Pay the Lady

This film was unexpectedly good. You never know what you're going to get with some of these urban thrillers. I mean it's more of noir than straight up thriller. It was sexy, well acted, and Lauryn Ford seems to be a star in the making. The other cast was also excellent with Maurice Whitfield playing the menacing heavy and Dushaun Thompson playing his clever lieutenant. There is also some fun comic relief in the film with Missira Ross, David Jia, and Robert Dobson adding some nice levity to a pretty intense film. If the credits are to be believed there will another one. I'd go on this ride again.

I think this movie was incredibly intriguing after seeing it. I was first fascinated in the plot. It was incredibly relevant to me and kept my attention throughout the movie. Having gone through a similar experience, I was able to identify with the primary female lead character and her predicament in particular. The actors all performed remarkably well and effectively carried the narrative. The narrative was well-spirited and it had just the right amount of comedy to balance off the tension. Additionally, the camera quality was excellent. The visual was crystal-clear and sharp, giving everything a revitalizing appearance. It did not let me down. I urge everyone to watch this movie "Pay The Lady".

Pay the Lady brings a fresh vibe to the classic crime boss genre, and it's a total win.

A refreshing spin on the classic crime boss themed movie, "Pay the Lady" doesn't disappoint. Lauren Floyd as "Star" plays a character that display a wide range of emotions. From innocent, kept, princess to calculating shero; Lauren definitely displays her acting chops.

Dushaun Thompson stole every scene he performed. His performance was reminiscent of how Ashton Kutcher did the same in "That 70's Show." He definitely has to be a staple in this trilogy.

Missira Ross's character, "Pam," also provided some much needed comic relief to such a dramatic situation. Interestingly, she ends up being much more than a supporting character.

For an independent film, production quality was TOP NOTCH. We were treated to some interesting cinematography. I can't wait for the next one!!!

Star Robinson decides she is tired of being abused and decides to use every tool at her disposal to rise up against her abuser and walk away with her dignity and his money. The characters are well-drawn and they are smart. Star Robinson must stay one step ahead, needing to be seductive, cunning and ruthless if she is going to come out alive.

"Pay The Lady" creates a spacious world, where every character, large and small, has plausible motivations. Lauryn Ford carries this movie with a wonderful performance, where you see the character evolve from victim to badass. Dushaun Thompson gives a layered performance that allows his character to rise above a caricature of the evil crime boss.
