I took my friend with me to the premier of this movie recently and her comments keep getting deleted by, apparently, the makers of the film who are flagging her comments to be deleted by IMDb.
She's being bullied because they don't agree with her feelings about the movie. This is not a fan board, it is a discussion board for people's thoughts about the movie.
I will give mine as well.
I agree that this movie was not very good. It had potential in some ways to be a decent movie, but overall the acting and dialogue killed it. We both agreed that Betsy Rue was the best actor in the bunch, and some people were terribly underused. Robert Lasardo was promoted as being a headliner and he was barely in it, the same with Todd Bridges (though he was very poor in his role.) We did make some jokes about some of the cast being, shall we say, not camera friendly but that was forgivable in light of this being an independent movie. The one part we really did bust out laughing at was when a major character gets some news that causes him to faint. That part was so poorly acted that it was hysterical.
one of my main problems with the movie was that it was so inconsistent in tone and one major character was just all over the place in personality. One minute he's supposed to be a tough guy with a foul mouth and a major jerk attitude, then suddenly he's supposed to be this tender romantic guy with one of the female leads. Some of his dialogue with a backstory caused us to roll our eyes with a "here goes one of these kind of stories again" groan...heard it all before in better movies.
Another laughing point was with the Pleasure Dome strip club. Surely they could have gotten a few more extras to be in this to make it look at least halfway realistic. The patrons consisted of about 5 or so people.
I've seen far worse movies on NetFlix but that's really not saying a whole lot. This is just not a good movie in my opinion and I couldn't recommend it to anyone. We did like some of the camera-work except for the overused drone and some really obvious footage that was pulled from other sources, and a couple of the unknown actors were OK. But on the whole, it wasn't something we liked.
