The Brokenhearted

Acting is just okay. Doesnt seem like this film had any money behind it so the acting on that level is okay. The main guy is a bit too much like he's in a different movie. The rest of the cast is fine. The bad guy with the mask is the best becuase he doesn't say anything. If I sound like im being too hard on the film Im not. I thought this was an action film but there is so little action its more of a drama with bits of fighting here and there mostly at the end. Thats the main reason why I'm giving this movie a 6/10. The fighting is okay for what it is but its not really what i was looking for.

I watched The Brokenhearted on Amazon Prime, and I have to say, this indie action flick really caught me off guard. For a film on a tight budget, it does a surprisingly great job of defying the usual genre and financial limitations. The gritty, DIY filmmaking style gives it a raw, almost documentary-like feel that suits the story well. It's clear the filmmakers put their heart and soul into this, and that passion shows through.

The action sequences are well-choreographed, and while they're not as polished as big-budget blockbusters, they have a certain intensity and authenticity that's hard to ignore. You can really feel the effort that went into making every fight and stunt look real and impactful.

That being said, some of the production values are a bit lacking. The sound mixing, especially in dialogue-heavy scenes, can be a little off, and some of the camera work feels shaky or a bit rough around the edges. These minor issues don't take away too much from the experience, but they're definitely noticeable.

Despite its flaws, The Brokenhearted stands out as a solid independent action film that punches above its weight.

This is an ugly film, but in a good way. Its dark and grimy, and feels real. The story unfolds steadily, but the script occasionally feels rushed or underdeveloped, missing opportunities for greater depth. And the action scenes and violence, while infrequent, reveal the characters' struggles. The acting is actually quite good at times, with Sonny and Liz being the best characters. Other areas are spotty, but that's a given for something as low budget as this. The music is pretty good too, although there may actually be a little too much of it to the point it takes a way a little bit from the movie. But all in all, this is a pretty good film. Just don't expect non-stop action and you'll be fine.

I've never heard of ANYONE in this film, nor any of the filmmakers behind it. I caught this on Fawesome (of all places). Despite the RIDICULOUS amount of ads on the platform (at least 7-minutes worth each break!), I thoroughly and surprisingly enjoyed this. It's a story about childhood friends who grow up to walk different paths, and those paths threaten to destroy their relationships with each other. Very drama-heavy, especially for something that, from the trailer, looks to be marketed as an action film. I can see why some see this as a negative, but I also see this as a film that's trying to be more than just a "brainless action movie". Acting is great across the board, the action scenes work well within the story, it's decently edited, and the music fits the tone of the film. One complaint is that the pacing may put some off, since it starts off fairly slow setting up the characters. But it's worth it in the end. This is not a happy film, and it ends appropriately, which takes guts and gets kudos from me.

This is a movie about sadness. Quite rought around the edges, but still a good watch. Not very much fighting though. This is more a drama but still very good. The actor not profesional but still do a good job with there charactrers.

The story is very familiar. Nothing you have not seen before, but well done for a movie with no budget. You can see the makers did the best they could with what they had. Acting is all around good with some weak spot here and there, but quite interesting and I was engaged. The fighting when it happens is very good. Sometimes a little hard to watch because the camera moves a little too much or is too close but it felt real. I cared about what happen to the characters too.
