BRICK

A mystery noir with teenage cats in the middle of a drug ring gone undone, the film is a clever mockery and homage to some of the coolest elements of mystery theatre and teen angst. Great, through and through. Some jump cuts really fuck with the feeling, but when placed where tension already exists, they blow the mind. Some other effects that do the trick, but mostly a bunch of visuals that try to convey the idea more than set the mood. Never noticed the music, which means it was never there, or I was completely immersed in the scene, which I mostly was. Great acting, and some good camera tricks to help out those not-so-fresh-moments for the lesser performances.
