Jack Sheehan
Jack Sheehan’s got his fingerprints all over some wild projects lately. First up, “Exit Protocol” (2025) — man, that one’s a rollercoaster. Think government secrets, some next-level tech, and a protagonist who’s barely holding it together as the stakes shoot through the roof. Sheehan doesn’t just play it safe; he dives headfirst into the chaos, dragging the audience with him. There’s a real tension pulsing through every scene, and you can almost taste the paranoia. It’s not your run-of-the-mill action flick—way more layered, with twists that’ll make you question who’s really in control.
Then there’s “Golden Gai,” which flips the mood entirely. Instead of global conspiracies, you’re thrown into the neon-lit maze of Tokyo’s nightlife. This one’s all about the characters, the little moments between drinks and secrets. Sheehan’s got that knack for making you care about people you’ve only known for five minutes. The storytelling’s intimate, kind of gritty, and way more honest than most movies even try to be. Not everything gets tied up with a neat bow, either—it’s messy, like real life.
Don’t forget “The Best Man” (2023), which is just a whole different beast. Weddings, friendships falling apart, people making terrible decisions—honestly, it’s hilarious and painful all at once. Sheehan brings that awkward charm, and you can feel every bit of tension simmering under the surface. The dialogue’s sharp, and you end up rooting for people even when they’re being total idiots. All in all, Sheehan keeps things real, never boring, and always just a bit unpredictable.
