I love short stories I really do, there’s just something about them that makes them stand out among feature length movies, you get ones that filmmakers post on YouTube and then you get the ones that are tipped for awards, Safety falls in to the tipped for all the awards this upcoming awards season let me explain why.

America has the highest fatality rate for gun deaths, higher than any other country put together, thousands upon thousands are protesting for gun control across the states, the latest shooting happened in Santa Clarita, Safety is one of these films that make you think about all those school shootings that have happened in the past, such as Parkland and Newtown.

The film not only makes you think about those horrific, tragic and upsetting events, but it captures the survivors and puts you in their shoes and makes you think “what would I do” and it captures that in such an emotional and tear jerking way that can’t even be described, the acting is amazing especially the young children, there are moments that make you think and there are moments that make you wonder, but then there’s the moments that make you wonder…. why? Why is this still happening? why are we letting more and more innocent lives get taken away from us? why aren’t the US government doing any thing about it? These questions will flow through your mind at supersonic speed that by the end of the film your sat there in astonishment.

Now as I said before, this film is tipped to win many awards, and I for one will be rooting for this film, and who knows fingers crossed that there’s an Oscar nomination next year, because let me tell you it needs to win an Oscar because it’s such an important film for our time.

Without a doubt this short gets a 100% rating, its eye opening and very very thought provoking, well done to everyone who worked on such an important movie, do yourself a favour and stop what your doing and go and watch this movie!!! It’s imperative that you do!!!
