Dust Up (2012)

hyped garbage

A Masterpiece!

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This movie is not laugh-out-loud hilarious, but there's some good fun, and its play with cliché often produces a solid smile and even the occasional chuckle. If it fails to do so with you, you should probably eat more fruit or something, maybe get some fresh air, because there's definitely something wrong with you.I mean, me, personally, I've got some pretty high comedy standards. The highest in the world maybe. I laugh at nothing. In fact, I'm annoyed by most things. Especially the elderly. Or even the weak in general. But also bad comedy. This movie made me smile several times, however, so it should do at least the same for you.Where it definitely fails, in my opinion, is where it tries to mock anti-Native American racism. One of the main characters is a Native American named Mo. Like the fake Native Americans of the western movies this character is supposed to spoof, Mo is played by a white actor, but looks and behaves even more like a bad stereotype.Ultimately, however, the joke lands on Native Americans. I mean, how can it not? Even when you indirectly mockingly mimic a people and their traditions, by mockingly mimicking a mimic, you still mockingly mimic a people and their traditions.This may be funny sometimes, but it can also be hurtful. And whether it's funny or hurtful depends, mostly, on the history and especially the current power relations between the peoples who do the mocking and the people who are being mocked. In this case, both the history and the current socio-economic power relations between white Americans and Native Americans make it, at best, a little insensitive to for members of the former group to mock the latter. Although I'm sure the movie wasn't made with this intention.

It wasn't the best movie but at the same time something to tell your friends about. The director definitely has a funny sense of humor, ie: the part when he gets knocked out by Buzz because he could not perform was apparently a cameo by the director. What drew me to the movie was the cover, with the justice seeking group of people trashing an atc, wielding weapons. It was like mad max or a certain film from a certain director who you will instantly recognize as being similar once you watch the film. The film has plenty of humor, blood and gore and even some empathy, although definitely not from the antagonist, Buzz. Of course in many films, good prevails over evil but not before some collateral damage is taken. It is awkward, funny, troubling, interesting, dry, disgusting, intriguing, foretelling and good all at the same time. This is not a film for the light hearted or children at all. You may lose you lunch.

Absolutely one of the best Indie films I've seen. Humorous and action packed!! I highly recommend giving this Movie a pause of your time to view. If you like grotesque, lizard guy, action, campy one liners, then This movie will be right up your alley. All mentioned makes for a good entertaining movie. I was compelled from the first scene of eye patch scruff dude doing yoga and Indian dude shoots an arrow at him to the last scene where there's a BBQ'd guy skewer and stuck in the ground. The makeup and props were quite impressive for a low budget film. The cast are a perfect match for their roles. Amber Benson plays a great character of weaknesses and gains a pair by the end. Two thumbs up with a little bang bang!!!

A former vigilante who has embraced his peaceful nature comes to the aid of a young mother in trouble with a cannibalistic drug lord.You know, any plot that has "cannibalistic drug lord" in it should automatically be good. And especially in the hands of Troma (which this, sadly, is not). This film is not what I expected, and although I was hesitant to get into it, I really liked the humor.Sure, you can talk about the film's bright, vibrant style and use of color, but the humor... wow. From the hitchhiker and his legendary "jobs" to the "butt dial" joke, and even wondering what might be coming out of the pipes... and even a Hoobastank reference? Weird.I guess if I have to be critical, I would say that eye patches work best when it looks like the person actually wears one. Does the main actor actually wear one? My guess is no, because he seems awkward. However, he also happens to be such a smooth operator that I do not care (though I think having him without a patch might have helped and would be less distracting).
