Strong and Moving!
There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
This movie is awesome. It was filmed on a shoestring and you won't notice. There are plot twists and suprised and you will love it
Yeah, what a load of crap! Fooled me with a jargon of "Neo Noir". You don't have to be that stupid to use some saxophone soundtrack to tell people this film is a NOIR, NOIR, NOIR. The private eye does not have to be always in a jam, down and out in L.A. and couldn't afford the rent and got 30 days pay or out eviction notice. Jesus, this film just looked so pathetically pretentious and ridiculous. More like adapted from a lousy comic book or a children's book. A horrible fantasy for the brain dead adults. Absurd screenplay, scenarios and plots. Nothing is right. A complete waste of time. Like watched a lousy poor staged play in a theater. Characters are all comic, over-the-top costumes and make up. A missing person case or several murder cases, who cares! Don't forget to pay your 2017 income tax and your property tax before the deadlines, they are more important than wasting your time and money to watch this stupid Neo Noir film.
First off, I loved the movie. The costuming, sets, cars, all of it was awesome. My husband told me afterward that some of the backgrounds were digital, and I can say that I didn't realize it while watching.As an angst fan, I think this story works very well, especially with Drake's voice narrating and the letter at the end kept it within bounds without "fooling the viewer" in any bad ways.My favorite line is still, "Possibly..." The mystery part was creepy and cool. Rivers was amazing - brilliant acting (and directing) to achieve his part. I loved the hat flip trick.I was impressed with the love scenes, too. They were as different as the women were, but not awkward, and they had chemistry. When Drake said one was lust and the other was more, it was believable. The music was great and the banter between Drake and the women was tightened up perfectly. It flowed well, like a real conversation, without being too rapid-fire.I also liked the cabbie and the building handyman. Tom Konkle, all the cast, and especially Ms. Powell were excellent. Awesome work. I couldn't wait to own a copy and now I plan to get it for friends, too. Don't miss this one!
