Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
As Good As It Gets
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
I thought this movie was done very well. I was very skeptical at first because I don't really watch many independent films but I am glad that I gave this one a shot.Pros: The story was well thought out with a great twist at the end and the music was good. Musicians should be able to appreciate some of the time signatures and melodies.Cons: The only drawback for me was some of the acting. Most of it was good but the ones who were bad were just kinda funny to watch.If you are skeptical about watching indie films...don't be. I highly recommend anyone give this movie a try!
Owner of a failing jewelry store, who also happens to be an ex thief decides to give it ago one more time to save himself.A cut or two above the amateur ranks this film isn't very good with our hero seeming to sit brooding in every other scene and the people around him often playing to the camera. Its as if no one had been on camera before, or worse no one had any idea how to really convey emotions. You never believe any of it for an instant. There is no sense of anything other than lets play dress up. I have no idea how this film got released to DVD, except that there is no underestimating the ability for people to try bad movies, I mean even I picked it up.
I didn't make it till the end so I don't know if I'm aloud to vote or write. But I just couldn't help it. Generally, I don't like movies that start with a scene and then suddenly do the '5 days ago' - thing, I always think, 'you will have to show me a decent movie to make me forget about this scene'. This one didn't!The lines in this movie are the worst I have ever seen/heard. Image is OK, even some action. But the conversations are just so ridiculous this movie really is a waste of time! and what about that lead! OK, if you speak English with a Spanish accent, who cares, but it should be some sort of real English at least. If you can't do that, well speak Spanish man!Well, since I didn't have enough lines to post this, i decided to finish the movie anyway. It got worse. The movie maker obviously thinks his viewers are stupid.This movie is awful, acting was very, very bad!
I was surprised to see no comments on this movie yet but now after trying to watch it I can see why, I feel asleep before the movie was over and this was mid afternoon lol, extremely boring and uneventful movie.The plot isn't original or that entertaining but I am willing to set that aside, it was mostly the poor cast of actors and their lact of any acting abilities that I think really bring the movie down. It probably couldn't have been any worse if they were reading off cue cards the entire time, in some cases they may have been.Anyway It won't be a movie I recommend unless your having trouble sleeping and don't mind suffering through the movie until you go out.
