Odds Are

Actually its not as bad as a 1 or two star.

It does tell the story of the murder of Lawrence Mullholland but there isnt really much tension or suspense in the movie and a lot of implausible situations which usually one would ignore as just being a movie but in this case are more noticeable because the movie doesn't really hold your attention after the first 20- minutes!

Contrary to other reviewers the ending was appropriate because it was what happened, you can't tell a true story and then change the end so it suits the narrative but unfortunately the acting was really sub-par from all involved which did not help.

Its an average watch, not great but then again its not as bad as some of the reviewers are making out but if you are looking for a gripping thriller this is not it!

One word can actually sum it up -> "MEH"! Not great, not bad just meh!

I did actually watch the whole thing with zero expectations. Hard to do with horror but otherwise so many end up being disappointing. Even the "based on true events" lure couldn't save this movie! I found myself rolling my eyes and groaning about every ten minutes right from the start. To sum it up, if you enjoy movies where main characters do EVERYTHING WRONG all of the time then you might not hate it. Honestly I'm tempted to rewatch it with bad 80's music because as a horror spoof it might be more entertaining! Lol.

Ok I can tot get this movie was made in a few days on an extremely below low budget but it was still stupid af. The actress were very pretty and would be great in a better movies. Also liked the bad guy he was good as a bad guy but then when he skipped around and danced he lost points with me. When you have a based on or true story, at least have the facts to back it up. All I found was something happened in Eastern Europe so the directors daughter and wife wanted a movie made about it.

I tried googling ALL the names at the end and no such true story could be found. Maybe it was a story the daughter and wife heard about; but never fact checked so they decided to go and make a crappy movie about it anyways. Because this was such a far fetched movie that even Clifford would have a hard time catching the point!

A very very very stupid movie! I hate it when directors make you look stupid, actions were so unreal! I didnt even continue watching it.

Okay....-1 Star For Making Us Read Annoying Texts at the beginning...

I hope the movie doesn't do this again.

-1 Star For Goof, One time they didn't do that Odds Are #'s they just proposed a challenge and went right to it. That sorta defeats the whole purpose.

+1 Star For 'History' It encourages critical thinking and Original Thought.... the 'bad' guy is pretty cool And the 'bad' guy gets a pretty raw deal himself.

Physics says there is no way dude could have made jump from rooftop to pool. This really should be a -1 but hey.... it followed a lesson about History so I'm giving it a pass.

Alright the final third of this movie was a little bit of hit and miss. Really didn't affect the score much.

The moral really being 'Play Stupid Games... Win Stupid Prizes.....

4/10
