Bayou Caviar - Il prezzo da pagare

The movie is so horrible that I took the time to create an account so that I could write a review to try and save people from wasting 2 hours of their life. HORRIBLE plot, HORRIBLE flow, HORRIBLE acting

The characters make so many stupid mistakes I had to wonder if they weren't going for a Coen Brothers dark humor effect. It doesn't seem like it for most of the movie but the stupid mistakes made by the characters are just too stupid to be taken seriously. I suppose you could say it strikes a blow for exploited women but not in a very meaningful way. Watch it just to see if you like it, but don't spend much money to do so, I think you'll feel robbed.

Apparently every reviewer here has a very low opinion about this movie and I wonder why? I won't say Bayou Caviar is a masterpiece, very far from that, but it entertained me for a couple hours and that's all I was looking for. The cast with Cuba Gooding Jr., Femke Janssen and Richard Dreyffus was already something to look forward to, and they all did their job like they're supposed to so absolutely no complaints from me for that. The story could have been better, even though I thought it wasn't bad at all, maybe a bit too long but that's about it. All in all this movie deserves better than the reviews it gets.

It's definitely not the worst movie out there but it just drags on and on with almost no purpose. It's like the scenes have just been pasted one after another without any real continuity and the characters are not developped enough for us to relate with any of them. Subsequently, we don't care what will happen to them at all. The plot is also a bit convoluted and the whole thing jut feels amateurish

For a directorial debut, Bayou Caviar is a thoughtful, if sometimes unevenly paced film. Cuba Gooding Jr., who wrote and directed, is always watchable, as are Richard Dreyfuss and Famke Janssen.
