Everything goes well for Larry!

Warning: Spoilers
I watched this movie and it was not too terrible, but at the same time it was not exactly all that good either. While watching this thing I kind of new the direction it was going and I was correct, but man, everything turns out good for Larry! I wish I could fantasize something and then learn something and then be showered with money, rewards and a very lovely caring lady in the end!

Meet Larry, as the story begins. He is having a tough time as he is desperate for money, his scholarship has been revoked and he is behind on rent! Well, he tries to pawn a watch and gets ripped off by a professor doing a little side hustle. So Larry decides to kill the man and steal his money! He does, but does he? He then meets a beautiful woman, gets money from publishing a paper and gets his scholarship. Seems Larry killed too soon, or did he? Honestly, it ends up being the whole, "It was all a dream" crap.

Larry is a bit of a prick at times, not sure what Eileen sees in him; granted, when she is Cathy he may be nicer as he is not being hounded by police for killing the professor. The cops do the Columbo thing even before Columbo in this thing and Larry just needs to learn patience or something.

In the real world, things do not work out well. My life sucks as I lost my fiance and now just go through days in a daze. Nothing has fallen into my lap and good things have never happened. Never murdered anyone though, maybe I should think about it and then afterwards everything will be peachy! NOT!!!
