Top Coat Cash

"Top Coat Cash" is a well written action movie that deserves to be watched. The scenario, although made up of several stories in one, is very realistic. We quickly become attached to the main character, Johnny, thanks to the interpretation of David Tittone. His performance is convincing from the beginning to the end, both in the intimate scenes and those of action. The pressure Johnny is under throughout is remarkably conveyed to the viewer through the intensity of each scene. Even though I'm not a gangster/bank robber aficionado, the 105 minutes of this film held my attention. Moreover, the quality of the cast as well as the diversity of the sets and costumes are all the more impressive for an independent film. This indie movie is definitely worth watching.

For reference, the director is my teacher and in class he reads his powerpoint presentations word for word with no enthusiasm whatsoever. He also takes months to grade assignments. Similarly enough, in the movie the acting made me physically cringe, and the plotline was simultaneously boring and confusing. I do not know how this movie has so many 10 star ratings, but I highly suspect that they are either people payed to leave reviews or people who worked on the movie themself. Do not watch it, it's not worth it.

This must be one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Let me rephrase; The worst I've even tried(!) to watch. I didn't make it past ten minutes. The camera work is bad, post production is bad, muzzle flash effect and blood effects are bad and the acting is appalling. It's like an amateur backyard production or some school play.

I decided to watch the 'movie' because at the time I'm writing this it scores 7.3 out of 10!? I don't understand how the IMDb rating can be so high? Have people been paid to write those positive reviews? That said, don't waste your time with this junk.

This thrilling indie flick combines crime drama and the world of MMA in a tense action filled package. Recommend to fans of both crime and martial arts movies!

In this tense film, Johnny(Tittone) struggles with his past mistakes. Labeled an absentee father by his strung out ex, he fights to reconnect with his son, Caleb. Johnny struggles against his instincts, in the ring the choices are simpler, punch or be punched. Visiting his old trainer he hopes to find a legitimate way to rebuild his life and liberate his son. Obstacles mount as a greedy bookie enters the picture and the authorities take interest in his return to the city.
