The Bastard Son

In this story the anti hero is someone you can genuinely sympathize with after viewing the event that sends him on a bloody Vendetta. Organized crime,Human Trafficking, and cold blooded murder are on full display,and the locales where the action scenes are filmed are outstandingly grim and neo noir-like,and they make you think this is happening right outside your window. Unfortunately I found some scenes very hard to follow,since some dialogue is too faint to hear. Many shots are out of focus. Others have the characters with their backs turned or their faces blotted out by by poor lighting, Or they're cut out of frame entirely. Some of the CGI could have been substituted with simple Practical FX and looked better. All in all this could have been a very good revenge story if more planning had been made by the film crew.

Making a film takes patience and time. This film fell flat on it's face. The editing was rushed, the sound was bad, the quality is not good as it looked like they used tinfoil as a tint. Most scenes you could not see the actors and the sound was so bad it might as well be an episode of Drunk History. If this was a comedy they nailed it. I am afraid it was not a comedy. 1 star for effort. Failure is constructive feedback that tells you to try a different approach to accomplish, they should have looked at editing this differently as well. Some scenes felt rushed and one scene tried to be funny but the only thing funny was the film.

I really enjoyed the showmanship of, "The Bastard Son," character portrayed by new actor Nelson Vazquez. He carried stage presence and emotions into this character which showcased his desire to get even in the film. His work in this film will be remembered. I enjoyed watching this film and saw it live in person --- at the Strand Theatre in Seymour, CT. During the world premiere the audience went crazy as, "The Bastard Son," got even and person after person laid down by his blade. They went crazy meaning they were applauding him for carrying out revenge.

There was a few small things I did not like in the film, however as a whole this movie had a great plot and was not strung out like many movies with the 2 hour run time. Kudos to the cast and crew. I look forward to see more films by Nelson and many of the talented actors in this production.

The film The Bastrd Son was like watching a film from the 1980s. The image quality isn't really good but back then you had other factors that made it good. Like a plot. Like action. Like funny lines. None of which this movie had. I watched it on Amazon Prime last night as a friend was in the film. What a mistake.

The only thing I enjoyed was the music but the music did not fit the scenes. There is only one thing I liked about the movie was that in the 2 hour run time I could shut it off and put a good movie on instead. The movie editing looked like it was done in Microsoft paint. Please, please don't watch this. Watch any other movie.

Absolutely I recommend this movie that has a realistic and true and relatelable story line.

Writers, producers, directors, crew and cast all great accomplishments. Alisa Velasquez definitely positive recognition in this movie and a promising future with her beautiful song, 'That Kind of Love'. A favorite now.

Addicting intense drama starts from beginning to the end with constant action with the brother and his love and loyalty for his family and not resting until he avenges his sister's assault and trauma. True to life story and reality of the violence happening every day in our cities and towns.
