on Noise Control Beta – In a world where to perceive a forbidden noise is the highest crime, a cop whose wife starts hearing it must find its origin in the desperate attempt to save her.

Thanks everyone, the problem is that the gouvernement says the noise doesn't even exist - that people who 'hears it' are sick and will become dangerous. That's why I'm not 100% ?convinced "with the rare ability to hear".
on An unemployed dropout fakes the paperwork to become a family physician. When her patients start to see through the lie, she decides to use surgery to silence them.

I have no problem with a villain as protagonist. Besides, the problem is that he has no serious?obstacles, only 'solutions'. problem: unemployed/solution: fake papers; problem:patients upset/solution: killing them. This movie is a win win win... logline should focus on a…
on Born in the 70’s to a young and offbeat anti-war activist, a roubled woman recounts her spiraling descent into adulthood while baking an apple pie.

"her spiraling descent into adulthood": in my opinion the movie is hidden in this un-undertandable words. What happens in the movie? I like the idea that everything is a flashback while the main character is?baking an apple pie but this…
on PALEO When her boss at a wild game restaurant turns into a Neanderthal, a vegetarian waitress must solve the puzzle of evolution to escape with her life.

This is a good concept in my opinion. It's not clear why the waitress should help his boss (can't she just run away?) - anyway I think there are many ways to upgrade this logline, it just needs some work.…
on When the public ignores evidence of violent rape by a demagogic president, a reporter convinces MIT nanobot engineers to help her surveil him, certain that airing his private moments will destroy him, but also naive to the many dangers of the plan.

The idea is interesting but I think the movie is 'outside' the logline. I mean, the real movie is about what happens after the reporter starts the?surveillance and the logline should capture that rahter than 'convincing the mit scientists of…
on When an Iraq War vet loses both his house and wife, he resolves to use his training to take out the CEO of a major NYC investment bank whom he blames for his losses and whose security detail is mostly composed of other vets.

Hello, I keep an eye on this website and so I read many many loglines. I must say this one is faaaaaar better than the average! I think it could be improuved on the level of the words (too many…
on An esoteric detective is recruited to find a pregnant woman?s killer, and a struggling rock and roll band holds the key to the mystery.

I personally have the feeling of a random sequence of unconnected elements... an esoteric detective, a murdered pregnant woman, a rnr band... This could be a?masterpiece (it makes me think about the novel Inherent Vice - I haven't seen the…
on In tradition of the French new wave films of the 60s, a young tap-gamer struggles with success and relationship strain after a conglomerate buys his game, while the conglomerate chairman frames an African American trash-man for his recent statuiatory rape lawsuit.

I can't see how the differents parts create a whole... a game, a rape, an african american trash man, french new wave, conglomeration... this could be genius but as a logline I don't understand anything at all sorry.
on Geeart1

Hello, I personally like when a logline can describe the basic plot of the movie in terms of main character's goal/obstacles. "the world?s most distructive problems in his mind": first, I'd like to know what specific problem or I don't…
on When an mysterious artifact appears on the black market, a pair of dealers must outsmart the criminals of the city’s underworld in order to attain it.

Anytime I see the word "mysterious" in a logline, I see a problem.
on When the wildest gunslinger in the west is wanted dead, an underemployed ranch-hand sets out to capture him alive for the biggest cash reward.

If the gunslinger is wanted "dead", why there would be a bigger reward for him "alive"? The usual is "dead or alive", same reward, I think.
on When the memories of his deceased family are stolen by a corrupt government official, a former extractor must obtain material from a highly secure cloud service for human memory to have them restored.

In my opinion the inciting incident is the stealing of the memories of his daughter and wife. I like this, it's a clever variation from 'kidnapped wife/daughter'. This is what push it to action: a classic (but original) blackmail. And…
on A hacker must shut down the latest social media craze, The MindNet, after illegally connecting his mind with network?s creator and discovering a plan to use the MindNet as a means of population control.

I like the concept! I think the?problem is that we don't know what we will see in the movie... a physical heist at the MinNet server facility? people discussing hacking strategies on their keybords? I don't know if this is…
on Celebrity hairdresser was falsely accused for kidnapping a secret son of the mayor of New York and he has to deliver him to a real kidnappers to save the life of his mother because of her large gambling debt.

Hello, I think you have some good elements in you story but in my opinion you didn't selected them properly and built the logline with the elements in the ?proper order. The goal appears to be saving the main character's…
on An Introvert, fed up with his mediocre life, runs off and ends up in a twisted experiment, his girlfriend must then find and save him from his own brainwashed mind before he is lost forever.

Hello, in my opinion you should decide if it's the story of the introverted guy or his girlfriend and write the logline from his/her point of view. Your logline start with the introverted boy as main character but in the…
on A fanatical sports fan inherits a huge fortune from a previously unknown uncle. However, the estate includes ownership of his own teams hated local rivals and the proviso that he will only inherit if he takes control of them and leads them to the best season in their history.

Hello, there's something good in you logline. I think it's the possibilty of a inner jurney for the main character, the monomaniac?fan who must learn the true beauty of sport. Besides, I can't see what there will be actually in…
on When his teenage son is murdered, a detective hesitated to bring the presumed killer to justice, after learning about their secret love affair.

Hello, here's my rule of thumb for loglines: never build a logline about a choice or a hesitation. (I personally don't like the loglines that doesn't respect this rule. The reason is that the movie seems to not move forewards,…
on As she repeatedly travels back to a Georgia in 1815 from Chicago in 2016, a black woman must figure out how to stop time traveling before a ruthless plantation owner ends up killing her.

I like the concept. You should check this movie about two brothers?who are sent back in time to 1780 Antilles as slaves. http://www.allocine.fr/film/fichefilm_gen_cfilm=182097.html This movie presents a clear inciting event: when they tear up the 'freedom?document' inherited by their grand…
on When a renowned, but greedy publisher, plots a murder to own a would-be hit manuscript,his bitter deputy plots two, but both meet their match in the aspiring author-who happens to be a WWII vet.

Hello, I'm really lost with this logline, I miss a clear main character, a clear goal, and a strong concept. I can't be sure about the tone either, is it a black comedy (everyone wants to kill everybody else) or…
on A dangerous serial killer is the only survivor in a plane crash, when she was transported to a different prison, she is rescued by tibetans from remote high mountain village. After being treated from her injuries she faces a choice to leave the village or to merry 7 brothers of a family who took care of her, according to their matriarchal tradition.

I personally don't like loglines that focus on a choice. A choice is a matter of just?one?scene (or of a boring movie). I'd like to see more clearly a goal and what opposes to it.
