Lake George

Their sketchy yet irresistible deal keeps you hooked, while the story's shady twists lead to unexpected redemption. It's fun, unpredictable, and has a SoCal local vibe that makes it easy to connect with. Cities like Thousand Oaks, Goleta, and Lake George in Mammoth Lakes, California, give the film a familiar, grounded feel for anyone who loves this area. The characters are quirky yet relatable, and their misadventures are packed with humor and heart. There were genuine outbursts of laughter in the theater during several scenes, showing just how well the comedy lands. I enjoyed it so much that I bought the movie to watch again at home and noticed even more little details the second time around. If you're looking for something entertaining with a mix of chaos, charm, and local love, I highly recommend this film!

This movie is my first time(to my knowledge), I have watched a movie starring either Shea Whigham or Carrie Coon. The movie moves rapidly, wondering what is going to happen next??? Shea does a great job, but Carrie...knocks it 'OUT OF THE PARK'! I was immediately captivated by her screen presence and ability to create a character with so much charisma, wit, cunning and resolve. No matter the obstacle, she has the solution. She was so convincing in that role, just a masterful performance, and a joy to watch! I find it rare, to watch a movie with this degree of quality in the script and acting. All the principals in the movie, gave great performances, Kudos to all; especially, Carrie!

This was a complete surprise and a real nice one.

This movie stands tall in its genre (neo-noir). The movie's greatest strength is the chemistry between the characters and how their relationships develop throughout the movie. In addition to that, this is a love letter to Southern California and is shot beautifully. The plot of the movie did more than enough to keep me interested, and the ending had me thinking for a few days, which is always a sign that the movie stuck with me. A lot of surprises along the way, see it. Both of the main characters had great chemistry, highly recommended. Gangsters and such.

An english language movie telling the story of a man (Shea Whigham) returning to public life for prison. He visits a well heeled gangster who orders him to perform one more job. This entails killing the gangsters old love interest.

The rest is an obvious play, Carrie Coon plays the love interest of the gangster and her trapped in the car with her would be killer goes through all the steps you can imagine. Her voice for some reason is strident, and just a little annoying. Something lacks on the audio here, it goes to the plot that she would be loud and demanding, but it does travel to the middle of ones brain!

The ending of the movie goes past it's climax and soon we cannot wait for it to be over. The great things about the movie are the pictures and photography are clear and beautiful. So many modern movies take the slow burn to hell and back, but this is very well paced. If you get a chance, do watch this one. Great plot, acting good, direction is good too. Pity about that sound....

Carrie Coons does an incredible job of making her role completely believable. You are pulled along on her story, never knowing if she is telling the truth or not. Great surprise ending. Ever since the Leftovers I've followed her movies and shows and she never failed to deliver. Wingenhame (?) is also very believable in his role. Never out of character. He was the yacht pilot in the Wolf of Wall Street. A character actor who excelled in this role.

Excellent pace, you never feel that the movie is dragging.

The supporting cast is also very good.

The actors actions are always consistent with the role they are playing.

This movie is far better than its rating.

You won't be disappointed watching it.
