Okay, I watched the movie late last night. This is all going from memory, so bear with me.
First of all, Rule #2 was hilarious. I almost fell off my chair laughing (not hard with how tired I was!) It was good to see that you can poke some good fun at yourself in a VERY creative way that adds to the film! That turned a potential film blooper into a part of the movie people will watch over and over.
Next, great work on the special effects! I have to admit, I was duly impressed with what you managed to do. I have to ask how you did the "Trinity kick" gag. Was that morphing software? Overall, your special effects talent really shined in the film, and i you keep applying yourself, I wouldn’t be surprised to see you working for ILM or some other Hollywood effects house someday. (When you’re rich, don’t forget your good buddy On A Roll, eh? X-D )
Now, on to the only part about the film I think could have been better. It was almost too much like "The Matrix". Spoof films are supposed to remind you of the film they spoof, which you did very well. However, think about some of the hilarious cinematic spoofs out there, like Mel Brooks’ "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" which was a parody of the Costner film "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves". Brooks almost duplicated the opening credits, but with his amusing twist. But from then on, except for a vaguely similar plot, the movie didn’t duplicate too much else, at least not for any long period of time. Sometimes they would set up a scene to look like a RH:POT scene, but what was funny was that nothing went as it did in the "serious" film. Your movie was almost a mirror of The Matrix in some spots.
Now, that one little bit of criticism aside, I loved the movie! I’ll most definitely watch it again, and I give it 7 out of 10 stars. It does have it’s own two feet. It’s funny, and it incorporates Star Wars themes into the Matrix. All in all, I really liked this flick!
Keep up the movie-making. Be sure to keep us informed about your future projects.
