Partners (2016) Reviews
Excellent police drama that shows a side of that life the public seldom sees.
An interesting and new way to look at police life, from the inside, so to speak, as we follow the two officers through their lives both as policemen (and women) and as ordinary people like ourselves trying to live a "normal" life and what we know is not "normal", meaning police work and all that entails. We see how it effect them as people. We get to know them more as humans than only as officers of the law and see them not as people more removed from life than we are but possibly more engaged because of the swings and rawness of life that they must encounter and process on a daily basis and must learn how to make it a part of their personal lives. Very engaging and interesting for the viewer. And one that provides us with a new way of thinking about the men and women in Blue.
Heart touching film, keeps your attention, real life situation. very well written
This film is definitely worth the watch. From the minute it starts it keeps your attention and is very straight forward written with no questions as to what is happening, although there are a couple of surprises along the way that you don't expect. Tastefully and tactfully written appropriate for family. Only once was a "bad word" used and it was justified to show the hurt an anger of the character. This is not a high action police thriller with a lot of crime and over the top action scenes. Not a lot of violence, although with the story lines, you can definitely tell what these police officers are having to deal with. No blood or horror, just a dramatic story of mostly the personal lives of two police officers that work together and develop a very close personal loving bond. The ending takes you by surprise and melts your heart. Highly recommend this movie.
Touching, Beautiful Movie!!!
Touching, beautiful movie that sheds a new perspective on police officers and the difficult situations they deal with! The writer, Darren W. Conrad, has taken 27 years of his true to life law enforcement career and created a "Balanced" type story. The characters, though fictional, are so real and organic, it makes you want to jump through the screen and just give them hugs. The story is not meant to move extremely fast. It reminds you of a movie you would watch at 2am with a hot cup of tea underneath a blanket. The story moves very fluent though; and the time lapses are easily explained in the story. The acting is A-Game Plus for mainly local and regional talent. 55 Year Veteran Television and Film Actor, Marco St. John, is beyond brilliant in his character. For such a tall and stocky build character actor, Darren W. Conrad truly gives a raw and honest performance as Officer John Walker. He does just enough to keep consistent and real without going over the top in any aspect. I see certain faith bases aspects to the writing. In a time where Police Officers are facing many challenges, it is so refreshing to see such a story. Though these characters are from a small southern town, it still gives you what goes on out of the uniform. I think this film is fantastic for a low budget Indie Film. The Production Design is beautiful, the score is perfectly composed, and the cinematography for a DSLR Shot Film is spot on. 10 STARS!!!
Amazing
This is an excellent film and is well written. It proves that special effects and big stars are not needed to make a great film. Every actor plays their part well. I would certainly be watching this again. If you want to watch a film that is different to what's out there then this is the movie to watch. It's got everything you need for a great night in. None of the scenes are over the top. There are five stories and each one is character driven. The film keeps your attention and deals with real life situations. Highly recommended and look forward to more from the team.
SPOILER ALERT - This Review Contains a SPOILER
Though this movie is quite sad, I enjoyed watching it very much. Darren has extremely well developed characters, who I really cared about as I watched the film. I had my hankie out while watching a few scenes, namely when the mother of a rape victim was recounting the story of her daughter's ordeal. The ending was sad too. After watching this movie, I also gained insight about how police officers sometimes get emotionally involved with the people they are trying to help, and how they bring what happened at work, home with them. It is an excellent film about how a deep bond develops between some police partners. I highly recommend people view this film.
