The main character was interesting and the movie is charming overall. I didn't like the way the story was told with flashbacks. It was predictable and I really wanted a major surprise or two. The acting was good and you learn what a baxter is. I had never heard of one, but all of the characters in the film spoke of baxters like everyone knows what they are. There is a minor twist at the end, but that is the only real surprise and it makes you smile a bit. All things considered, it was a great try for an independent film. I can only hope the actor/director learns from this so that he can improve and keep getting better and better. He shows a lot of potential to make many movies in the future.
