It looked like less than $999 was spent on this film. It is set out in the country. Aside from the white hostage, the acting was fine. The scripted dialogue was poor. The sound editing was the worst ever. However, the story wasn't bad, - just not much happens except talking, headaches, listening to the news and walking around a lot. Pretty blah considering he assinated the president.

very, very low budget film
Everything you know is a lie
Luke King (Isaac Stephen Montgomery) is on the run in LA. He jacks Jerry Wilson (Marshal Glenn ) and drives to a remote desert location. He is wanted for the murder of the President In Washington. He acts as if he has PTSD and is taking medication. Luke King claims he didn't do it. His clone did it. While this sounds like a Bart Simpson defense, the film gets interesting even without Peter Fonda.
The production suffered from its low budget. Not much change in scenery. Not many actors and a poor sound system. I did see both "twists" coming from early on.
Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity. Man handcuffed from 2 days without food or water or needing to use the bathroom. 2 1/2 stars
A late 2020 hidden gem
After watching the preview for Reversion, it was only right that I'd check the film out. The plot is rather simple: a guy is accused of killing the president. The film starts off slow but picks up steam 20 minutes into the film. I'll be honest, I've never heard of any of the actors in the film. However I will say this, each person played their roles exceptionally well. Their is no doubt in my mind that these individuals will find work in Hollywood moving forward. The action is great. The cinematography is beautiful. The writing could use some work but when you're working on a shoestring budget don't expect to get Charlie Kaufman as a writer. I highly recommend this film. I'm a fan of film that get looked over sometimes but this film should be on everyone's radar going into 2021. Lastly, Isaac Stephenson put on a tour de force. Exceptional is all I will say. I wouldn't go out of my way to watch this movie but if you have absolutely nothing to do one day, I would advise you check this out.
