Indy Buzz Written work is difficult to follow, and lacks a clear structure. What happens next seems random in light of what is known about the characters. There is a clear but limited connection between the original story and main characters.	Rotten Tomato What plot? This is a collection of random actions with nothing tying them together. Everyone who appears on screen is immediately forgettable. Nothing really makes sense in connecting to the original story.	Director Notes
Creativity	Box Office Gold The story is shown in a new and innovative manner. The limited resources available are used in an inventive manner.

Clever and creative shots and angles are used for the majority of the film. Visually interesting and memorable for most of the film.	Indy Buzz Some clever and creative shots and angles are used, but more attention was paid to WHAT was shot than HOW it was shot.	Rotten Tomato Little, if any, attention paid to shot composition. Shots and angles are boring. Viewers don't want to continue watching this film.	Director Notes

Music and sound effects suit the cinematography, character, and mood for the majority of the film. Lighting is frequently suitable to the mood of the scene, and the majority of it is technically well done.	Indy Buzz Dialogue is overpowered by background noise or audio buzz.
