A documentary about practical effects work in movies.
I like effects work. I'm usually pretty impressed with the work I see, and if anything, I'm usually disappointed with CGI effects. There seems to be a lot more room for error with those.
I didn't like this as much as I should have. I guess it was because it was more of a love letter to the effects house, and not so much focused on the esoteric aspects of making an effect work. There were a few highlights - I really liked seeing the effort that went into a car crash shot in Death Proof.
The rest of it… I like their enthusiasm. They're so in love with the movies they make, it's a little infectious. I know I come across as being picky about movies. I'm specific, but usually even the bad movies, I enjoy the time I spend with them.
Not much to say about it.
