The first must-see film of the year.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
This movie is a perfect example of how bad writing can make good actors look inept. The writing is downright laughable. Most of the lines would make even hardened soap opera fans squirm, I suspect. Despite that, there's a kernel of a decent movie here. Some rewrites and a change in lead actors would have helped a lot.I think the director was aiming for film noir, but ended up with something altogether less. There are a good number of talented mid-level recognizable Hollywood faces in this, but the lead, James Oliver, makes his bad lines even worse. Gil Bellows, William Atherton, D.W. Moffett and a good number of others are severely wasted here. The rest do what they can with a mediocre situation.Slow pacing, muddled and pointless story lines make this a movie to not waste time with.They should have called this movie "Hey, It's a Paycheck."
