22 Action News, released in 2010, offers a glimpse into the chaotic world of local news reporting, but it doesn’t quite have the polish or budget of larger productions. The pacing feels a bit uneven, swinging between frantic moments of breaking news and quieter, almost mundane scenes. It’s got this gritty, raw atmosphere that gives it character, despite its unknown director and vague genre classification. The performances are hit-or-miss, some of the actors seem to channel their inner newsroom personalities well, while others feel more like they’re reading lines. There’s something distinctive about it though, like a time capsule of local broadcasting that some collectors might appreciate for its authenticity, if not its execution.
22 Action News is quite rare, with limited distribution and few copies floating around in collector circles. It lacks a formal release on many major platforms, which adds to its mystique among genre enthusiasts. Collectors have shown interest in its unique portrayal of local news, giving it a niche status, especially for those who appreciate a more authentic, albeit rough, filmmaking style.
