Vortex (2001)
Great Film, 10/10
This is a really cool German sci-fi movie. I loved it. The only disappointing thing for me was the length! It is only 50 minutes long, but i enjoyed every minute of it. It had some cool effects and a great ending. I was surprised, seeing as i had never heard of the director!My favourite character was, of course Vincent (the hero) Hardy Kruger did a great job!, but the roll of Carl was also brilliant (Harald Leipnitz).Sadly it was his last ever role. It was, though in my opinion his best!I will be looking out for anything else by Michael Pohl! VERY WELL recommended, especially to anyone who has ever enjoyed a sci-fi movie!! I would also like to say, because of some comments i have read, that this film came out before the matrix, and therefore is not a rip-off of anything!
Ausgestorben (1995)
Best Student Movie I have ever seen!
Once i saw Pohl's First Feature Film, Vortex, i went to see if he had done anything else. I found this, the best student movie i have ever seen! It seems this man had talent from a young age! It has a brilliant storyline and brilliant actors. The surroundings are brilliant. This short-film has it all, good characters well acted out by professionals, and you feel a personal connection with the main character. GREAT!
I would also like to recommend his other film, vortex which is available on amazon.com. It is well worth a look if you enjoyed this, or sci-fi in general! It also, has a good storyline, good actors and a great ending. WELL Recommended!!!
