      craig a This drek almost makes the "so bad it's good" category. Not quite, though. That'd be a step-up, ratings wise. Horrible acting, a ferociously bad script, and all the tension of a 40 year old frayed elastic band. It's not movie-making, it's pointing a camera somewhere and hoping for the best. Inexplicable how junk like this attracts financial backing. Bonus: more "f" words per minute than you can believe. Don't bother with this one. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member F*** is used like you might hear at an inner city skate park!! This is the worst script, story, film, anything, it's all the worst! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/12/21 Full Review Audience Member Interesting, Unique thriller. Non-Stop action, There's a bank heist going on but you may forget that as there are so many action filled sub-plots happening. This is a one of a kind movie that will keep you on the seat of your pants. A chess contest is happening as the action continues. A chess match? "Check" this thriller out. You won't be disappointed. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member This happens to be on at my cable channel. Don't watch it, the script literally revolves around the word f*ck. Not much dialogue. Weak acting. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member HORRIBLE movie! The writers of this movie are terrible and absolutely and totally untalented. I wasted an hour and a half of my life I can never get back. Every other word is the "F" word! That is not an exaggeration. I would suspect the "F" word is used no less than 300 times during this movie, with every sentence including that one vulgar word. Even without the vulgarities and foul language, the movie is terrible. I can't believe that some typically good actors participated in this horrific movie. A complete and total disappointment is an understatement. Do NOT waste your time watching this. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I signed up for Rotten Tomatoes just to review this movie as a public service to other movie lovers. OMG this is awful! I walked out after 30 minutes. No discernible story arc. Simply vignettes intended to be artsy but more just pointless. Bad writing, bad editing. Pointless.
