not as good as all the hype
Excellent but underrated film
Dreadfully Boring
Best movie of this year hands down!
Honestly I wonder how a film like this gets made. I cannot imagine that at a casting call with any number of actors (besides one) that this guy was the BEST? While it was being shot could they not tell? It might have been a passable film with another lead. It's hard to tell though because I could not get past the incredibly uninspired deadpan tough-guy thing that the Lead was trying to pull off. It was almost painful to watch. As a matter of fact the film was so bad that I made this account for the sole purpose of warning others not to waste the time/bandwidth/rental required to see this movie. I've read reviews here at IMDb for a while but have never been so moved as to actually NEED to comment.
Some body got ahold of the paint by numbers manual of bad 90's str8 2 video movie. RULE. 1 one the hero must be a cop with a mysterious military pass. RULE. 2 have him be part of some secret police unit. RULE. 3 He should be the lone-wolf rainmaker of the unit. that unit should be corrupt and incompetent. RULE. 4 He should turn against that unit protecting a call-girl or prostitute, or gangster-moll. That's this movie except there's no body count, I don't remember any-one getting killed. mainly because I was to busy trying to figure out what accent he was speaking with. besides the accent he's doing this gruff Clenched-Jaw Clint Eastwood impression. In one scene he mumbles to a kid "Why do you have gold-teeth?" the kid retorts back "My father bought them for me." He then head-butts the poor lad and knocks them out. (WTF!!)(WTF)
I give them credit for trying. It's a really bad movie though. It try's too hard. There are moments of talent showing through in the cinematography but other than that, forget it. I feel really bad for any of the actors who might actually have talent who appeared in this movie, because it doesn't show here. AND, what the hell is up with the lead actors voice? He must be reading all his lines phonetically, which would actually show some talent, but it is just a horrible performance. Did he intend to sound this way? Did he make an effort to sound this way all through the movie? The most interesting thing about this movie, is trying to figure out what the hell this guy is doing with his voice and if he can actually speak English.
A low budget film does not have to make much sense, but if it makes you smile and makes you cry a little, then its done its job, and it deserves a 9 or 10 just like the big releases that come out in theatres. All the actors and actresses in this movie did a wonderful job, even the minor roles did a great job as well. I imagine them all on a big budget film it would be amazing. This josh evans is a good director and should make more films.If you like my taste, and I know you will, have faith in my ratings and comments.-spider*for the record I gave it 6 stars, and still stand by my comment. loved the shootout at the end with the shotgun and helicopter. bad ass
