Dead on Arrival

This film caught my attention on my cable provider for on-demand. So I looked it up on IMDB and checked out the user reviews and noticed some nasty comments about the film. I decided to also look at the external cretics reviews for the film and noticed twice the apposite critical reviews on the film. I checked out the sources behind the critic reviews and they all checked out legit. I saw the film last night and actually enjoyed it very much, so I guess the critics were right about the film and I have no idea why some people are talking nasty about it. I think I It was an entertaining ride.

Plot was week, acting poor. I watched it for the high rating but this movie is muck

I give this film a max of 4 stars,because its a non-impressive and low cost production,with below average acting cast, a complex plot that is rather simple,but it kills itself because its too slow. what i really miss from this louisiana based d-riller is the lack of lousiana dialect in the dialouges,not a single person speaks the good ol' southern sway.not even the local police, nor even the hookers or gangsters does.that is a lousy job. its a film of money,vaccines,poisoning,hookers,fine boats and cars,blood,deceift,crooked police and shadow hals.. whats the 4 stars for? well,nice cinematography and well driven musical score (although not my taste), and some parts of the storys locations are good. wanna see it again,definately not

Im a fan of the original DOA, the 1950 one. There's nothing like the original really but it kept my interest. I laughed a few times at the bumbling gangsters and DB Sweeney. I thought for an indi it was well done. The swamp shots brought me back... i lived in New orleans for 2 years. Nice camera work and music.

Loved the locations! Man in the boat was probably the most Louisiana relatable character.
