Tasty Pain
Not my cup of tea what-so-ever. German accented children with kiwi parents? Siamese twins joined at the wrist, one girl, one boy? I thought the Von Trapp family would break into song and dance. Sound was inaudible at times. Dafaq? Was all I could say at the end, nobody could like fairy bread that much! But in saying all that. It wasn't terrible. Just not a stand out. It appears you have your fan club though.
Harvest
A very poor middle section really let the story drag and slip. Sound and lighting notable enough to turn off half way through. Can't remember the ending, maybe that says something.
Jump Start
Sound and exposure issues in this one. Really enjoyed the pace and action. The gags were hilarious if not cheesy, but felt intentional. Good to see an Aoraki student going solo.
What The Neville?
This film is about boring old Neville who is turning 52 and has nothing better to do than spending it with his cat, until he finds a camcorder on a park bench. Him and his friend set off to return the camcorder to Nicky Brick. I really loved the cinematography of this film. It's not hard to film the beautiful landscape of Queenstown. I love the banter with the home owner after they found the bunny suits. Framing was nice. Acting was good. But the not-so-good, the second-half wasn't as beautifully shot and the scooter failing was too quick. The ending was a letdown, as Neville and his friend went through this epic journey to return the camcorder and gave up quite easily when the receptionist denied them. But I'm just being picky. Loved it!
One Brick, Two Brick
Beautifully shot if not overexposed with the full-on sun staring shots. Loved the poem/rhyme narrations and the reveal of why one person was chasing the other. Great job. Finalist contender in my opinion.
Scumblood
Your team intro was epic. I really enjoyed the storyline. It was a basis for a killer adventure. The acting was surprisingly good. I liked the camera movements and angles. Some sound was too loud in places and the later-in-the-day shots were too dark. Look forward to more short films from SUITE MADNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!
We Run The Night
I loved the low light shooting and slow motion effect. I was very excited to see the reverse action of the film and hoped it unfolded like Coldplay's "The Scientist" music video, but it didn't. I enjoyed the end of how they first met, but the story did drag and could of been shorter or more interesting. More of a music video than a short story, but I score it very highly based on visuals and technique.
Do the Knight Thang
I cannot believe this was all put together in 48 hours! It was truly amazing. Seemingly endless resources, endless talent from a team of SIT students? The film had a well-polished feel and high production value. I loved the classic screaming gag in the car and the Mainland taught of the 09.
The Legend of Cerberus
I really enjoyed the humour in some of the dialogue and the fight scene at the end. Great costumes. Great effort. Hope to see more in the coming years.

Closing in Five
Expected big things from Macshane and team. Boy! Did they deliver. Very clever comedy, great one liners, plenty of awkward moments. High production value, best yet. Only gripes I have is the characters didn't interact when they converged and that the conversations had by the crooks in the car weren't to each other but was one from each team of crooks. Only because that confused me when they both turned up. Nothing eluded me that they might be from different cars. But have still scored you highly.
Brush By Life
Writing reviews is like writing school reports. A very well thought out film. Great concept. Simplistic. The idea deserved a higher production value and less straight cut camera work. But great film. Definite finals contender!
