When I had an interest in reviewing Toronah, filmmaker and Wild Wing founder Rick Smiciklas insisted I watch a season of his reality TV show Wingmen before jumping into his feature film debut. I agreed, and watched the first season on iTunes (which I liked despite its forgetful narrative).
Late last year, Canadian indie Toronah snuck into a single theatre in the titled city. The film piqued my curiosity, and I did some more research. I ended up missing out on the film, but I began a dialogue with the film’s director Rick Smiciklas. When I mentioned that I was interested in reviewing his film, Smiciklas suggested that a reality show titled Wingmen would act as a good introduction to Toronah since key players crossover.
