Crimes e Trapaças

So I just downloaded this movie last night (for free thank god) because I have literally seen every other movie out there. What a complete ClusterF this was. The film was made in 2014 when Jason Lee's career had basically already evaporated but even still, dude, did you read the script or meet with the film student who directed this beforehand? Jason looked so disinterested on screen that it was distracting. He must've really needed ten thousand dollars at the time. Katie Sackhoff wasn't much better. Decent to look at but came across as apathetic. Cheesy one-liners, low production values, and a director with no clue had me rolling my eyes for an hour and a half.

A great B film that has been overlooked. Fine cast that turn in excellent performances. Actors you have seen quite often really shine here. Milo brings it home, sly Stallone would be proud. Do not let this one pass you by especially if you are crime genre fan.

Just saw this and was terribly disappointed. I'm a fan of Robert Patrick but unfortunately he had a smaller role in this movie. The acting by everyone was average and almost seemed as if they all sort of phoned in their performances. Not sure if this was the directors fault or just a lack of interest in the material by the cast, but it really affected the film. The story covered no new ground and felt quite dated which made it a bit boring. It didn't help that the storyline was not very original. The dialogue was filled with clichés and the humor missed its mark. There's some action, but definitely nothing too engaging or inventive. There are so many better action dramas to watch than this one. Tell seemed to miss the mark in most areas and consequently wasn't worth the time to watch it. I gave this a 3 star rating because I like Robert Patrick, but otherwise I would have rated this even lower.

Pretty much unwatchable. Lousy script. Amatuerish direction. Choppy editing. Sub-standard production values.

Number 1: Whoever hired a gaffer to be the director should be banned from making films altogether. Number 2: Whoever read this script and decided to purchase it from the 'writer' (a bit TV actor from four decades ago) should stick with reading Teen Vogue. Number 3: Whoever cast Milo in the lead role of this should be demoted to craft services. Number 4: Whoever rated this film higher than 2 or 3 stars was directly involved in the film.

Yes...it really is that bad!

I hate for this to sound cliché, but this is one of the worst action comedies ever made. Whoever wrote this jive should seek another profession. It's not humorous at all! If you must forge ahead, go back to school and learn your craft or, at the very least, take the time to study action comedies that work like "In Bruges," "Hot Fuzz," "Kick-Ass," etc etc. The acting in this was downright foolish. Some of these actors have been in watchable shows before but it looked like they were trying so bloody hard to make whatever they were given work, that it came across like one big giant improvisation gone very wrong. Every character in this is git and not much differentiates one from another. I'm sure some of this has to be attributed to the director who by now, is likely wondering if waiting tables is what the future holds after this lackluster attempt. I rated this 2 stars because they were clever enough to compile a trailer that duped me into renting this. Fool me once, shame on you...
