Michael Talbot-Haynes Film Threat Oct 22
9.5/10
The film captures the tone of an era where cocaine, cheap ludes, and greed ruled. Go to Full Review

2.75/5
As it stands, Luderdale works best when it leans on human emotion rather than its technical flourishes — a modest indie effort with heart beneath the haze. Go to Full Review

1/5
[Luderdale] is a bland crime thriller that messes up its own inconsistent design by never rising above its underdeveloped material. Go to Full Review

Vicky S Oct 28 Excellent 1980s crime drama that captures the spirit of a well-written, thought-provoking story with believable characters and enjoyable acting. See more Barbara S Oct 25 We thoroughly enjoyed the movie. The actors all were fantastic in their roles. We especially liked the surprise twist ending. All and all it was a very enjoyable movie. See more Mark L Oct 23 Having grown tired of the big budget Hollywood nonsense, the indie film world is were I gravitate to these days, so I took a shot on Luderdale. What a sneaky good little film this is. Really enjoyed the story line as well as the acting. Captured the time period very well. Some very clever twists thrown in as well. Definitely worth your time to check it out. See more Charles B Oct 22 For those who lived through that time and also those who wonder what that time was like, Luderdale is a must see. It captures the mood and intensity of the drug business, while developing in the view a complex empathy with the characters involved. On the surface it's a crime drama, but the extraordinary character development and twists and turns of the plot make the film. Highly recommend. See more John H Oct 22 Intriguing character studies of people on the run whose survival depends on developing trust, something hard to come by in their broken worlds. Great ending. Very good acting and well produced (directing, photography, sound, etc.) See more Ilene F Oct 21 I really enjoyed this indie film find. I loved the story with its twists and turns and especially all of the great performances. I highly recommend it. See more Read all reviews
