Hammer

Good acting as the other reviewer pointed out but its very slow and a pretty dismal effort due to the writing and brings nothing new to the silver screen! Pass on this one unless you have a high threshold for boredom!

Many of the sequences and plot gyrations are unbelievable with a slurry of loose ends which leave you guessing.

Hammer is a really interesting film about family and how far you will go to stick by the ones you love . A father faces a personal crisis when he discovers his estranged son fleeing a botched drug deal. The two men try to undo the mess they are in but the more they try the more trouble they get in .

This is a pretty good little film. Not only is is entertaining, the acting is really good . I love watching Will Patton anyway but the standout performance is definitely from Mark O'Brian who plays the son , Chris .

It's pretty violent but not gratuitous and you can't help but get caught up in the situation they find themselves in. It's a good crime film that's all about family and loyalty.

It has a good ending too and it left me wanting more which must be a good thing .

Very surprised by this film. Wasn't expecting much, but really have respect for Will Patton and his ability to morph into any role. The story was very believable and the acting was involved and pretty driven. The standout role was by Mark O'Brian as Chris. Will Patton plays his father that gets dragged in to a dangerous situation that his estranged son has brought home. Good thriller that really has you rooting for the "good guys."

Exceptional acting and directing make this a must-see indie crime thriller. It's proof that every good film starts with a good script regardless of budget size. Will Patton was superb. The other unknowns all turned in riveting, believable performances. It's definitely Hammer time.
