Best Friends Forever (2013)
It's not a blockbuster, it's about people
This is a fine piece of minimalist art about 2 young people, each trying to get started, who unknowingly end up in the middle of catastrophe. What "action" takes place is integral and necessary to the story. The focus is unerringly and uninterruptedly centered on each of them separately and as they relate to each other. Well acted, well directed, well filmed, well edited. Well worth a watch!
Branded (2012)
Right on
I can't add anything to what is said in the positive reviews, so here's my prescription: Take each of the most negative reviews and negate each sentence. The result will be an accurate critique.
Seriously, this is a fine, funny, imaginative film that addresses a serious flaw in our society. If it does not match your preconception and expectations, maybe you shouldn't have brought them with you. The trailers are advertising; if you believed them, please seek professional help.
Travelling Salesman (2012)
Realistic
If you think the behavior of the characters in this film is unrealistic, then you haven't had much exposure to academics or NSA "patriots". Though the existence of a solution to the specific problem may be fiction, the issues dealt with in this film are all too real. Further, advances in quantum computing may make P=NP practically irrelevant, but would have the same effect on the world as the existence of the solution in the film.
