The Lost Samaritan

This flick tells the Story of a clerk by the name of William Archer, who works hard at his job as an accountant and gets very little in return. Although this movie is about this person, who has the most unusual day of his life, the most interesting characters are the two killers that are after him. Both of them are portrayed in a very unique and humane way. The usual movie killer is portrayed as very cold and perfectionist but not these two guys, but they are also no idiots. It find it very difficult to describe them without spoiling the story for you. I can only recommend that you watch this flick and make your own opinion.

low budget bad story line couldn't wait for it to finish really! will archer {boone out of lost} is the only one with any acting skills, am surprised he did the movie. How could these professional Actors, Producers, and even the Janitor not see how precitable and bad this movie was before releasing it? I assure you that if I had the money to re-make this movie I could improve it 110 per cent, and I have never made a movie, or even acted in a play but could probably do better!!o I wish I could line everyone up who had anything to do with this movie, and slap them for insulting my intelligence avoid if you can!

2/10

This film is by far the worst i have ever seen!! It could very well be the worst movie in human history!! I thought it would be a thrilling story but it kind of looks like a high school project done by students aiming very low.. The acting is so bad that i wanted to cry a some points and the whole story line is so predictable and badly done. Im sorry but no one in their right mind could like this film. Its almost like i want people to watch it just so they could share the experience of this high level crap movie. So.. My advice is to watch it some day when your mood is up, so you wont commit suicide! But please, watch it! You will surtenly regret it!

I have just finished watching this movie on TV and I hurried here to say how impressed I am by the superb craftsmanship behind it. This is not your average crime movie and I'm absolutely stunned to read the fiercely negative reviews by other posters. Didn't they notice the talented cast, the original touch of the creators and, most of all, the movie's emphasis on the power of coincidence?

Yes, there are many coincidences in this movie. As a matter of fact, as far as I'm concerned, it shows how a long string of unfortunate coincidences can move your life forward and determine your fate. As someone who has observed this aspect of life for a long time, I am beyond delighted to see how the authors of the movie, the person who conceived and wrote the script, are drawing attention to this as coincidence is something most people fail to notice. Is this why most posters on this page failed to see what is plain to me?

I guess they expected to see a plot that nobody has ever seen before. That's understandable but not everything that can make a movie great. Sometimes the beauty is in the details or in the way they fall and meet together. This is one of those rare movies for me. Please note that I haven't said a thing about the plot because I don't want to spoil it for you and get banned from IMDb - you have all the power to see it and decide for yourself and disagree with me if you wish, for that's your right. I just want to attract your attention to what I think is its defining feature.

I also believe that the story is very logical, indeed. Perhaps it is because, having seen how life has been a chain of coincidences for many people around, this movie appears entirely realistic to me. Beyond realistic, in fact. Others could call it "contrived" for the same reason but I would and will not. It just takes a pair of eyes and a bit of experience in the movie's direction to fully accept and agree with its viewpoint.

Thank you for listening and I wish a pleasant viewing to anyone who will brave the negative reviews.

I got this movie @ one of the HAJI stores here I IRAQ. They use the comments from IMDb to describe the video. So they used the comment "This film is by far the worst I have ever seen.", it was as good as sold. No yes this is a bad film, it's about 10 years too late. But its low-grade budget. the worst film are the ones high-budget good cast but just trivial drivel and bull-crap dialog.

There's a scene in which the hero escapes from the bad guys. The bad guys look at his license plate and hunt him down. The problem is the license plate is obviously European. Hpowever a few scenes later the bad guys identify themselves as FBI agents (to the local American police department). Now this isn't the BOURNE identity so why are American Law Enforcement chasing this guy in a foreign country unless they're supposed to be in America. Yes it's a foreign production of Actors trying to do a cheesy American film. Here this guy is schlep, wife's cheating on him, bad at his job. the only joy he has in his life is this beautiful waitress at the local diner who obviously has a crush on him. He see's something at work he wasn't supposed to, and the hunt is on to kill him. (I.E. Pelican Brief, The FIRM, etc. etc.)No exotic locations or thrilling car chases but a movie just the same.

To say the movie was telegraphing scenes is a disgrace to the fast moving telegraph. A far more accurate description was they were boxed, addressed then sat in the back of the mini-van for a month, before someone finally mailed them.
