Memorable, crazy movie
A Masterpiece!
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Garbage. Who bankrolled this non union junk? Amateurish. Childlike, trash. Horrible acting. How many way can I say useless trash? It Does stink It stinks. I cannot believe someone put their name on this junk. Find another line of work. Stinker. Don't pay a cent for it. They should pay people to sit through this absolute disaster. Is there an actor or qualified person associated with this? How could anyone watch this? Really? It looks and reads like a grammar school project. If anyone payed to see this I pity them. I hope these writers, actors, no talent 'artists' get out of the creative business. Grow up and stop making trash like this fractured fairy tale. I cannot express my disgust with his junk.
Trying to cram so many things into one movie, is always a tough task. You may be able to forgive certain things (though a doll being thrown from a roof top in a "serious" movie should not be one of those things), especially if you consider the budget. But the issue is that someone thought, they could do a Sopranos/Shield/Wire type of movie. And the only things this achieves, is that the viewer will appreciate those shows even more.You can't just take something that is great, kind of copy it and expect to have something great too. You can try obviously, there is no law against it, but most people will call you on that. The movie and the strange narrative is weak to say the least. Effects, settings and "actor" choices are not a top priority. The last 15 minutes that kind of explain what happens up til that point (you could actually just watch those, though you wouldn't be any wiser) is kind of mental in a bad sense. Twists and turns galore, but no quality whatsoever
I can't really rate this any higher than a 1 because there is absolutely nothing good about this movie.Everything from the camera-work to acting to script all feels extremely amateurish, and judging by the film-makers resume they haven't done anything before making this movie, heck there's not even anyone willing to take credits for writing it, I guess they must be that ashamed.Fat Joe albeit he's not a great 'actor' did pretty good in his small role in EMPIRE (2002) so he was the main reason I decided to watch this, but despite having his name on the poster etc he's only in it for one scene with a screen-time of about 20 seconds.He plays a character called Big Ed and although Big Ed appears frequently in the movie, Mike Cintron plays Big Ed for the more part of the film hiding under a big hoodie so that I guess us viewers are not supposed to realise that that is in fact not Fat Joe.But of course we do, despite also being a chubby latino with the same goat tea as Joe has, they act or sound nothing alike.They try to make sense of all that in the end with a ridiculous plot twist of which I won't go into detail as I don't want to spoil anything but yeah, Fat Joe is only in it for one very brief scene.I'm guessing that Fat Joe had a fall out or something with the director and he didn't want to do the movie anymore so they had him replaced but still wanted to be able to sell it as a "Fat Joe movie" so they kept the scene they had shot and replaced him for the rest of the movie and came up with a plot twist there and then.I have no idea who the guy on the poster is but he's not the lead either.Anyway, it's just a bad bad movie that's not worth your time or your money.
