WOODLAND HILLS, CA, May 20, 2011 (Press-News.org) "Target Practice" tells the "what if?" tale of 5 friends on a fishing trip who discover a hidden training camp for homegrown terrorists and suddenly find themselves waging a bloody battle for survival in the wilderness.
It's also an extremely impressive success story for a low-budget independent film. Helmed by writer/director Richmond Riedel, who has been an editor on such studio films as "The Back-Up Plan," "The Break-Up," and "Friday Night Lights," and TV shows such as "CSI: Miami" and "Burn Notice," the film appeared in 18 film festivals nationwide, won a string of awards, garnered rave reviews, was picked up for distribution by Big Screen Entertainment Group and Warner Elektra, and was released on DVD on Nov 23.
"Politics give way to pure, unadulterated action in Richmond Riedel's impressively mounted 'Target Practice' ... A helming debut engineered with confidence and exceptionally skillful editing ... A relentless pace and astute storytelling ... Pic never lets up ... Extremely tense and executed with great energy." - Robert Koehler, Variety
"Excellent! Tight and exciting throughout ... Kept me on the edge of my seat. Really amazing independent film that deserves a wider audience ... Can't recommend it enough!" - Gregory Plotkin, editor of "Paranormal Activity 2"
"Easily the grittiest and most intense action film of the last decade, far superior than the dreck that Hollywood churns out year after year ... Manages to avoid the cliches and singlehandedly turns the action genre on its ear." - Cary Conley, Rogue Cinema
"Builds to an intense ambush and wrings every ounce of tension it can ... Do yourselves a favor and for once believe the hype. With Target Practice, Riedel has produced a taut, exciting action movie that deserves to be seen. Highly recommended!" - Mike Parkin, Flash Bang Action Movies (U.K.)
"Quick pace and steady momentum ... rounded out with a solid cast, 'Target Practice' is topical, violent and thoughtful." - Will Colby, KillingBox
Action/thriller enthusiasts and fans of independent film are encouraged to view the film on Netflix and post their own reviews/comments.
"Target Practice" is also available on DVD thru Netflix, Amazon, Borders, Best Buy, and many other retailers. Visit http://targetpracticemovie.com/ for more information.
