Sleeping Dogs Lie

No pun intended. The three main characters do look good, while also being bad. Different degrees of bad that is. But the movie has some of that ... well hidden, with twists supposed to be surprising. And I reckon to a degree some of them are.

Overall the acting is a bit ... off and not in a good way. I still have a soft spot for thrillers with a low budget. You may feel differently about that. The movie may not have the strongest acting in it, but at least it looks good - again no pun intended, meaning the cinematography. Though nothing to get insane about either ...

Dogs are cool, but there's not enough homeless cats in it. Joanna Zanella is a bbbbbeast! Tawlmbout a work ethnic. I aksed Jay about it, and he liked it, so it's really a 20/10 for both of us. What else ya got, Joanna?

Armando gets caught cheating on his wife Eleni with Luna the secratary. Eleni kidnaps the two of them in hopes of getting the password for a secret account Armando set up under Luna's name holding money stolen from a Japanese mob client. The premise of this movie is decent, however certain scenes drag on and some of the twists don't make sense. I did like the cinematography and the three lead actors were decent.

Wanted a short-form flick to watch and gave Sleeping Dogs Lie a shot. Directed by Konstantinos Kovas, the film delivers on its premise of a slippery accountant finding himself in a precarious situation when abducted by his wife and side-piece secretary. There's a lot of genuine intrigue as to who is screwing over who, with the antics taking an unexpected turn half-way through the film. Solid performances and a keen eye in terms of cinematography, with especially nice photography once out in the Southern Californian desert. Give it a watch!

She is a very talented and you can tell she works hard at everything she does.
