Como Sair de Buffalo

Enjoyed the acting; subject matter; spoofing of Buffalo. Started interesting, but about half way it just plateaued & felt too contrived. Central character never really developed a moral hook for me. The credits mentioned $13 trillion National Debt w/medical & student listed as most prevalent. Those numbers are for 2018, now the National Debt (mid 2020) is $25 trillion (and growing), and for consumer debt (movie listed 71 million people, but now 137 million). It's largely home payments followed by medical then student & car & credit card. Paying it all off (half is owned by foreign interests) is left to future generations courtesy of Trump (in part Covid necessary; in part tax breaks for wealthy; in part for re-election).

The acting and story line here were great. A great cast and kept me laughing the whole time.

7.1

But like other reviewers have said, the plot just fell apart. This movie had some potential to be really clever and hit a home run, but it fell short of the mark. I thought Zoey Deutch did a great job. She is a great actress.

I saw a lot of complains and critics about his film, comparing it to Wolves of Walls Street, etc. The way I see it, Buffaloed is enjoyable, Zoey Deutch has the charms and naughtiness playing con artist. Buffaloed delivers entertainment with middle class flare and street wise cracks. Better than what I have expected. As for the comparison, it's leaning towards Legally Blond in Debt Collecting.

This film is quite entertaining, as it is a different kind of underdog story mixed with romantic comedy elements. The story is quite engaging. I enjoyed watching it.
