American Pirates

This is a weird subject for a film, but they did a good job telling the story of these 3 idiots trying to sell bootleg movies on the streets of NY. It is heartfelt and hilarious at times. A must see.

I loved it from beginning to end. Too bad real American Pirates are becoming extinct because of streaming services. I just had a blast with this film. I use to kwow real bootleg pirates and they were cool and funny like the film.

If you like independent films and comedy, then you will love this film. It has a very interesting story that is very original. It's an underdog story about the little guys trying to leave their mark on the world, even if they are going about it in the wrong way.

... because the gags are so quickfire and chucked into the script with little thought as to whether they suit the plot (what plot?) No matter for me, because I was laughing all the way through, but I can appreciate why some people might not like that.

Like I said, don't go into this looking for a plot, because there isn't really anything other than the most basic premise to satisfy the distributors. I personally found it refreshing that the movie asked no requirement of me other than that I be able to laugh. This I did, loudly and frequently.

A final note. You will have a blast!

If you live in NY then you know about DVD bootleggers. They roam the street selling illegal copies of movies in theaters. This movie basically shows you these peoples lives and why they do what they do. It's never boring and funny at times. I really enjoyed it.
