Myth

source: Myth

Myth has an interesting (if unsettling) premise and is anchored by Nicholas Tucci's performance. Indie movies can be an acquired taste but I was pleasantly surprised this time as I was sucked in by the story. I seem to have thing for movies within a movie. Some of my favorites include Fellini's "8 1/2", Truffaut's "Day for Night," and even Tom DiCillo's "Living in Oblivion." That being said, Myth was right up my alley. I also think the overall aesthetic, including cinematography and production design, are solid. The pace is a bit slow but feels appropriate for the narrative. Overall, a great little indie.

I'm a big fan of the film "You're Next", so I was drawn to this by Nicholas Tucci. But I also love the film within a film conceit and "Myth" does a great job with it. I liked the mix of comedy and thriller/drama, and it takes you on a fun journey.

Nicholas Tucci is this movie, but that's certainly not to take away from Justin Andrew Davis or Sadie Scott. MYTH works in its subtle realism, even when that realism is stretched. Not a thriller, but psychologically engaging and engrossing. Definitely check this one out!

I had no idea what to expect from this movie. I got sucked in and really liked hanging with the characters and wondering what would happen next. It's like an indie Truman show in a way. It's got a vibe that sort of demands that you relax and take whatever you're watching in. It's got a subtle comedy that I really dig! If you're an aspiring artist of any kind, I think you'll love this like I did. Also, THE MUSIC IS SO GOOD!

The mark isn't Alex. It's you ... and me ... and anyone else who believed the high ratings, started watching and became invested in learning the big psychological twist. The twist is, you've been tricked into watching this movie to the end.

It's an odd interesting movie about a making a movie. You'd think it could turn into a thriller, then it seems like a comedy, then a drama. The thing is, it doesn't matter, it's captivating, well directed and the main actors are really good. That's all you need.

A well scripted and filmed psychological thriller. The story and timelines are fun to be part of and the director does a nice job of keeping us guessing. The principal roles of Alex and JP Smith are very well played. I recommend it as a bit of a fun wild ride.

I absolutely loved this movie! The story, directing and acting were all top notch. I really enjoyed the lead male male actor, Nicholas Tucci. He was creepy good (this meant as a compliment). He played bad super well which is not the easiest thing for an actor to do. Don't get me wrong, the other actors were quite good too. I enjoyed the pace of the film. Well done Mr. Director! It never dragged for me. So I give this film a solid thumbs up!!

Myth is an interesting indie film. Nicholas Tucci does a great job at giving off an unsettling vibe as the filmmaker who wants to make a film that follows real-life, but starts to make you question his intentions and what is real and what is for the movie. I really like these movies where there's a film within a film, and I appreciate the throwback feeling as well. While all independent films have their imperfections, I found that Myth was definitely worth a watch for me.
