Marky-1

I've watched a fair share of short films and honestly don't enjoy or understand many of them. I recently happened upon "The Syndicate" and I only decided to watch this film because the cousin of a friend of mine is in it, Brian Burke. I must say I was pleasantly surprised and entertained by this film. Funny, entertaining and easy enough for me to comprehend, the boys in "The Syndicate" deliver the goods. Fortunately for the filmmakers the cast portraying this crew is not as inept as they appear on screen. "Jimmy The Gent" was my favorite and I gotta agree with him. Joey does look like an eight year old when he shaves his beard. (Just don't mess with him though)

The previous reviewer pretty much sums up anything else I could say. Job well done.

If you like cop dramas, then you'll love Across the Line, if you know or have been around cops, then you'll see that writer/director Marc Powers really has a grasp on the subject, one based in reality. I'm giving Across the Line three and a half out of four cigars, it's not perfect, but its damn close and I really wanted a bit more story...which I don't often say about short films, it really should have been longer!

Green is a compelling story about two best friends. This movie takes place in Boston. The characters (Scott) played by Marc Powers also director/writer, and the best friend (Stephen) played by Stephen Burke are exceptional. Keep an eye out for the character (Greg) played by Greg Odin. He plays the gun toting, racist, maniac of a friend and I look forward to seeing him in future films.

Director Marc Powers is truly awesome with this first time out production. This movie has a chilling twist that will leave you deeply disturbed.
