Featured reviews
High rating for this movie comes from false reviews, this is a typical low budget movie with pretty bad cast, poor music choice, bad writing, one or two decent efforts at acting, but nothing else. Not worth watching, overall feel is weird with some cringe and annoying moments.
This film looks promising for the first few minutes when two American teens are kidnapped for an obvious purpose, but after that it loses its way. As ever when undercover police and other agencies get involved in drug dealing and such, the plot can become confusing, and it does so here. Leaving all that aside, would a cartel or anyone consider running drugs into the US using a submarine when common or garden boats, planes and motor vehicles can be used just as effectively, especially if coupled with the strategic bribing of officials? Added to its implausibility is the bizarre ending. The best advice that can be given here is don't do drugs, and don't watch films about them, at least not films like this one.
I really had a good laugh at this, but it isn't a comedy. It is just hilarious in parts at the script or other things.
The acting isn't the worst I've seen although not great, but the script and bad camera shots that make it worse.
I laughed out loud in parts and I wasn't alone.

Grate action, writing, directing and acting. Especially with the budget. Jen Barbeito's acting stood out. Impressive. Definitely worth a watch
