Audience Member Interesting low-budget flick. Not great, but some solid moments. An early performance by Adrian Brody is by far the best thing in it. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Definitely without Adrien this movie would be a total waste of time. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Some bad scenes, even worse music, and really a story that isn't so much driven by any emotion than it is whiny stupidity. The film felt like a playground's version of Goodfellas, in a way where it is lacking and minimally motivated. Considering the type of films Eric Bross does, this'll (sadly) probably be his best... but hey at least he scored Brody. Not even he could save this film.. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Poorly acted (save for Brody) and clumsily told, this movie reeks of independent filmmaking. In the bad sense... The characters are silly with flatness and the plot is so predictable as to be embarrassing. I'd suggest skipping this one. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member i dont really remember much from this film Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member really underrated film starring adrien brody. feels alot like scorsese's mean streets but better, more realistic and no constant bloody music playing in the background. a pure, hard, gritty and in your face drama about trying to make it off the breadline. brody is an ace actor. gotta love his work Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
