Corri e spara

A low budget film that punches above it's weight class. A clever idea for a film. If the budget was bumped up, they had an A-list actor and if wrote it less as a horror film; I could see this getting a following.

I had forgotten my IMDB credentials but this movie was so manure that I had to go through the extra work to leave this review.

If you have seen The Room, this is a sequel to that. Not thematically but otherwise. Not as funny, but definitely cringe-inducing in such a fashion that it will leave your face permanently disfigured.

Script is written by a child who likes dank memes, has never heard of "show, don't tell" nor has any idea how to people speak. Combine that with director that has no idea how to move the movie forward and just makes the most banal choices. Useless main character with whiny attitude. Even more useless bad guys with deep philosophical thoughts like "I like to imagine eating T-Rex when I am eating chicken". Terrible acting. Plot twists that make your hand start searching for nearest box cutter to end your life so you would stop feeling this deep vicarious embarrassment. This movie has it all.

The only thing that keeps you watching this thing is the curiosity on what idiotic thing will happen next. I guess that counts for something.

Would not call it B movie gold but give it a shot there are much worse big studio films. Some of the story is cliche however their few unique character development moments that would be fun to watch in a limited series. Bumped it a star for the cowboy bebop reference!

Nothing classic, but an enjoyable little contained thriller. The central macguffin scene is an entertaining gag, there's some decent gore chase setpieces. All in all it feels like a first time director who hasn't quite gotten a handle on how to connect scenes and move the story along naturally. Lots of the movie takes place in a handfull of locations, and where a more experienced director (or maybe a larget budget) can make a few settings maintain momentum, here it feels much more like treading water waiting for the next action.

It's probably not going to be a favorite of anyone watching, but a few good kills, decent performances, and flair in the writing make it worth a stream.

Also, if you like Richard Kind, he gets a few monologues and to hang out in a nice suit, so there's that.

Criminal operator Ray (Ben Milliken) barely escapes with his life. He's hiding from a crime lord. He tries to go straight with an insurance job, his girlfriend, and her son. Grayson (Richard Kind) discovers his secret and blackmails him into one last job. It goes badly and he encounters Billings (Brad William Henke).

This is a small Australian crime thriller comedy. Ben Milliken is not quite leading man material but that's fine. Indies have limitations. The story is pretty basic except for the Mandela effect. That's a fun twist. My one big issue is that Ray should be smarter. He's set up as a superior street-smart criminal. When the tire gets slashed, he should know right away that someone is coming after the package. He can't waste time changing the tire. He needs to run and hide. He's also a little slow in a few other times. It's annoying when a smart character isn't quite so smart. The writing also has a few hiccups. A lot of this needs to be a bit smarter.
