First off, "We Make Movies" is goofy: this flick does not take itself serious in the least and that ends up being it's greatest strength throughout. This mockumentary is essentially a story of a rag-tag group of friends (and frenemies) that band together over the course of one summer to shoot a feature for their local film festival... Ridiculousness and hilarity ensue.
Across the board, filmmaker Matt Tory makes sure to imbue each element of his movie with an equal measure of screwball: each character is deliciously wacky in their own way, (Stevphen with a "v" is too good), the references to cinema masterpieces seem so appropriate given the (dare I say) crappy film the characters are making within the movie, the cutaways (while familiar) are used to excellent comedic effect... In every way this is an example of an indie movie that shows how indie movies should be done and done right. The one thing that's clear by the end is that Matt Tory and his team of regular collaborators love film, and that adoration seeps into every pore of this goofy ode to shoestring-budget filmmaking, something all indie creators should be able to appreciate.
