when no one really is. The skewering Sunset Rock delivers to this mentality is perfect for what the Hollywood landscape has devolved into. Wilkinson addresses the need for love without commitment as a theme for stardom desired but never really achieved with honed talent. It's funny, it's sweet, your forehead will have palm marks at times and it plays as a valiant effort in trying to find place and purpose in the world of YouTube - fake celebrity, cyber entitlement, and longing to belong and connect. The look of the film far extends the budget it was built on and the cast help stretch every dollar on screen as well. Definitely a heart felt flick for folks jaded by heart felt flicks. If you really wanna get meta, watch it on YouTube - after you buy it of course so Wilkinson's cast & crew can make their next movie.

An excellent low budget indie that skewers the LA youtuber scene. Andrew Lincoln and Megan Baum have great chemistry that serves the slow building romantic tension between them very well. Marc Wilkinson directs his first feature with a subtle hand, and really knows how to draw very real performances from his lead and supporting cast. A great quirky cast of supporting characters rounds out this film. On the film's main page, the budget is estimated at $1,000 and shot one day per week over the course of several months. Marc Wilkinson's deft hand at directing a low budget film is very apparent, as the film has a polished look even with the limitations of being filmed on dslr cameras. I would recommend this film to anyone on the lookout for new up and coming directing talent.
