Sweet Pea & Glass
4/5
A tense thriller that explores revenge and sisterhood.
What sets this short thriller apart is its sharp wit and dark humor, which balances the intensity of the plot with moments of levity. The comical underbelly of the story keeps the viewers entertained and captivated at all times. And despite the short running time, the characters are well developed, with an excellent characterisation that makes them intriguing and compelling.
The production values of the movie are top-notch with fantastic production design and some visually stunning cinematography that adds depth and texture to the story. Furthermore, the acting is great, with both D’Addario and Batista delivering believable performances that help to bring the characters to life in a way that is both relatable and compelling.
Overall, ‘Sweet Pea & Glass’ is a great short thriller that leaves the viewers wanting more. Daniel Villavicencio has done an excellent job with this project, and it would be great to see this film turned into a full-length feature. It will appeal to fans of thrilling and stylish crime dramas that don’t shy away from exploring complex human relationships and emotions.
