Against the Jab

This was a great movie. I was happy to see some actors I have grown up with like Leon. The movie played the line well between comedy and drama, which seemed to keep you on the edge of your seat. I like the way DJ Mike's wife portrayed a grieving wife and convinced me of what I so encounter at home when a mysterious phone call or number shows up on my phone.

I also enjoyed the great landscape and scenic shots of our Boston. The Director does a great job of showing you Boston and it's iconic buildings. I caught myself saying "I know where that is!" more often than not.

As a fellow prankster, I too wonder "how far is too far?" This movie shows you exactly what happens when it does go "too far." ;)

I saw "Against The Jab" this past week. This movie is put together very well. People hear the term independent film and assume that those type of films are sub par, all that term means is that a movie studio didn't help with the film it was funded independently. This film sets the bar for Boston independent films. It has the look of Hollywood and was filmed in Boston. Boston should be proud to have a film like this that features not only a very historic city but the actors that came from the city. Everything about this movie works, from the story all the way to the acting. "Against The Jab" is a definite must see. If you don't see it you are really missing out. This movie is funny and Dramatic at the same time. Congratulations to the director for directing such a great cast and making the movie so real. He really brought out the best in the actors. Leon, Clara Lago, and Lonette McKee were great, but you have to give it to the Boston Actors, they really hung in their with these Hollywood actors and nailed their performance. I can not say enough about this movie. It was a lot of fun to watch and it never got old. It is a great movie.

Rarely do I see any movie twice, but I have watched "Against The Jab" four times, and it was just as compelling and funny the forth time as it was the first time I watched it. The movie is very relevant to today's culture and every day life. The cast did an amazing job. As someone who spent a huge chunk of his life in the greater Boston area, this movie struck a chord with me. Leon Robinson was masterful. The movie is directed by Patrick Jerome, remember this name because I have no doubt that his talent is on par with the likes of John Singleton and Spike Lee. It's intelligently written and brilliantly executed, t's a must see for those who enjoy suspense and laughter. The plot will keep you guessing till the very end.

One of the best movies I have seen in recent times. It is a perfect blend of comedy and mystery. It keeps you engrossed till the very end. I also enjoyed the beauty of Boston in the movie. Mr. Jerome has done an amazing job. All the actors in the movie were fantastic. Leon Robinson has done a wonderful job as a Radio Jockey. The international cast also did a commendable job. The story line is very strong. Emotions run very high while watching the movie and also the climax is jaw dropping. Screenplay and cinematography have the lifted the movie to a new level. Once again, a wonderful experience. I highly recommend everyone to watch this movie!!!!!!

Great fun as a jazzy radio show host takes you on a prank call journey - assuming before the days of caller ID! Mini clips within the film highlight current issues, brought about using both drama and humor. Actor Scott Neufville was particularly effective in creating the dual drama/comic character. Scenes from the film comically highlight through twists, turns and consequences of some chose we may encounter in life. The prank calls, mix of characters, built-on plot along side Boston scenery makes for a recipe of laugher and a fun night out. Nice to see a film that was produced and filmed in Boston while incorporating local talent. I highly recommend seeing this film. However, do beware of the next time you answer your phone!
