Watch BALLiSTIC For Free

For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

I am a big fan of ryan connoly and his other work, but this was not as good as id hoped

I know the idea was to make a Hollywood level short, and the stunts and effects go a long way to selling that. But I can honestly say the think that I enjoyed the most was that it really had its own visual style which is really hard come by! I've never seen anything that looks like this. From the colour palette to the unique look of the lenses. Nothing I've ever seen looks like this film. Really ties together the post apocalyptic world with the grime and grit of the grade and lenses, but also pulls a sci-fi feel with the uncharacteristically blue lens flares.

Let me just say that as a filmmaker, I'm always blown away by Ryan Connolly's short films that he makes. When this released, I had high expectations, and within the first 3minutes it exceeded the expectations!Writing and directing was brilliant, the acting was excellent, the cinematography was well shot and each frame looked beautiful, the editing was well done, the score was awesome and the pacing was just incredible!

BALLiSTIC is a heart-pounding, edge of your seat, exhilarating ride from start to finish. Ryan Connolly has outdone himself with this production, and it sure as hell blurred the lines between independent and Hollywood. From BALLiSTIC's amazing stunts to its incredible high end visual effects, this short film is something to just sit back and "Awe" too. Even the comedy at the very end of the film's credits was genius, incredible work from Ryan and his team. The way Ryan can manipulate a story to the point were you feel glued to your seat begging for more is amazing. After this spectacle I feel It's right that the entire Film Riot team get prepared for that feature film everyone has been waiting for *Hint* *Hint*. Well Done Film Riot, well done.
