Crimes em Hollywood

I don't write many reviews so when I do the movie has to be really good (or really, really bad). This movies is funny, witty and keeps you guessing. Solid acting all around, not too long and had some quirky characters to keeps things interesting. Definitely one of the better movies I've seen this year. You could say this type of film has been made before and you're probably right - but it's unique and entertaining enough for me to easily recommend it.

Wow, while most of Hollywood is trying hard to destroy Mel Gibson he is proving strongly why he can't be taken down. Great performance by a great actor. He has seriously turned into SEAN Connery more he ages.... Well made film, kinda made me think of Fletch with many great moments... Don't let judgement cloud your mind here.

I personally don't get on with arty style productions.

I hate that the camera is rarely straight and level or we have to watch the scene unfold from behind a fan, inside a cupboard or from the building opposite.

So at first I was not impressed by this.

But I did actually grow to like it.

This has a real film noir feel about it as the main character slugs it out with thugs between meeting with alluring fem-fatal.

There is a mystery here that you can solve yourself but it is not really Earth shattering.

I watched this with my girlfriend and we both enjoyed it.

The characters are quirky and interesting and I enjoyed the way the story unfolded in several layers.

And Charlie Hunnam has never been gone. Ex-LAPD cop Charlie Waldo (Charlie Hunnam) descends from his hill where he retired in order to investigate a high-profile murder. TV Actor Alastair Pinch (Mel Gibson) stands accused of murdering his wife, Monica. The plot and storyline are very smooth. This movie never gets boring. And we are witnessing the rebirth of Mel Gibson. Finally he delivers again. Charlie Hunnam never disappoints. What an acting performance. Where the story lacks originality, the acting never fails. The movie is fast paced and funny. A well-deserved 7/10 for never getting bored to death!

Yes its simple and filled with cliché's but still very enjoyable. Could be better? Of course. Could be much worse? Hell yeah. So I'll take what i can here.
