Cemitério

Was Mel Gibson's inspiration that one mugshot of Nick Nolte looking completely insane in a Hawaiian shirt and frizzed-out psycho hair? Oh, but it gets better (worse?) when Mel goes into action Sad Max mode and tries to run ten feet in one scene. Yeah, that's just a whole lot of booze belly coming at us.

50 Cent is woefully miscast as the gruff police chief who I can only assume is "one day away from retirement" or "too old for this stuff" or any number of tropes.

Also, I am not entirely sure what the resolution to anything is - which makes the entire point of the movie moot. That is because it isn't played as a respectful representation of the true crimes it was exploiting...I mean, based off of.

Nearly every character has to explain in the most infantile or corny way what serial killers are, what this police procedure is, what they are doing and why. It all comes across as discount Criminal Minds/CSI filler.

Easily skippable nonsense.

Watching someone as notable as Mel Gibson be involved in such a mediocre film shows how the mighty have fallen. This movie has soap opera grade acting, local cable directing and camera angles, and low budget set/costume design. The premise of the film has a lot of potential but fell beyond flat.

I am a .50 cent fan, but the 10-20 min he's actually on screen is painful to say the least. You'll definitely need subtitles to understand a word he says, all his dialogue (most of the dialogue in the movie) and conversations come off as unnatural. You can tell that the actors/actresses memorized their lines in the parking lot the day of filming.

Save your money and Avoid this Tubi movie.

I wanted to like this - I really did. Despite some of his actions outside of film, I'm a long-time fan of Mel Gibson. And "50 Cent" has made an admirable turn into acting. Several of the other actors are familiar from other shows. Basically, it's got a good cast.

But this film is NOT good.

It's confusing at times (several times I had to ask my wife "what was that scene about?" - she had no answer); it drags on at times (I was pausing it to wonder how much longer it had); and generally wanders a path that leaves the viewer going, "Whatever."

To make matters worse, it had potential! Again - the cast is good. These are people who can act - and the acting is fine. But it's brought down by the writing, the plot, and the directing.

I won't post spoilers, but I'll just say that when it ended I felt...empty. Devoid of emotion. Kind of like, "THAT is how it ends?"

I give it a VERY GENEROUS 4 out of 10.

I live in Albuquerque and have followed and researched this particular case pretty closely with all available evidence and theories from other researchers and people.

This movie is nothing more than a imaginary tale developed by a Hollywood up and coming that wants to debut his craft.

The beginning, or the discovery of the crime scene was legitimate. It was a woman walking her dog beside an up subdivision at which the dog uncovers a human bone(femur bone) and the dogs owner who was a nurse was able to identify it as human and alert the authorities.

The remains of 11 women and a fetus were discovered buried in shallow graves in a certain area of the west mesa area of Albuquerque NM.

Something that was left out that was pretty important to the case was how the review of satellite images of the particular area of the west mesa between the the year of 2004 to 2009 showed the appearance of tire tracks and what appeared to be graves on the very lot of land that these bodies were discovered at in 2009. The interesting part is how the tracks increased in length off the desert dirt road and the number of supposed graves grew from one set of satellite images to the next. That development was conveniently left out of the movie which is sad.

Furthermore the actual suspects in the case were completely different than those portrayed in the movie as well as the events and characters that led to the narrowing down to the final suspects.

So this movie is pretty much a Hollywood caricature of what really happened in the high desert New Mexico city of Albuquerque. And it's unfortunate because it is basically a fictional exploitation of the victims of the West Mesa Bone Collector and their demise.

I have broken foot and the remote fell to the ground so I had to watch it all.

Some of the acting super bad. I couldn't make out 50 cents lines most of the time. High school plays have better actors.

The editing was the worst part. The back and forth to the memoirs was so terrible I couldn't tell on times what was going on.

The echo in the sound sounded like they used the same mics from porn movies (yes I watch porn) I am flabbergasted of how bad this was. The only ok thing in the movie was Mel Gibson and not even him being on the movie could've make it a bit good.

I feel like I watched a low budget movie. Ewww.
