This project, like most other top tenners, has many of the qualities required to fulfill the expectations of Canadian Independent film audiences. None but one, however succeeded to induce a white-nuckled, nail-biting next several months as the world awaits the arrival of WOLF COP!

really brings me back to my days in grade 9 in 1986. this movie has got to win.

This is quite different from your trailer. I kind of like this direction, although it seems to make it more similar to other film concepts.

Doug M.

I am not so sure about this film's direction. Yes, we have an interesting take on the degree to which many youth (and older folks) will sacrifice their own sense of social mores to "belong".

score used in place of the dialogue in this clip rocked - but the use of emotions really did a great job in showing how the geeks really feel trying to fit in with the bad boy

Melissa W.
Posted 6 months ago

Such a relevant film for all the teens going through highschool now and for everyone who's 'grown up'. It captures one of the essential truths about humanity - that we need to feel a sense of belonging, no matter what we have to do to get that feeling. This reminds me of Perks of Being a Wallflower - not that their similar, just the whole coming of age in highschool and doing what you need to to feel liek you belong. They both have that poignant, timeless feel to them and while set in the past are both just as important today. This movie needs to be made because kids and adults everywhere need to see it.

Dawn E.
Posted 6 months ago

Talented group of actors. You can feel AJ's internal struggle between fitting in and doing what's right. I love this character.

Natalie T.

This film demonstrates the importance of belonging at all cost even if it goes against how characters really feel.

Bren W.

There's something very small town, old time, bad boy about it. The music was used well to cover the fact there was no dialogue, and totally fit the scene. LOVE IT

Jessica C.
Posted 6 months ago

This shows a fantastic grasp on the what I am expecting the film to excel into soon. It completely captures the feeling of what it is like to go through what the characters are experiencing, and because it is silent, allows us to look more at their emotions and body language. Beautifully constructed :)

TJ H.
Posted 6 months ago

I like it but some of the bits feel a bit awkward without dialogue, other than the constraints of the mission I really like it!

Kreme T.

This shows a great range of emotions. It really expands on our understanding of these characters, especially Jodi. Looks great!

Astra L.

This is my favourite of your mission videos so far! I like how even though this is set in the 80s this kind of stuff is part or teen culture today, and the lighter part was very interesting!

Andrew Q.

The making of a true badass! Great reaction shots from all of the actors, and the brand of shenanigans they get up to feels just dangerous enough.

Ron K.

The speechless – grade nine clip tells a great after school story of every nerd in a small town when they get together with the “cool” kids. I love the opening scene (yes that’s me sitting on the steps, with nothing to do after school because I have no cool friends), which quickly transitions to “this is how we have fun after school.” I am so watching this movie when it’s made.
Great music selection, really fits the ‘look-out-rebel-out-having-fun’ theme. Along with the great music goes fantastic camera/image setup (e.g. boy in back sawing bike chain, boy in foreground as his look-out). The whole clip is so much fun (not to mention my flashbacks) that I had to watch it again and again. Thanks!
Good luck!

“Wizardess? What's up with that?”
“It's a real word. Look it up.”
“No, I mean, why is she a female?”
“Genetics, I guess.”
“It doesn't make any sense.”
“What? Dude, you're playing a half orc, half centaur . . . that doesn't make any sense.”
“It makes perfect sense. Bloodhoof is super-bodacious. He can bite, punch twice and kick your spine out through your stomach in the same round! He carries an enchanted greatsword and he has a Dire Wolf companion with flawless loyalty!”
“How does that even work, though? An orc getting it on with a centaur lady? That's disgusting!”
“Well, how do you know it wasn't a centaur dude and an orc lady?”
“One – that's even more disgusting. Two, centaurs have too much class to go around banging some nasty orc wench. Three, how the hell does an orc give birth to a centaur?”
“I dunno, dude, orc ladies got some child-bearing hips in that monster manual drawing. And centaurs get really drunk, all the time. It's kind of their thing.”
“STOP. Just stop. We are not having this conversation again.”
“Fine, but you never answered my question.”
“I don't even remember your question.”

I really enjoy watching this project. Ease off on "acting" the story, just be in it.

Sara S.

Funny. As I was watching I kept thinking that I was such a good kid... All in all, good scene. Agreed that the actors need to calm down their on-screen a bit... The difference between theatre and film acting...

Chad M.

The music and angles were good and it had some funny moments but I think the acting was a bit overdone, almost like they were trying to be characters from other movies that are similar.

Thomas L.

I love this peice, when I watch it dialogue just enters my head and I can totally relate to being those kids! They nailed it with life in 1989 as young teenager. But I see how kids of today can't relate with their sanitized life and simulated realities... And to that I say "too bad for you, you missed out!"

Tah the T.
Posted 7 months ago

Yep, certainly fits the bill for most ninth grade boys I've known—doing ridiculous things just for sake of looking cool/tough. Made me chuckle, though.

Lindsay F.

Hahahah. The high bike scene is hilarious! ..and the burning...the things boys will do to look tough.

Lindsay A.
Posted 7 months ago

Ahhh yes grade nine. This was fantastic. Especially when he had to sneak his glasses on when he was on lookout!

Andrew W.
Posted 7 months ago

Love the feel. Totally relatable to me as someone who hit Grade 9 in 1990. Experimenting, causing sh*t and trying to fit in.

Loveval A.

Good job. Really like your story and look forward to seeing more. Grade nine what a crazy time. Good luck!

Kelly B.
Posted 7 months ago

This is really well done. It's raw, and in a nutshell, it's about conformity, it's about fitting in. Some might not think this relates to today's teens (and yes most are likely sitting online a lot of the time) but when this film took place this is what kids did: they got into trouble, they experimented, they pushed the limits. Dominant versus subordinate. Everyone wants to fit in and everyone wants a friend. This video really captures this very well.

charlie e.
Posted 7 months ago

(I'm enjoying the kids who are commenting about how they are teenagers and didn't do shit like this, therefore it's unrealistic. Yeah, because ya'll spend your time inside on the Internet instead.) I really liked this montage and the "good kid being initiated by the bad kid" vibe it had. It reminded me a little bit of Hesher, which I mean as a total compliment. And the branding initiation at the end was great.

Grayson W.
Posted 7 months ago

this felt too "kids do bad things when they are teens" when really its way more chill than that. D&D is cool though (rare nowadays)

Parker W.
Posted 7 months ago

I'm in school right now and I can tell you being a kid isn't actually like this, i think you have the wrong idea. This isn't really going to appeal to the younger generation sorry

Jay R.
Posted 7 months ago

Remember - it is a period peice - 1989. No one person is the authority on what being a kid is like - every single person has their own experience - though we believe the idea of being an outsider looking for an identity is pretty universal.

Colby S.
Posted 7 months ago

But it's 1989 and in a small town.

Andrew L.

Sound track is great! Your Cameraman does a great job as do your actors...If I wasn't voting for my own film I would for yours!

Joe Y.

Nicely done! It nails the thrill of adolescent rebellion and hits on the fact that caving to peer pressure is all just a part of growing up.

Hugh P.

hey kids next time you try and steel a bike, cut the chain not the lock. You have to be there all day cutting the lock

Jay R.

Matt D.

I love to glasses and the havoc that is created. A real sense of fitting as a result of sharing some physical action whether it is illegal, or stupid, or both. I like it. I believe it.

Trish M.
Posted 7 months ago

Some moments worked for me but I found that the acting was overdone somewhat, maybe trying to copy those who have gone before them? I think a more natural approach would have sold it to me better. And maybe a different choice of music.. Definitely some good moments though!

Shafer C.
Posted 7 months ago

Well done. The lack of speech worked great in this. Some engaging moments. I think it could benefit from some different music choices though.

Bari D.

Very good guys - reaching out to the dark side of the School Knights. Bringing back the times while in school. And of course I love the fact of "Fulton" school.

Louise M.

Hilarious!! I thought the comedic elements worked well, but life on the wrong side of tracks only seems to be about doing things wrong. Seemed a little to stereotypical, perhaps? Would have been interesting to see something unexpected in Jodi's life.

Natalia N.

Great soundtrack to your clip. The actors really fit their roles. I couldn't picture anyone else playing these parts now

Thomas P.

Hm, I think this maybe struggled as a bit as a comedy without dialogue, but it was definitely a good showing for you guys. You can definitely see the growth in the characters, and the music makes it a great fun montage!

Gayle B.

This really does take me back to my small town roots and the every weekend parties and various ways we killed time. Even as a girl I can relate.

Richard B.

terrific, but at the same time kind of awkward. I think this is due to the forced comic relief that you have tried to put into a serious subject.

Anna-Angela S.

Denise D.

This is so funny and so poiniant, quite in keeping with what you have shown us so far. I marvel at how you are deveiopping your characters.

Nancy R.

I understand the portrayal of peer pressure. Just not sure that the comedic aspect does justice to a serious topic

Geoff W.
Posted 7 months ago

It kinda feels hyper-restrained; not in a Wes Anderson, symmetrical and carefully plotted kind of way, but in a safe, medium-two shot stable camera flat colour correction subdued joy kind of way. I want to live and experience and enjoy this period of my life; I want to see visual and aural expressions of risks being taken and things going wrong. The puking did that. What if they got caught stealing the candy bar? What if they ran into someone who bitched about the graffiti? what if we felt some danger? the crazy thing I remember about being in grade 9 is that I felt some invincibility, yes, but also the sense that these were the times where what I did defined the rest of my life and if I fucked up, the consequences would be catastrophic. And that reminds me: nothing communicates impending catastrophe like girls. where are the girls? girls and danger, that's what I'm saying. oh yeah, and some cheaper gear to play around with :)

Naomi K.

Lori M.

I can appreciate what you were trying to do with this challenge - and I think you were almost there. I found it a little disjointed, but really liked the "other side of the tracks" angle. Look forward to seeing more!

Semantha M.

yes I think there should be more movies about teen boys as I will never understand what they go though with peer pressure and the "oaths" they abide by

Lindsay B.

Thanks for the compliments! Just wondering why you don't think we deserve the $?

Suvi P.

I don't really know about this one. Obviously well done, but confusing. For me the music didn't quite work but it suited the scene.

Mital G.

You've just contradicted yourself in one sentence;)

Cam L.
Posted 7 months ago

This one was a bit confusing? Didn't seem to match up with the trailer? The use of the no dialogue section wasn't the greatest, but overall the cinematography and your young cast are fantastic!!

Nina F.
Posted 7 months ago

I like the teens. They are good actors. Not sure what they are up to, it seems "no good". It captures the dichotomy of teen boys. Good job.

Parker W.
Posted 7 months ago

I dunno about this one...it doesnt seem to fit at all with your trailer, and I don't think it was a creative use of the no dialogue part. Being a teenager really isn't like this (having been one a few years ago). It just kind of seems like a few old guys trying to be "cool". However, your actors are good and the cinematography is nice, not my favourite scene though, but on the filmmaking side i think it fell short.

Angelo R.
Posted 7 months ago

... you'd have to be a teenager a long time ago .... being a teenager really was like that ... from my experience ...

Jason L.

A little disjointed at times but I like the actors. Also really like the comedic aspect to this mission video.

David F.

"Now what?" said AJ.
"This is kid stuff," said Jodi. "I think we should see if Mr. Sigfusson's ski-doo can still make it across the river."
"But it's not winter —"
"Exactly."

Peer pressure-its alive and real at any age-interesting, what will be the outcome of their quest to perhaps create a Gang-the music was okay.

Carmela V.

Misha G.

Not the most popular opinion, but I don't see a lot of character growth.. as a short, though, this is pretty well done for the length.

well shot and very interesting. The music choise is a little surprising, but i can see a reason to go this way. Teenage movies always seem to be marketable

Donald Y.

Interesting - and typical teenage behaviour. Grade nine is a tough place for teenagers. This expressed it well.

Pretty decent montage scene, although I felt like the mission objective was taken a bit too literally. Maybe a different scene should have been chosen, This one feels like it needs to punctuated with at least a few words imo.

Kyle M.

Hahaha the music is the best part. Nothing like ditching the glasses, smoking and drinking to add a little bad boy to your style.

Clayton P.
Posted 7 months ago

What a fantastic montage! This, of course, is such an important period in every young man's life and this video captures that perfectly. As stupid (in hindsight) as these activities are, they mean so much to teenage kids in a small town.

Its the best when he is riding on the back of the bike arms raised. Fucking awesome!! Who needs words with imagery like that?

That was a pretty fun rebellious coming of age scene. It would have been sweet to have more dungeons and dragons incorporated in it

All the business with the glasses is hilarious. I think that you really lucked out with these kids you cast.

You were able to convey a lot of emotion without using any words. This scene reminds me of Freaks & Geeks in a way.

i liked the music and when it abruptly stopped when the kid started to puke. pretty amusing. i also like the sentimental tone at the end.

I would have liked to have hear more sound effects and foley. Seems like your only strong suite is music (And I wasn't even particularly drawn to it)...

Shaelyn L.

I like that the music helps to really add voice to this scene, but even without it, the actors are all doing amazing jobs :)

Dianne S.

Very good. You managed to bring across the different attitudes and emotions without speech. These guys remind me of my friends in high school.

John K.

Funny. Well done. I think these kids are becoming better actors as this project moves along. Looking forward to the next one

This speachless clip is not as strong as the trailer, mainly because the dialogue in the film has strong importance, but nevertheless great.

Patrick G.

you've got some really good young talent here. Loved the playground scene and the cool bike trick. found the campfire scene didn't really fit with the rest of the moments.

Aiden C.
Posted 7 months ago

Well put together montage. Nice mixture of scenes. One small issue I had was the playground with other kids then the joint smoking scene looked a little off.

Zach L.
Posted 7 months ago

Funny and entertaining scene, but it felt a little bit strange. From watching the trailer, it was weird to see the AJ character committing multiple crimes without much hesitation. Might just be lack of context though.

Kaitlyn M.
Posted 7 months ago

Great montage of shots put together here! Some really great moments that give you insight into the shots.

I'm not sure I would agree with all of our soundtrack choices (but, I'll admit, that might just be personal taste.)

The other thing I'll nit-pick is the transition from the shenanigans to the campfire scene. I love what the campfire scene does and tells, and I think it's really important to this section, but the transition felt quite abrupt.

We shot it over one day, 16 hours I think it was, with much needed help from a few friends in the industry who could wear a number of hats. Very grateful to the crew who have come out to help for every mission we have done!

Zolie G.
Posted 7 months ago

Definitely feels like a big turning point in the film and the characters are well laid-out to make it work. Bit long?

Ally P.

Fun vests. Fun fireworks. Fun throw up. Just overall a good time. I would have liked for it to focus on just the two initial characters though. I felt the addition of the others weakened the connection you were trying to build with AJ and Jodi. But again, great work. I want to be friends with these guys.

Cara S.

The start was very strong, I loved it. Were you forced to make it a certain length, though? It seemed like it went on for longer than it needed to. The first part was so strong, though. Loved it.

Andrew S.

Very entertaining! Brings back fond high-school memories. I like the sense of nostalgia this brings.

ah, grade nine, the cusp year. this is quite funny. yes, I am sure your audience will sympathise with the characters.

Clutch W.

Brilliant montage. Especially love the opening sequence of cuts with the hair, jacket, and rings. Plus the bunny-hop. In the final version I think more could be made of the one kid's ten-speed. Like have them light it on fire and ghost-ride it off a cliff...or off a dock. Great job.

Colin T.

Great job, love the kid with the mini fro.

Laurel L.

Sound editing was a bit rough -- I was distracted by the music stopping and then starting. Acting is amazing. Both of the main characters in this clip are really terrific.

charles w.
Posted 7 months ago

I love it. It's a relationship-building, coming of age scene pure and simple. It's Canada, it's nerd-world, and it's something all of us can relate to, especially those of us who never felt like they fit in with the in-crowd, which is almost all of us.

Brad D.
Posted 7 months ago

Nice job. You really took this one to heart. I thought you conveyed a lot of different beats without any dialogue really effectively. A testament to your actors as well that they were able to say so much with just their faces. The only gag I didn't so much laugh at was him on the lookout without his glasses and then putting them on.. Everything else was awesome. (Loved when they meet up with the friends and the looks on their faces!)

Steven J.
Posted 7 months ago

I actually don't mean to be rude at all when I say this, but I'm actually getting extremely tired of seeing this film at the top. I have tried to be fair and nice the whole competition but I honestly just DONT understand what the appeal for this flick is. I like to be fair and give everything a chance, but Grade Nine and Long Distance have started to bother me every time I see them. Still good luck, but I just don't think this should be a movie... I wouldn't go see it, I probably wouldn't stream it either.

Jay R.
Posted 7 months ago

Hey Steven, I understand. The fact is that this movie is not for everyone. In fact no movie is for everyone. Some will like it some will not. We are just grateful to have an audience and we really appreciate all feed back. Thanks for watching.

Leslie H.
Posted 7 months ago

Excellent scene, these actors are very talented; I would see this movie simply based on the characterization. My only complaint is that it was too long; this was only supposed to 90 seconds. A bit of an unfair advantage when a team doesn't stick to the parameters of the assignment.

Jordan N.
Posted 7 months ago

From watching the speechless trailer and the original trailer you get the idea that the these two different worlds which attend the same school can meet and experience both or multiple ways of life, nerdy gaming side or, loner troublesome jock life. kids should experience different types of cultures and personalities so they can understand why people the way they are or why they choose to do things that they do!

Heather G.

For grade nines to be speechless is quite impressive. I love how they are still getting into mishcief and having fun just like I did when I was in grade nine. I wonder how much the film will truely represent those in grade nine.

Steven H.

I totally relate to AJ in this clip when he's squinting while on the look out. It reminds me of the time when I snuck into an Adult Film Store and was looking at the box art only centimetres away from my face... I've said too much! Great work guys!

Great production value and the characters are so endearing! 90sec? It felt like they wanted to speak, though... I wonder if the restrictions hadn't been placed on this challenge if the sequence would have contained dialogue...

Jay R.
Posted 7 months ago

Hi Patrick, Thanks very much for your positive feedback. The truth of the matter is that our film simply did not have a 90 second sequence that displayed an "A to B sequence" as requested by the mission brief. Two minutes was as short as we could go while still getting across the mini plot arch - and just so you know, every example provided by Cinecoup was over 2mins. -Thanks again

Kelly G.

This was supposed to be 90 seconds, no?

While you guys do good work I'm bothered by the level of artifice involved with this whole shebang. It feels like someone making a movie about dumb shit I did as a kid based off a movie based off a movie about the dumb shit I did as a kid. I like it, I relate to how you mean it, but it feels so heavily produced/constructed that it loses that relatability and begins to feel forced and cliche.

A bit reminiscent of That 70s Show. Well shot and edited. Some great, funny moments - trying to see without glasses. I feel that :) Love the squeaky merry go round. Music design works well for the boys' transformation. Definitely an arc here. Great execution of this mission.

Afzal H.
Posted 7 months ago

I like that you guys used "hands" to tie the beginning of the narrative with the end. The branding with the lighter was important but it could have been more powerful if there was an obvious inciting incident. Though, I have to say you guys did an amazing job of using so many locations at this stage!

Kellie M.

AJ and Kevin's bike ride was my favorite part but the whole thing was great- you fit a lot into a short time and did it well. :)

This is probably the best "coming of age" I have ever seen, and the movie hasn't even been released yet. You guys are doing a great job, Can't wait to see the finished product! The mission said to add fan fiction, but it's hard to add to something that already seems so awesome!

Toby G.

What a compliment! We shot this all last Saturday, a long and gruelling day, which did seem like 10 locations! Many of them are actually in the same place, but it was indeed a day with a lot of driving.

I want to big up the cast - those guys went the whole day without so much as a complaint - over 16 hours, and the last location was a 15 minute hike into nowhere in pitch black. Absolute troopers, you guys are the best.

Really good job! I thought the contrast between their usual characters as geeks and now as bad boys really added depth to the story.

I liked it the lighter bit at the end brought back some old memories

Really great work team as usual. You really captured Grade 9 in 1989. Had me cringing at moments as only memories of high school could! Bring on the rest!
