Emo The Musical (Short Film) Movie Review

So I just watched Emo The Musical for the fourth time, and I still love this short film.

This short film is far from great, but I think it offers something as an interesting character study. The characters of Ethan and Trinity are played very well, and I really enjoyed the performance from the actors.

The camera work and lighting are done simply but still effectively. They don't try any crazy shots in this film, but it is nonetheless well composed.

The music in this musical is very effective and comedic at times. I believe that it drives the plot forward in a natural way that this entertaining and done well. The transition from song and regular dialogue transitions smoothly.

Now some of the actors are a little stiff, but they did pretty good. No one did a bad job in this film, but only Ethan and Trinity are the best acted. It felt like these actors for the most part were comfortable with their rolls.

The short film is on youtube, and it's entertaining. I would recommend checking it out, because you may just find yourself enjoying it.

final score: 3/5

When the family's fishing business is threatened, Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and her fear of abandoning her parents." The acting was phenomenal, the cinematography was beautiful, and the story was human. The way this film is crafted is nothing short but excellent. I will not that not everything is 100% accurate, but for narrative reasons, I understand the choices they made. The actors have amazing chemistry together. Everything feels natural between them and they all bring their characters to life. No per...
