Here’s a selection of things they’ve said:
"With a sophisticated mise-en-scène and composition, these often hilarious short films are reminiscent of the work of Jacques Tati, but also of the absurdist films of Roy Andersson."
NETWORK FILM EDUCATIE (Netherlands) filmeducatie.nl
"Oh, this is SUCH a good idea for a series of shorts... Aside from anything else this feels like a very ‘now’ project."
WEBCURIOS webcurios.co.uk
"Rather quiet films, in which a lot happens somehow and in which there is above all quite a lot of room for interpretation."
WIHEL.DE www.wihel.de
“Ridiculously funny.”
SCRIPT MAGAZINE www.scriptmag.com
"'The MUTE Series', is back – sharper, funnier, deadpannier than ever."
LBB lbbonline.com
“Hilarious single shot short films that speak volumes without any dialogue.”
LAUGHING SQUID www.laughingsquid.com
"Witty comedy shorts… delivering clever stories with maximum restraint.”
THE AWESOMER theawesomer.com
“Hilarious.. The excellent Andy Lambert completely blew us away with his MUTE Series…. This series has understood what the post-aesthetic treatment of the 21st century is going to be”
ARPA.TV www.arpa.tv
“Lambert’s award-winning anthology returns with 3 more quick yet unforgettable vignettes that imaginatively chronicle the most unexpected moments of everyday life… The newest works are diverse and entertaining – and they all come with their own unexpected twists.”
SNOBBY ROBOT www.snobbyrobot.com
(re: Deliverance) “Brilliantly handled by Lambert and his silent cast. Those contemplating a period of self-isolation will no doubt appreciate this irreverent spin on a life lived off-grid.”
DAVID REVIEWS www.davidreviews.com
“Funny, thoughtful, and surprisingly twisty… The MUTE Series represents the spirit of digital content… The MUTE Series is worthy of respect — and, perhaps, study.”
TUBEFILTER www.tubefilter.com (December 2016 - Top Five Indies Series of 2016)
“The Mute Series has a short but intense wit.”
INDIEPOST www.indiepost.co.kr
"The MUTE Series is a compelling experiment in minimalism…. In very short periods of time, Lambert manages to convey a broad range of emotions while also showing off some beautiful cinematography.”
TUBEFILTER www.tubefilter.com (October 2016)
“MUTE is a selection of short, dialogue free, single shot, no camera movement films which are a clever and often funny bite-size slice of life.”
SHOTS www.shots.net
"Like a modern-day Jacques Tati, Lambert creates his own absurdist universe out of life’s funny moments.”
JOANNA HOGG, Director of ‘The Souvenir’
