Clyde Cooper

There were some good lines, a good twist, a good concept. But seriously it was made cheaply and it shows. There was some terrible direction with stunted editing. It was an old and tired trope with very little to make it worthy. It would not surprise me if it gets some terrible reviews.

That said I did laugh a few times, at the end. It was good for a student work. But this was not what I would call a blockbuster film.

A neonoir puzzler in the spirit of classic Chandler/Bogart flicks but with a protagonist who vapes instead of chain smokes. Jordi Vilasuso is an extremely charismatic gumshoe. Like any strong detective movie, it bears (and practically requires) repeated viewings. Whether or not you can piece together the plot on a first watch, the scene-to-scene action is delivered with flair, energetic pace, and cool visual concepts. Genre aside, this is an indie thriller with high production value and a dynamic ensemble cast. Clyde Cooper has the potential to become a fictional universe in its own right.

A really good detective movie in the old film noir tradition. All the elements are there, the P.I., the missing woman, a body, and some strange characters. The real mystery lies elsewhere, and it has more to do with who these people are and how they stand with each other and the world.

This movie is astonishing! I usually don't enjoy the old noir type of movies, so I was a bit sceptical at first. The movie starts slowly, but with bit of patience, you get one of the best experiences a movie could provide- a detective story filled with drama, pretty girls and a lot of action. Can't wait for a second one!

I loved this modern film-noir. It's highly recommended. As mysteries go, this movie is pretty effective one. It is entertaining, and detective Cooper is very enjoyable. The big puzzle at the center of the film is revealed towards the end, and Cooper has a real funny inner monologue there. It was fun to watch!
