03/23/2015 quite a thought provoking film splicing a range of stories with a variety of topics. coming out, domestic violence, rape, drug abuse, alcoholism, drink driving, murder & more. poignant family relationships and undercurrent of the value of life. brilliant acting and I was quite impressed with this little unknown indie film. See more 03/12/2015 Too long, too aggressive, but turns out dull plus disjointed. See more 12/11/2014 Once the movie Toy Soldiers marches into your life, it will never march out. It was meant for Erik Peter Carlson to take the journey, and bring this movie to life. The casting choice for Toy Soldiers was excellent. The movie has fresh new faces of young actors and actresses, playing alongside a few seasoned veterans of the business. Together, they portray the rawness and pure emotional characters of teenagers, family and friends, during one particular evening in the 1980s. The movie immensely captivates as you sink into the midst of the story and you can sense with vigor the emotional wounds of the teenagers and their families, the distress, the sadness, the hope and the love. There are no illusions in this movie, as it plays out in depth what happens that one destined evening translating the good and bad encountered by the cast onto the big screen. This movie definitely is worthy of repetitive viewing. I applaud Erik Peter Carlson and the cast of Toy Soldiers on a journey well-travelled together in order to bring about this wonderful original gem for movie fans.

It deserved the R rating, a bit explicit, but basically it told several interwoven, sometimes intense, personal stories, all experienced on one given day. A day when their roller rink was about to close. Good music, great acting and casting. Worth seeing. You will want to see it again. See more 11/16/2014 Even better the second time See more 11/14/2014 I enjoyed the usage of mystery in the writing. and the way it all tied together. Also liked the visual style. It looked like candy to me. Skittles and rainbows on film - but gritty. Yep that makes zero sense - so watch it if you want to find out what the heck I just said. Also enjoyed watching Chandler Rylko and Kevin Pinassi's acting choices. See more Read all reviews
