Red Stone

OK, the good points:

1) great camera work 2) good music 3) some great actors

the bad points:

A) shockingly poor story B) totally unbelievable characters C) WAY too slow D) simply nothing to get invested in.

How on earth did something this bad every raise the budget to get made?

I can't stress enough how bored I was watching this film. This wannabe John Wick picture fails in every part of the process of movie-making and that is why I mostly blame the director Derek Presley for the disappointment this film is. Except for Neal McDnough (who is doing what he can to save this picture) every character/actor seems bored, confused and actually bad at acting. Than you have the story itself with many random unexplained scenes and long slow camera shots, which I believe were an attempt at some more "refined" camera work, but felt like the director forgot to say "cut!" instead. Maybe with some editing it could have been salvageable, but as it is I cannot recommend it.

Would like to say that it's a slow burner, but it never really got hotter than lukewarm. The movie was too long and had too many dialog pauses, not much pace at all. If you are totally bored then I'd recommend it, just don't expect Boon (Neal McDonough) to save it, he was supposed to be a A dangerous hitman - I must have missed it.

Who makes this stuff?!

Low budget amateur hour effort from people who should have known better.

I just can't believe it.

These people should stick to whatever they were doing before they decided to make movies because they sure don't seem to have the talent for this field.

An absolute embarrassment.

Seems like they are trying to be camp but it comes across slow and dumb. If you like pure violence... you will be happy. If you are looking for action... the overall story here is lacking.
