A great independent film

The Dirties is an independent film that was released in 2013. It's the debut feature for Matt Johnson, who directed, co-wrote, and stared in the film. It's one of the better indie films that I've seen and is certainly worth your time.Matt and Owen are two friends who are in High school together. They are constantly bullied by a group who go by the name of "The Dirties". Matt and Owen are also huge film fans and are in the school's film club. So they decide to shoot a film about their revenge against The Dirties. That's all that I'm going to say about the plot. It's definitely one of those films that you should go into it without knowing too much. Even the IMDb and Letterboxd synopses, I thought, said too much. But anyways, the story is brilliant. I love films that talk about bullies and show how highschoolers, or whatever, deal with the harassment of the bullies. I don't know if Matt and Owen did really experience bullying in their life, but the way it was portrayed felt so realistic and so well done that I'd bet they did. The characters were great, and they felt lifelike. Thus, we as a viewer, care about them and are interested to see what's going to happen in their lives. The film's writers, Matt Johnson and Mathew Miller, did a splendid job indeed.Matt Johnson and Owen Williams play Matt and Owen in the film. I thought both of them were tremendous. Matt Johnson will probably take all the plaudits but Owen Williams's performance was just as good. The main supporting actress was Krista Madison who played the role of Chrissy, Owen's crush. She was good as well. The acting isn't the main draw of the film though, it's the story and the directing.The Dirties is a found footage film. I still like found footage films, which I know many people aren't. But The Dirties is well done and doesn't have any moments where you're screaming at the screen "DROP THE CAMERA ALREADY YOU IDIOT!". There is a cameraman, probably more, who tags along with Matt and Owen. I personally have a couple of interpretations about the cameramen, but I'll save those for the sake of not spoiling anything. The movie is also littered with references from numerous other films, so if you're a film buff, you might get a kick out of some of them.The soundtrack to The Dirties is also pretty good. There are a couple of songs that play over some scenes that fit perfectly. I read that most of the film's budget went into securing the licenses for the music, but I'd say it was worth it.All in all, The Dirties is a very well done film that shines a new light on bullying. It's evident that Matt Johnson is a very talented young filmmaker who I personally can't wait to see what his future holds for him. A definite recommendation from me.

Great Directional Debut.

THERE ARE NO SPOILERS UNTIL I SAY SO Before I talk about the film, I just want to say I've been so excited for this film since I saw the trailer back in August. It finally came out in theaters and on On Demand. I rented it for $7. I just wanna say that I would've payed extra to see this film in theaters. This film is incredible. This is an incredible directional debut from Matthew Johnson and I would love to see more of him after this. He's in the cast and he is funny and terrifying in scenes. Also, the cast is incredible. Before I get into spoilers, I just want to say please watch this film and also go in without knowing anything about this movie. You will be shocked.

!!!SPOILERS BELOW!!! I just have to talk about the last 10-15 minutes. If you have not seen the movie and are still reading, PLEASE stop. When I saw him taking out the guns and placing them on the table in his house was absolutely terrifying. Also I wanna point out that he is crazy. When there was "someone" filming him even though no one was there made me realize halfway through that he is just insane. When he was putting the cameras up to film the whole shooting was just hard to watch him setting up his attack. When he went into the full hallway, grabbed that guy's hand and said "I'm not holding your hand" while shooting him is that one scene that will stay in my head for awhile. That was one of the most shocking scenes I've seen in a film all year. Also, the ending was perfect. When Matt and Owen were in that room and Matt said "It's just me" shows how much Matt just wanted his friend when he wasn't there for him during his breakdown. Again, this film is incredible. Matthew Johnson, you did a great job.
