Ben Kenigsberg New York Times The title "Imperfections" doesn't lie: Viewers of David Singer's microbudgeted directorial debut will have to endure plenty of baggy scenes and awkward exchanges to enjoy the upside of this modest con movie ... Jul 27, 2017 Full Review Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times Plot-wise, it's a workable set-up, but, in his feature film debut, Broadway composer Singer ... seems to have no interest in adhering to traditional crime caper rhythms that put a premium on crisp pacing and creeping peril. Jul 27, 2017 Full Review Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter While Imperfections lives up to its name with its too clever by half plotline and failure to find a coherent tone, the indie film features enough enjoyable moments to overcome its flaws.

Bill Your review will help others decide whether to watch. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/21 Full Review troy k Not nearly as smart as it thinks it is, but not a terrible movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Fantastic writing, amazing cast, great comedy! Absolutely loved it! Especially Zach McGowan as Ray! David Singer knocked it out of the park with Imperfections! I can't wait to see his next movie! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Imperfections brings what audiences love from heist movies, charm, smart characters, and of course the criminal vibe that keeps viewers yearning for more of this cinematic theme. This film follows aspiring actress and practicing diamond courrier, Cassidy, as she finds herself entrenched in a scheme to fraud her employers insurance in order to make some serious money. This film's ability to maintain a fast paced plot, and connect so many of its characters through love triangles, scheming, and plot twists makes it a standout film amongst other heist movies. I'd highly recommend seeing Imperfections for a heist experience that's not only unique, but a fresh take on the theme. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member The director, David Singer, and cast do an amazing job in the stellar independent film Imperfections. From the stellar cinematography and lighting, the great use of colors and city landscape, to the amazing cast this film has everything an independent film could dream for. Imperfections is about a millennial searching for purpose named Cassidy who is a struggling actress with a mission to succeed, if only to show herself and the world that she can. Finding herself back at the bottom, relatable to many millennials today, she has to move back home with her mom in hopes of working her way back up and hopefully back out to Los Angeles to continue her acting career. When a intriguing, not so legal, offer comes up to could fund her way to Los Angeles, she is forced to decide if she's willing to possibly hurt those she loves for this opportunity to reach fame yet again. This film explores millennial struggles that make the film extremely relatable and intriguing especially with cast members such as Zach McGowan from the 100, Virginia Kull from HBO's Big Little Lies, and Ashton Holmes from Revenge. I highly recommend this film to anyone who has struggles with achieving their dream and love a good drama film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member I have no complaints about Imperfections! The film held my attention from start to finish with its laugh-out-loud script, its lovable characters, its suspenseful, unpredictable plot, and its great cinematography. ItÂ’s about an aspiring actress named Cassidy who goes to audition after audition, only to receive no job offers. To save money to move to Hollywood in pursuit of her dream, she takes a job as a diamond runner at her momÂ’s boyfriendÂ’s jewelry store where she gets caught up in a get-rich-quick heist that his son devised. The plan proves more complicated to execute when truths are revealed, other characters get involved, and motives are questioned. Such an entertaining film that will keep you guessing until the very end. This is a movie that anybody can relate to, whether it be because of the main characterÂ’s struggles with finding herself, the desperate desire to make quick cash, or simply the understanding that no oneÂ’s life is perfect. With the best aspects of comedy, action, mystery, and romance films, Imperfections has none. ItÂ’s a must-see! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
