Blood Money - A qualsiasi costo

Instead of spoiler alert this is a STINKER alert! Total waste of time. I should have given it 1 star, but because I am a loyal John Cusack fan I couldn't bring myself to do it...Terrible acting, poor plot and very week script. Netflix has it listed as 5 stars just to get you to watch it. If you want a movie to aggravate you this is the one to see. Cusack is good at being bad, but even this movie couldn't bring the goodness out. I don't have any history to compare Willa Fitzgerald's performance to, so it is hard to say if she needs acting lessons, but I can say she made me want to shoot her just to shut her up!

In 1972 a passenger boarded a commercial flight using the name D B Cooper. He parachuted somewhere over the pacific NW with a lot of stolen money and was never seen again. Years later some money was found that was linked to the robbery and really no other clues were ever located. Many have speculated and some have searched for the missing money. This movie obviously uses this event as a basis for the movie. It is a good idea to start but poorly written dialog. The actors minus John Cusack, are not good or believable.

I got the impression people were trying to make a good film and perhaps the director has a bright future ahead, The actors need some more seasoning (except for Cusack, whom I couldn't help but feel bad for, seeing him in this turkey).The end product was underdone. Unsympathetic characters and a banal script conspired to induce yawns.

Me: "Who are you rooting for" My dad: "Nobody I just want the girl to die"

Well, I finished it. But really. How hysterical and insanely weird can one girl get? It was just unbelievable that anyone would behave that way. It became rather laughable. One thing: if you are hiding in the woods from a homicidal man with a gun who is very keen to find you, you do not shout at the top of your voice during an extended and entirely unnecessary argument with yourself. In an echo chamber. And on the subject of characters being believable, what WAS John Cusack? A reluctant killer? Homicidal maniac? White collar worker turned to the dark side? Sweet chap really, who is just a bit clumsy when around guns? Therapist/ psychologist? Make your mind up. I don't know what is going on with Sky movies. It seems they show any old crap in order to fulfil their mission statement to put on a new premiere every day. A Channel 5 afternoon movie at best.
